installment of the petros And Money Show. Because we are

to our left. We are in our iHeart Radio slash
AM five seventy LA Sports Suite preparing for Game three.

(01:30):
Tyler glassnow on the mound against an opener. As Tim
Kates made us aware Ashby. Ashby will get the start
like he did in game one, and first pitch will
be just after three pm, hence us being here on
location in the eleven o'clock hour prepping for a noon
start that technically should have begun at eleven fifty eight

(01:53):
and thirty seconds. But thank you for the added time,
Katie to drag a show over the finish line before
we got started.

Speaker 3 (01:59):
Some people just cant stretch their necks and crane their
necks through those last ninety seconds. Matt, and we understand,
we know why, and it's because they're old. But we
here on the Petrosen Money Show. No offense, Craig, but
we here on the Petrosen Money Show.

Speaker 4 (02:17):
Greg eats like a twelve year old, and as before
I got on him for it, I was like, you're
seventy nine, it's working man, Hey, look at it looks
put down a cookie, Put down a cupcake.

Speaker 3 (02:27):
Engineer Craig is here, Dave Weeze is here, Social Matt
Matt dem Becky is here. Tim Kates, the host of Scam,
the producer of the Petrosen Money Show.

Speaker 2 (02:37):
He's producer Rush shows off Cifb's Petrol.

Speaker 3 (02:45):
Timk we're here in the suite and we're waiting for
the luminaries to arrive. But before we go any further,
because it is noon and not eleven fifty eight and
thirty seconds, it is a true hopeful music at new
hopeful music at noon. Turn it up, Katie, turn it up,

(03:07):
crag music at neude.

Speaker 2 (03:09):
You have to ride the level on.

Speaker 4 (03:10):
This a little bit, turn it out, gotta have some
Is that as hot as a ghost?

Speaker 3 (03:20):
Creg Craig, that's pissing me off. Here we go, you
know what, I don't trust him.

Speaker 4 (03:26):
See that got a little button there I pushed in.
Although here's a problem. I think every other button on
here is gonna blow your balls off.

Speaker 3 (03:36):
All right?

Speaker 4 (03:36):
Well, then once you're once you're done with them, gonna
I'm gonna keep it wearing that button.

Speaker 3 (03:42):
Truth is, we should have had Katie playing from the studio.
That's the truth. All right, that's okay. And as we're
here at Dodger Stadium waiting for what we considered to
be another Dodger victory with Tyler Glass.

Speaker 2 (03:58):
Now on the mound up here, it's like, mom.

Speaker 3 (04:01):
It's a processional, it's a fair I heard Steve Sach
say the other morning on Scam that Tyler Glass now
so big that he can pitch the ball and tickle
the hitter with his hand because his arm is so
long and.

Speaker 2 (04:15):
His delivery is so real.

Speaker 3 (04:17):
There is a nips and abs nod as there is
also a nod to the Santa Clarita Valley signal on
the Petrosen Money Twitter feed. Today announcing show is at
noon and even though even though it's arny, it's not
too early for bart.

Speaker 5 (04:35):
Brad usually I shoe these dig and shot like.

Speaker 3 (04:44):
An undertoo today and he's got the sweet Dandelos Muertos
Dodger pin that the young lady's downstairs, Mary loves that pin.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
This is the normal, Da, that's beautiful, very strong.

Speaker 3 (05:00):
Is when I come up here to.

Speaker 2 (05:01):
Did we hear anything any of the latest.

Speaker 3 (05:05):
News regarding your ring anything?

Speaker 5 (05:08):
Come back to get in trouble for that boom morell
did you not yet? But I'm pretty sure I start
receiving some terse email.

Speaker 2 (05:16):
Yeah, Brad, I've received a terse email now. You know.

Speaker 3 (05:21):
Sometimes it must course correct. Sometimes at night when you're
here and you're here on a week night and people
are you know, having a few drinks. Uh, sometimes you
know they stop because they got to get up and
do work tomorrow or something like that. But in a
day game, those day drugs go crazy, don't they, Brad
tell us about it.

Speaker 5 (05:41):
Well, the interesting thing this game time is so weird
that you can't really take a half day, so something
like this, we won't get a pop till like the
second inning.

Speaker 2 (05:50):
Oh is that right?

Speaker 3 (05:51):
Because that's why we open early.

Speaker 5 (05:52):
That's why I came up like this, because we open
the club at twelve thirty makes sense, so the people
have two and a half hours to get into the building. Right,
So there's not his hectic a situation in the parking
lots as there is for a night game, and you're
like tomorrow, what about Like.

Speaker 2 (06:09):
What he's speaking to the day drunks that are the guys.

Speaker 5 (06:12):
On Wednesday day game they get after Yeah, that's what
we're coming.

Speaker 2 (06:19):
You know, it's it's time to meet you at Little
Joy after the game. Let's short stuff. Yeah yeah, there
you go like this as they walk in.

Speaker 3 (06:28):
It's always great to see you, Brad. And we're sorry
that the ring thing is not coming to Fruation. We thought,
we thought we'd help. We had our own.

Speaker 2 (06:35):
Guys there every day for all you know.

Speaker 5 (06:40):
Yes, yeah, and if he can't get it, there's no shot.

Speaker 3 (06:43):
At me getting Yeah.

Speaker 4 (06:44):
Yeah, I mean, but you're lubricating the folks that are
scratching out checks for hundreds of thousands.

Speaker 2 (06:49):
Of dollars for a season. Is strong?

Speaker 3 (06:52):
The big wave days, man, Yeah, mat is, here's here's,
here's here's would you like to know his formula? He
doesn't shower and he goes in the ocean every day.
And now he's grown his hair stylishly long. So here yeah,
very yeah. You know, you see a lot of guys

(07:12):
hairs like that at Gibraltar, Marseilles, a lot of the
drug drug trafficking European trade.

Speaker 2 (07:18):
Right, yeah, here we go.

Speaker 3 (07:21):
We love you, Brad, Thank you. Hey, let's have a
great night. You're looking good.

Speaker 2 (07:25):
Look at those hips on Brad. Look at that. That's
a big dude.

Speaker 3 (07:27):
No, he's a good big, big dude, guys and spell
it's right as well.

Speaker 2 (07:31):
Get a little lippy down there. Be careful now.

Speaker 3 (07:33):
As we were saying it is hopeful music at noon,
it is a noon game. There is some protocol to
be handled. And if you didn't think we were petty enough,
this is the best.

Speaker 2 (07:45):
I mean, we're pretty petty.

Speaker 3 (07:46):
We're still upset about Kate's ring, and I don't think
that's pettiness. I just think that that's honest.

Speaker 2 (07:51):
It seems like it should be a no brainer.

Speaker 3 (07:53):
And Brad, you know, the bartender coming up and complaining
about his ring might also be seen as that. However,
this tops all of that because we do have an option. Matt,
and I lay this to you. You know, I like
to make some decisions, but there are some decisions and
I'm just not able to make.

Speaker 4 (08:10):
But I do think my decisions when it comes to prizes.
I think you laid it at my feet because you
knew the direction I would go. That it's an extension
of what your what your solution would be.

Speaker 3 (08:23):
I mean, like this n concert here, think of me
like Cameron and Frarris Bueller, okay, and your Farris.

Speaker 2 (08:31):
When Cameron goes to Egypt.

Speaker 3 (08:33):
Oh, and somebody comes somebody comes in and says.

Speaker 2 (08:37):
Hey, you know, can I drive your Ferrari?

Speaker 3 (08:41):
And I'm like, well, I don't think Dad's gonna like that,
you know, And and that's what I was told. They
were like, hey, you guys want to give away Dodger
tickets for tomorrow's Game four on your show from twelve
to two today, which is.

Speaker 2 (08:53):
Not our normal times.

Speaker 4 (08:54):
It is a super flex we usually it's not our jurisdiction. No,
the way our contract reads for what we are contracted
to do.

Speaker 3 (09:02):
I would know what the contract reads.

Speaker 4 (09:09):
Are bonused on We are bonused on podcast downloads or actually, no,
we're not.

Speaker 2 (09:16):
No, that's upsetting. No, we'd be making a lot more,
lot more money.

Speaker 4 (09:19):
Yeah, we are not bonused on podcast downloads, which is
a hot load of crap.

Speaker 2 (09:23):
We are bonus change, I can feel it.

Speaker 4 (09:25):
We are bonused on the three to seven pm ratings,
the time slot three pm to seven pm in the ratings.
We do not get a lick of all of these
flex alerts. We do when there is a spike in
the number because petros and money is up.

Speaker 3 (09:39):
And what spikes a number more than giving away tickets
to the NLCS, right.

Speaker 2 (09:42):
To gain four of the NLC.

Speaker 3 (09:44):
Yes, so and we I guess are not good neighbors
to Rogan and Rodney if they are not good neighbors
to us. They didn't even finish their show.

Speaker 4 (09:51):
No, they tried to hand it to us at fifty
eight to thirty, which is a travesty.

Speaker 2 (09:55):
It really is.

Speaker 3 (09:56):
Katie had to play some kind of super seafood public
service and advisement, krill planting and krill which is what
Rookie Sasaki eats before every game.

Speaker 4 (10:07):
When Tim Kates said that we had a pair of
tickets to give away for the show today, that's a
big deal for tomorrow's game.

Speaker 3 (10:15):
Trying to get a pair for my psychiatrists, just take
those should have said that even went on the end,
I asked for him and I, you know, the same
powers that be gave us the tickets to give away
that I'm asking for psychiatry tickets.

Speaker 4 (10:27):
So the discussion was had, do we want to give
away the tickets to tomorrow's game for show hal Tani
making a show? Hal Tani pitching tomorrow in the NLCS.
Should the Dodgers win today and tomorrow show, hal Tani
could punch the ticket to the world series.

Speaker 3 (10:46):
And Matt, you know, I mean, we mean, we're we're
not we're not children, but we certainly aren't dead. There's
blood in our veins. It feels good to give away
nlcs on the Petress and Money Show.

Speaker 4 (10:57):
Know all the people are listening because they it sold
out as it sold out, I assume it's sold out.
Come yeah, sol, I mean, come on, sold out, going
for a pretty penny on the secondary market, and yet
we have a pair to give away, and we're on.

Speaker 2 (11:11):
I were on from twelve to two, and I went
to Matt, and I said, what should we do?

Speaker 3 (11:16):
What? What should we do? Because I know that Dad's
not going to like this. He's not going to like
it if I use his tie to tie up my
girlfriend for our sexual fetish. Well, you know he's that
might be probably not like it, but he's gonna be
like the ras in his top. It is in his

(11:37):
special top, proud of you, son.

Speaker 2 (11:39):
So what I'm.

Speaker 3 (11:40):
Saying is I knew that Matt was not going to
like giving them away here, So what is our alternative.
We can't give him back to Rogan and Rodney. No,
we can't, and they were never offered to them anyway.

Speaker 4 (11:52):
And we can't give them the Dodgers on deck to
give away, because that's still on from two to three.

Speaker 2 (11:56):
That is still Rogan and Rodney real ESTs they's.

Speaker 3 (11:57):
Still not our jurisdiction. That would be like me being
in the Lamida Sheriffs going over to Guardina and arresting somebody.

Speaker 2 (12:06):
Can't do it.

Speaker 3 (12:06):
I can't do it.

Speaker 2 (12:07):
That's not my jurisdiction. I yet an idea, can't go
hold on now, Kates, Yeah, an idea.

Speaker 4 (12:11):
So then as we're kicking this thing around, we say
to ourselves, all right, tomorrow or on two to four,
if we give them away at two o'clock, does that
allow somebody enough time to get to the ballpark for
first pitch from wherever they may be, And we recognize
no Petrosen money cuts too white a swath from Baja

(12:32):
to the Canadian Rockies, from Baja to the Canadian Rockies,
petros In money stretches from north to south, from east
to west, and it would be a great travesty if
somebody made their way through one eighth from eight six six,
nine eighty seven, two five seventy to be that correct caller,
only to live too far away and not make it
here in time for a fiveh eight five point thirty

(12:53):
eight pm first pitch.

Speaker 3 (12:54):
So we were worried about that.

Speaker 4 (12:55):
So that then knocked out us giving them away on
the show tomorrow.

Speaker 3 (12:58):
So is there any other suggestions that we might want
to take.

Speaker 2 (13:04):
I mean, hello, we're.

Speaker 3 (13:06):
Gonna give him the scam scam gets the tickets tomorrow mornings.
Let's go. We're not We're that petty Peddy not gonna
give away the tickets to our listeners because we're not
in our jurisdiction. That's right, And we're gonna give them
to Tim Kats and Steve Sacks in the am Scam
tomorrow morning.

Speaker 2 (13:24):
Six to nine.

Speaker 3 (13:25):
Now, today Scam was a triumphant day. You know, Steve
Sacks is feeling great. He's throwing out the first pitch
with Mike Soosha, his teammate, two great Dodger heroes.

Speaker 2 (13:36):
Eighties.

Speaker 6 (13:36):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (13:38):
We talked about the greatness of the Kirk Gibson moment
yesterday and the anniversary of the of the Kirk Gibson moment,
and here we are back back back at Dodger Stadium
watching the Brewers warm up Matt.

Speaker 2 (13:53):
They also have a couple of footballs out there keeping
it loose.

Speaker 5 (13:56):
You know.

Speaker 2 (13:59):
That sounds gave it loose out there and the Dodgers
are down there.

Speaker 3 (14:04):
We are gonna talk to David Vassey that that's gonna happen.
But this morning, I have it on good authority that
Steve Sachs offered Tim Kates, America's catcher and all CIF
Baseball in ninety six. The wall was his nickname for

(14:25):
the Burrows High School Indians. That used to be what
they did coming out. Tim Kates would lead the team
out going like this, and uh, that's that's what they did.
I'm sorry, that's what they did back in those days.
It was a nineties man. They offered Tim Kates.

Speaker 2 (14:44):
To come ast Alison Chains.

Speaker 3 (14:45):
And yeah, they offered Tim Kates to go out there
and catch it, you know, to catch the first come off.

Speaker 2 (14:52):
That's what Saxy did. But I don't think he had
the authority.

Speaker 3 (14:55):
Do you mean that's a that's Steve Sacks.

Speaker 2 (14:58):
How many times have we seen back.

Speaker 3 (14:59):
When her Gibson hit it out high fly ball in
the right field she.

Speaker 4 (15:03):
Is, Yeah, dude, I mean every time somebody throws out
the first pitch, we always hear who's catching.

Speaker 2 (15:07):
Oh, it's it's their uncle.

Speaker 4 (15:09):
That that played catch with them for the first time
and introduced them to the Little League Baseball We always yeah.

Speaker 7 (15:14):
Yeah, it's their one armed people, because usually in the
dignitaries like this do it. You know, it's it's a
bullpen catcher, it's the bat boy.

Speaker 2 (15:21):
Well, but Dalton Rushing.

Speaker 3 (15:23):
Well, uh, well you so you said no, no, no,
I can't do it. I can't do well why because
you're doing the pregame show.

Speaker 2 (15:30):
We got the pregame show.

Speaker 3 (15:32):
Can't Dave take the mic for five minutes so you
can have your moment of glory? I mean can't, I mean,
can't that happen?

Speaker 7 (15:38):
I think Sexy was just turned that down. He was
just being nice.

Speaker 2 (15:43):
She's being nice. You say, okay, So he says you
want to do it? Yep, yes I do.

Speaker 3 (15:47):
Yeah? How do I get down there? Who should we
call that? After? You want me to? I got Steve
Brenner on the line. Uh, let's print this out. I
gotta get down there. You immediately say, yeah, done, Leslie's
a Leslie's oiling up my glove as we speed. But
that being said, then Sacks offered to throw out the
first pitch and rip open a Dodger Jersey and have

(16:07):
a T shirt that says scam, that says scam to
promote Sacks and Kates in.

Speaker 2 (16:12):
The AF six tomorrow. Come it up and.

Speaker 3 (16:14):
They have two tickets to gave, four to give away.

Speaker 7 (16:16):
The only problem, though, only problem, we don't have a
T shirt.

Speaker 2 (16:20):
We don't have any T shirt. How do we not
have a T shirt? We have no T shirts and
we have no vehicle to have the shirts made.

Speaker 3 (16:25):
That's not possible. Now we have a three thousand dollars
plate of fruit, but we do not have T shirts.

Speaker 4 (16:30):
I refuse to believe that We've been on the air
for twenty years and in those twenty years, the Petros
and Money Show has had.

Speaker 2 (16:36):
Countless T shirts produced only one what only one?

Speaker 3 (16:40):
Just wonder Yeah years for a show at the Commerce Casino.
That was an abject failure, an absolute PMS madness T
shirt abject fail. And when they forgot the T shirts
on a pallette at the loading dock and didn't even
bring them until the very end of the show, and
we were already very, very agitated at that point. So

(17:03):
we've had nothing but bad luck with T shirts. Now,
our friend Jason Cardona, Dave Cardona, I'm sorry, Jason Campedonia, Right, well,
I did hear Coach Campy went into the booth today
and got Steve Sacks's autograph.

Speaker 2 (17:16):
That did happen?

Speaker 3 (17:17):
Nice?

Speaker 2 (17:17):
Yeah, you don't take advantage.

Speaker 4 (17:19):
Yeah, that's what we do whenever the politicians come into town.

Speaker 3 (17:22):
Yeah, we love it.

Speaker 4 (17:23):
We love to talk to Hey, can I get the
city councilman's autograph please?

Speaker 3 (17:27):
Uh? So Steve Sacks and Kate's got a bunch of
logos made by Dave Cardona. But they're not they're not
going to be in to scam and they're not going
to bring back Sacks that they're off the first pitch
again for another couple of years. So it's really a
missed opportunity.

Speaker 2 (17:45):
I mean, Dave Cardona can print these things up in
his sleep.

Speaker 3 (17:48):
Well not today. Uh, he's awake and he's been awake.
But I guess it's just not going to happen. So
you have no plans for the Sacks and Soshia. You're
just gonna be up here the Native American guy that
watches the trash with one tear going down your face
watching Sacks through out of the first pitch.

Speaker 4 (18:07):
Here's the one one thing you have to do is
Tim like you have to do this the wireless Mike's work.

Speaker 2 (18:12):
We're going down on the field today.

Speaker 4 (18:13):
Next segment, Davids, all right, next segment, we're on the field. No, Kates,
you have got to be on the field. I can't
listen to me. They kick you off when it's time
for the first pitch. All right, Steve, where you want me?

Speaker 2 (18:28):
Right? He's walking on the film? Where do you want me? Man?

Speaker 3 (18:31):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (18:31):
Do I need a mid or? Can I?

Speaker 4 (18:33):
Hey? Uh, Miguel, Micky, can I borrow your mitt real quick?
I got to catch this from Saxy been little second
basement action here. Let me borrow that mit. I gotta
go down and catch Saxy real quick.

Speaker 3 (18:44):
People might think because of the shorter legs that he's
one of the kids out there.

Speaker 2 (18:48):
Run out and get the autograph.

Speaker 3 (18:50):
You don't rush it.

Speaker 2 (18:51):
You're not using this ketches glove.

Speaker 3 (18:53):
Yeah, you got that beard going. I mean, Kate's I
think that.

Speaker 5 (18:57):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (18:57):
I think you should have said, like, yeah, how do
we get this done? Sure?

Speaker 2 (19:01):
Why do we promote?

Speaker 3 (19:02):
How do we promote our radio show that's going to
go for another couple of weeks.

Speaker 7 (19:05):
It's not about me, it's about seeven it's about Mikesoshia
and letting them have the glory.

Speaker 3 (19:10):
I just want to say this take away from that
before we go. That's good, that's classy. That's like Blake Snell.
Did you want to stand for the ninth inning? Nope?
I trust, Dave Roberts. Are you sure you didn't want
to pitch a complete game? You see how there washing
up Yoshi Yamamoto's balls were pitching a complete game the
very next day.

Speaker 2 (19:25):
No, No, I trust, I trust. Matter of fact, I
saw that a little upsetting.

Speaker 3 (19:30):
But you're being classy about it, Tim, and we appreciate that.
But I do want to point something out. You know,
we've been up here for the entire playoffs and most
of the home games, all but one. I think we've
been here in the Vin Scully Suite, AM five seventy
l A Sports.

Speaker 4 (19:45):
In the shadow of the City of Carson Proclamation for
Vin Scully Day.

Speaker 3 (19:49):
Dave Weese looking tired and haggard. Under the Vin Scully
Day proclamations.

Speaker 4 (19:56):
He is under the Baldwin Park City Council Proclamation scolar among.

Speaker 3 (20:01):
Others and uh and he is working hard, working for
a living, making sure all the sponsors get in.

Speaker 2 (20:07):
Here, taking what they're giving, making sure.

Speaker 3 (20:09):
That everybody makes the money that they're supposed to make,
and there is a lot of money to be made
by the station during the Dodger playoffs. But that being said, Matt,
I think like we have a lot less of a
concerned attitude as far as what the outcome of the
game is going to be. I don't know if that's
good or bad, but it feels like we have more
of a cavalier attitude. Today. We're talking about Tim Kats

(20:30):
getting swagged for a show. We're talking about tickets, catching
first pitch inside tickets, and talking about day drunks downstairs.
I mean, we usually if Tyler glass Now is pitching
in the playoffs, there would be.

Speaker 2 (20:45):
A real butthole tightening. But there's not.

Speaker 3 (20:47):
No, no, there's not. It seems like maybe we're a
little too nonchalant. Some might say, I'm not saying we are.
Some might say we're a little nonchalant.

Speaker 2 (20:55):
We're supposed to reflect and I'm.

Speaker 3 (20:58):
Glad Brad noticed a big wave Dave hair because Matt
stylishly long hair coming over with the surf dude with
attitude style that's not lost on anybody here.

Speaker 8 (21:07):
We cannot make decision that costs the team and then
come off the sideline and its nonchalant.

Speaker 2 (21:12):
Yeah, that's kind of how we're acting. But I think
it's reflected in a nonchalant way.

Speaker 4 (21:17):
It's reflective of the state of Los Angeles right now,
after taking two in Milwaukee, having three, I mean the
two three two format in the NLCS. To have three
straight here with Tyler Glass now Sho Hail Tani and
then Blake Snow back on the mound, I think there is.

Speaker 2 (21:32):
Cause for a little Now, if we come back tomorrow and.

Speaker 4 (21:40):
Nips and Abs unfortunately get a little chafed and not
enough vasoline on those nips when you went out for
the run, then certainly our attitude will shift considerably. But
as it stands right now, Yeah, he's not the only guy.

Speaker 3 (21:52):
With his shirt off and you have to call him nips.

Speaker 2 (21:54):
An ass, but he was front and center.

Speaker 3 (21:56):
Well, I mean.

Speaker 2 (22:00):
He's putting.

Speaker 4 (22:00):
I mean it's like a nip shot, you know, when
you have a body double in the old Big.

Speaker 2 (22:05):
Steve Sack says he can throw the pitch and then
tickle the head right in your pit.

Speaker 4 (22:11):
So when he's on the moone, it's not sixty six,
it's like fifty eight fod.

Speaker 3 (22:15):
We're very much looking forward to being here for the
next hour and a half.

Speaker 2 (22:21):
And Matt, there's a lot of sponsors. Let's go. Heckel Caros.
He's down on the field. I saw him down there.
He's gonna wear it. Look at how we have here.

Speaker 3 (22:28):
We have Modello with model here, VIP guest in between Modello,
big fan of vnssaw he we got to keep the
Mexicans and the Japanese apart, fair point, because otherwise they're
gonna rip at each other's throats now raccoons.

Speaker 4 (22:41):
To be honest, I would have adjusted because everybody can
agree that a Hoffey hot dog pairs perfectly with beer.
So you got coffee in the middle, and it's like, hey, Modello, coffee.

Speaker 3 (22:49):
People are incontinent, and they have to be the edge
so they can sprint to the bat.

Speaker 2 (22:54):
They have to be here on the edge.

Speaker 3 (22:56):
So just a couple, it says VIP guests, but what
it really is is two bodyguards between the Mexicans and
the Japanese.

Speaker 4 (23:02):
And then up here we got Harris. We have Haras.
Make your bets now.

Speaker 3 (23:06):
Let's go. Let's go to the Haras in New Orleans, right,
And then we have the Jewish Assistance League.

Speaker 2 (23:11):
Appreciate them for kids.

Speaker 3 (23:12):
And then we got not as much as we did
a few weeks ago, but we still less now but
still appreciate.

Speaker 2 (23:17):
And then over here is what's this? What is p
I A?

Speaker 3 (23:22):
I don't know. We think these are the people that
own vans? Are those the people that own vans?

Speaker 4 (23:27):
I remember seeing him. It was a younger Latino couple,
very nice, and they were when they were sitting there.

Speaker 3 (23:33):
Are you the young Latino couple from p I H?

Speaker 2 (23:37):
Who's pH? And then we have what's the we love la?

Speaker 3 (23:40):
What's that?

Speaker 2 (23:42):
And then first drive who is it? Presbyterian Intercommunity Hospital?

Speaker 3 (23:47):
All right, hospital?

Speaker 2 (23:48):
Right, PIH?

Speaker 3 (23:50):
And then timber Tech love tech.

Speaker 4 (23:53):
It's not lumber, but it's that that adjusted lumber, the
supported with plastic lumber keep that patio lasting great all
year long.

Speaker 3 (24:01):
So I haven't been drinking yet. It's early. Should we
go downstairs?

Speaker 2 (24:05):
Let's go all right?

Speaker 7 (24:06):
Dave's down there, Eric carrols, I see down there, all right, Katie,

Do them for twenty years. So I'm not in that
everybody else right, Yeah, I'm going in there today and
not introducing myself.

Speaker 2 (26:55):
I like to give his nicknames.

Speaker 3 (26:56):
Right is Olden's Hollywood.

Speaker 9 (26:58):
He's trying to front Nickson every buddy. He doesn't want
to answer the questions about how his brewers have not
performed very well.

Speaker 10 (27:05):
You know what he likes answering questions. He'll answer any
question you got.

Speaker 2 (27:09):
Yeah, yeah, you like that day, He'll answer your question.
You know what's up?

Speaker 3 (27:12):
John from a Finger Maine took up all our time.

Speaker 2 (27:16):
He's good.

Speaker 10 (27:16):
He's got we got the two best talkers of managers here,
so you're pretty lucky with that.

Speaker 3 (27:21):
Yeah, I know. Are you going up to Seattle after this? Uh?

Speaker 10 (27:25):
Well yeah, they're in the World Series. I mean the

Speaker 1 (27:33):
No?

Speaker 2 (27:33):
What are you crazy? It's only two hours.

Speaker 3 (27:37):
He's on this series. He's a series on the beast.

Speaker 2 (27:40):
This is the big series. That other series that's a
junior song. Okay, are you worried about o Tommy Hammond
before we let you go?

Speaker 3 (27:47):
I don't worry. No, I'm too old to worry. If
you were, if you were somebody else that was really
into it, would you will be worried about otime? Oh?

Speaker 2 (27:54):
Not worry.

Speaker 3 (27:54):
He's the greatest player of all time.

Speaker 10 (27:56):
Why would I worry about the strikeouts?

Speaker 2 (27:59):
You know that?

Speaker 10 (28:00):
About the bullpen? They don't have a bullpen. Last year
they had a great bullpen. Now he doesn't want to
use anybody in the bullpen.

Speaker 4 (28:06):
All right, it's kind of fun, you know. It feels
like it's nineteen eighty eight over ago. These guys gone.
I've got a question for Haman.

Speaker 9 (28:12):
You tweeted out Manny Ramirez is flaunting his services just
moments ago.

Speaker 3 (28:15):
It's a job.

Speaker 2 (28:16):
Yeah, who's going to hire him?

Speaker 3 (28:17):
It didn't coach? Well, I don't know.

Speaker 10 (28:18):
I know he called the match. I don't think they're
going to hire him, but you never know. They're thirty
out there, right.

Speaker 9 (28:24):
Do you feel like maybe he's a fit with the
padres to wrangle tattoos and majada?

Speaker 3 (28:28):
Oh no, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (28:29):
That'd be fun.

Speaker 10 (28:31):
He's fun, Yeah, it'll be fun. But I don't think so.
He's a Dodger. Isn't he a Dodger?

Speaker 2 (28:35):
Many?

Speaker 9 (28:35):
Anyway, a year and a half and then we don't
really talk about what happened when Jean Pierre had to
take over.

Speaker 4 (28:41):
I listen, you know, somebody presents you with something and
you like the option.

Speaker 2 (28:45):
You don't think about the concerts. These things happen.

Speaker 9 (28:50):
I love you, Hayman, You're the best of the bast
You offer him sandwiches in the South Bay.

Speaker 3 (28:54):
He can't say no, Oh, look at this.

Speaker 2 (28:57):
We've got ex lovers, We've got friends. Boden's over there, Boden.

Speaker 3 (29:02):
Ahead, that's Kate's guy. Got him on the show. Oh
that's gonna upset Davids is our guest, Dave. We loved
news go over. There was great to run into John
Hammond from the MLB Network, longtime friend of the.

Speaker 2 (29:14):
Petros and Money Show.

Speaker 3 (29:15):
I can't believe he's down here.

Speaker 2 (29:16):
I can't believe it without doobies.

Speaker 3 (29:18):
I can't believe it.

Speaker 2 (29:19):
If you've gotta be the doobye smoker, you gotta show
up with doobies.

Speaker 3 (29:21):
Dave, overall your brand exactly. Oh Tani did change his routine.
What does that tell you?

Speaker 9 (29:27):
Tells me he's concerned about his performance. Tells me that
he feels like he needed to change something and maybe
even see the ball fly and hit the roof over
there in right field and you see that DISO sign, Yes,
that as well. He hit one off that sign, the
other above, the te L sign above on the roof.

Speaker 3 (29:48):
Does that change the narrative?

Speaker 2 (29:50):
Well, I'm sure it gives him some.

Speaker 9 (29:52):
The reason why it's such a big story is because
he has never done it before. He hasn't taken batting
practice as a dodge ever ever the last two years.

Speaker 2 (30:02):
So what does he do?

Speaker 9 (30:02):
And the only time that he has ever taken batting
practice on the field at Dodger Stadium was his last
year with the Angels. That's why it's such a big
story because it's so much out of his routine. But
you know, Christian Yelich doesn't take batting practice on the
field anymore. He described that there's more tools for a
hitter inside in the batting cage. But Dave Roberts just

(30:24):
said there's something to be said about watching the ball fly,
watching it carry, And that's what I mentioned yesterday. Andre
Ether was telling me that as well as a hitter
firsthand knowledge that you know, in the playoffs.

Speaker 3 (30:37):
You're not playing every day. He struggled.

Speaker 9 (30:39):
He's been in the cage every day. Why not get
on the field, have some fun with it and see
the ball fly on top of the roof.

Speaker 4 (30:45):
Here going back to a conversation we had with your
your dear friend, was it they told I'm trying to
remember which Dodger it was.

Speaker 2 (30:53):
Who was the Franklin Stubbs? Now?

Speaker 4 (30:55):
Who was it that told us, gentleman Al? It was
a gun who told us shorten up the swing. Let's
just try to get some hits, you know, let's get
some traffic. And when the Dodgers as a team we're slumping,
does that apply to Otani or is he just too
valuable with what he can do with one freaking swing
that you still want him taking giant hacks and trying
to just bomb the ball.

Speaker 2 (31:14):
That's not what they want.

Speaker 9 (31:15):
No, they want Otani to go to left field, Okay,
they want him to use the bigger part of the field,
something Adrian Gonzalez was really good at. When you see
Otani hitting balls to left field line drives going over
the shortstop, that's what Freddy Freeman works on every day.
You watch Freddy Freeman take batting practice today, all he's
trying to do is hip balls over the shortstop's head.

(31:36):
And when Otani does that, he's at his best and
that opens up and gets his swing to a point
where he can hit home runs onto the roof at
Dodger Stadium.

Speaker 3 (31:45):
I want an only David Vasse joining us at the
real underscore DV, His Twitter, his analysis, his overall presence
during the postseason is invaluable not only to Dodger Radio,
but to the Dodger world as a whole. Some won't
accept that. Well I do.

Speaker 2 (32:01):
I accept it. We celebrated, Yes.

Speaker 4 (32:04):
We both do, and it's sort of our show, but
in a crappy time slot.

Speaker 3 (32:07):
Now, Dave, what do you say to the people that
are out there saying that the Dodgers winning this way.
We don't know what's going to happen tonight, but they've
been dominant in this series. It feels like the pitching
has Hey, it's Max mountsks me.

Speaker 9 (32:21):
Look at him, the way he's shaking his head at me.
You know, Max Buns.

Speaker 3 (32:25):
He's not getting enough credit for breaking out that radcas Dude, he.

Speaker 2 (32:31):
Got that pregame karma. He did the pregame show. He
hits a home.

Speaker 3 (32:34):
Run, Absolutely, he got the pregame dead fish hitches a right, Dave,
what do you say to people that are saying that
the Dodgers winning like this are bad for baseball?

Speaker 2 (32:43):
Outrageous?

Speaker 9 (32:44):
Outrageous and Jeff pass And I've talked to him, I've
taken some shots about it. Look at the Dodgers starting
lineup today, let's go through it. Other teams can blame
themselves for the juggernaut that is the Dodgers twenty twenty
five number one leading off show.

Speaker 3 (33:00):
Hey o Taani.

Speaker 9 (33:02):
The Angels could have kept him, could have matched this
genius contract structure. They chose not to Mookie Betts. The
Red Sox traded him away for nothing. Connor Wong, Alex Virduno.
They gave him to the Dodgers. Freddie Freeman. The Braves
said no thank you, but no thanks. Freddie Freeman, Will

(33:22):
Smith drafted developed by the Dodgers. Max Munsey found by
far On on the couch at his house during the
No that'd be somewhere else.

Speaker 2 (33:32):
Yeah, very weird.

Speaker 3 (33:33):
The couch from half May.

Speaker 9 (33:34):
Yeah, Taeoscar Hernandez they took a flyer on last year
one year contract, kept him Andy pa has in center field.
Their guy drafted developed Key Hernandez. Nobody had heard of
him until Andrew Freeman rescued him from the Marlins.

Speaker 2 (33:49):
It was offseason.

Speaker 3 (33:51):
Dan found somewhere on a dairy farm in Wisconsin. There
we go.

Speaker 9 (33:59):
So everybody that wants to just say the Dodgers bought
their way here so short sighted. It's the other teams
that are now having a lot of fomo that they
gave away their good players that are performing at a
high level, like Glass down right, Glass now they him right.

Speaker 3 (34:16):
That's right? So what's uh? What do you I mean?
Obviously tough act to follow the last couple of games
pitching wise for the Dodgers. This is a great pitcher
though he's been pitching well in the postseason. How do
you think it's gonna go to die?

Speaker 9 (34:30):
Petros you're a man that appreciates Freud, You appreciate the
psyche of a man.

Speaker 2 (34:35):
Well, what kind of psyche are we talking about here?

Speaker 9 (34:39):
Well, this is the thing. It's not glass now versus
the brewers. That guy's eggs are scrambled me. It's glass
now versus glass now look at that, and if he
starts to miss and gets to mechanical, he's going to
start walking brewers, and the Brewers are going to start
stealing bases off of him. That's gonna speed the game
up on him. So it's glass now versus glass Now.

(34:59):
If glass now can just compete throw strikes, he's going
to be in a great spot. The Dodgers are going
to be in a great spot. And as our very
own Rick Monday likes to say, I firmly believe the
Dodger offense tonight or today is going to create rockets
red glare.

Speaker 3 (35:16):
Oh I like that, even with the shadows.

Speaker 9 (35:19):
Yeah, no shadows at three o'clock, petros for nothing after
the third inning, Dodgers.

Speaker 2 (35:23):
Should we view it? How should we view this day?

Speaker 4 (35:26):
Should we view this as glass half full or glass
half and last? Now where glass now day bottom of
the order, some base knocks now causing some traffic knocking
in some runs. Top of the order not doing much
right now? Is that glass half full or glass half empty? Like, hey,
I'd rather have the top of the order in a
slump if the bottom half is going knowing that they're

(35:47):
going to come around.

Speaker 9 (35:48):
I would say that's a baseball daily narrative after just
one game. Because in Game one it was Freddie Freeman, right,
it was Mookie Betts who drew a Bas's loaded walk.
So that's us the daily narrative of baseball and the postseason.
I feel like right now the Dodger offense is hitting
on all cylinders one through nine, and it says a

(36:09):
lot about the offense when Otani has not done anything
in the postseason and they're up two to zero and
they just beat the big bad Phillies in four games,
that's scary for everybody.

Speaker 2 (36:19):
Else down on the field. Sorry, I was distracted.

Speaker 3 (36:23):
Do you want to talk to Mark ark is gonna
try to sneak on.

Speaker 2 (36:25):
You know what I was listening this morning.

Speaker 4 (36:27):
Let me say this, Rob James Loney is, I don't
want I don't want to put you in a weird spot.

Speaker 3 (36:31):
It's Rob Parker. Here you go, Rob takeover Baseball Hall
of Fame.

Speaker 2 (36:36):
Like that Brian Kenney, don't I don't like that Brian Kenny.

Speaker 3 (36:40):
Guy Kenny's good, Bay, I don't like.

Speaker 4 (36:42):
I don't like the guy that's squatty, a little bit
heavy and as a host and says even I would
have got out of the way of that ball to
let that that run come in.

Speaker 2 (36:50):
Don't do that, don't you that guy.

Speaker 3 (36:52):
If you wouldn't, you wouldn't have been to play first
of me, you wouldn't.

Speaker 2 (36:55):
Be able to react to a pitch coming. I agree
with him.

Speaker 3 (36:58):
I don't want to hear. I don't want to hear
I would have been able to get out if there's
a giant hole and said I could have got through
that hole.

Speaker 4 (37:04):
You can drive through that, all right, but not a right.
Come on, you're a Hall of Famer. You know that
exactly well. And Rob also defended here's the thing, Brian Kinney.

Speaker 2 (37:16):
About them doing that.

Speaker 4 (37:17):
It's not for you, it's not for anybody watching, it's
not for anybody here. It's an inside joke between the
Dodgers players that Freddie Freeman did a dance on a
video that was stupid looking. And and that's how that's
entertaining each other.

Speaker 8 (37:29):
And that's and that's why I said, like, let's not
get too serious.

Speaker 2 (37:33):
It's a baseball game.

Speaker 8 (37:34):
And if you don't like it and you don't want
Freddy on base, then get him out.

Speaker 3 (37:38):
And he can't do that, Rob exactly. I'm not an
old guy. I don't let this gray hair for you
just yet, young in the mind, but you're a very
good looking Oh my god, distinguished gentleman of middle A.

Speaker 8 (37:50):
You know what, I'm starting to feel like, Uh, Perry
White from Superman with the gray hair.

Speaker 3 (37:55):
Yeah, you look like you look like the husband of
that Cynthia lady when on the Real Housewives of Atlanta
before she was with Mike Hill. Remember he was like
a Jamaican guy. He looked good. I'm hanging in there,
you guys great? Are you kidding? No? Can I can?

Speaker 2 (38:13):
I I want to share something.

Speaker 3 (38:15):
Yes, it's Ron Parker of Fox Sports Radio. Everybody.

Speaker 8 (38:18):
So I went to I went to Southern Connecticut State
University October.

have imagined that.

Speaker 3 (38:39):
I'm not wonderful.

Speaker 8 (38:41):
That's very special, like it really and and and it
brings me to the story when we first went there,

Speaker 2 (38:52):
From New York City, from New York City up to.

Speaker 8 (38:55):

this whole idea of me being a sports writer, and
it's like, you know, this is what I want to do.

Speaker 3 (39:04):
Mom oh blah blah. At that time, let's just be
hon it.

Speaker 6 (39:07):
There weren't that many.

Speaker 8 (39:07):
Black guys sports writers making money or a living, So
of course she had her reservation, you know what I mean, like, really.

Speaker 2 (39:15):
This is I said, this is what I want to do.
She says, let's go forward, let's do it. Take that bus.

Speaker 8 (39:21):
Ride, and then here we are forty years later or so,

to flocky in his head?

Speaker 3 (40:34):
Do you want me to throw it like a lawn dart?
Or like an overhand like Shakuazulu? How do you want
me to do it? Matt right his head?

Speaker 2 (40:44):
La is my lady.

Speaker 3 (40:45):
We'll be right back with more petro somebody on M
five seventy l A Sports, Your Home of the Dodgers.

Speaker 2 (40:56):
Hello, pms lister.

range of LA Sports podcasts.

There's Rogan and Rodney. That one is my favorite. Dodger
Talk with David Vassei, the Dodger Podcast of Record Clipper
talk without a musk, follow us all and many more.

Speaker 1 (41:13):
Just go to AM five to seventy LA Sports on
the iHeartRadio AP.

Speaker 4 (41:19):
Live on the field at Dodger Stadium. It's NLCS Game three.
Tyler glassnow on the mon.

Speaker 2 (41:26):
We'll have your first pitch just after three pm. Dodgers
on deck, coming.

Speaker 4 (41:29):
Up at two and the first pitch Steven Nelson, Rick Monday.
Rick Monday the only man on earth that knew what
the hell was going on in the fourth inning when
that ball carened off a mitt and then the wall
and then back into a mit and was able to
deliver you real time analysis without having to think about
it for five minutes.

Speaker 2 (41:48):
That's how good our Dodger broadcast is. I would agree
with that, Matt.

Speaker 3 (41:53):
We are down here on the field at Dodger Stadium
watching the Dodgers take BP. We are supposed to be
catching up in a moment with Eric Carrows, our friend.

Speaker 2 (42:03):
He is walking over.

Speaker 3 (42:04):
We talked to Rob Parker and John Haymon from the
national media, and of course the one and only David
Vassy but joining us right now after he takes his
selfie on your Southern California Toyota Dealers celebrity hotline. His
sons are baseball stars. Won this year with the Rockies,
broke through and had some great moments there against the Dodgers.

Speaker 2 (42:26):
And here here he is.

Speaker 3 (42:28):
He's the king before anybody lived in the South Bank support.
He's an athletic supporter, the great Eric Carrows from Fox
and Spectrum Sportsnet, one of the greatest Dodgers that ever lived.
In our opinion, support stylishly long hair like Matt Money Smith.

Speaker 2 (42:48):
I know that's why they're both growing that out long.

Speaker 3 (42:50):
And he's here. He was just doing VP stuff, talking
to people about hitting. Looking real official, what's cracking the
k all good?

Speaker 11 (42:57):
Excited, beautiful day out here looking for a three to
zero start.

Speaker 3 (43:01):
Remember the last time you and I were on this
field together, out there and you were fighting with David Matt.

Speaker 6 (43:06):
I remember that and still right.

Speaker 11 (43:09):
I mean somebody was somebody picked the Dodgers, somebody else
picked the Phillies.

Speaker 6 (43:13):
This was two years ago.

Speaker 2 (43:14):
How about that.

Speaker 6 (43:14):
How'd that turn out?

Speaker 3 (43:16):
You were right?

Speaker 2 (43:17):
That's how it turned out.

Speaker 3 (43:18):
I love that.

Speaker 6 (43:18):
Say that again.

Speaker 3 (43:19):
You are absolutely right, and he's got to buy you something.
And I'm not talking about it the local yoke. I'm
talking about someplace that you really deserve. But it is beautiful.
Are you surprised to see I don't know if they're
cruising through the postseason, but it kind of feels like it.
Do you think that will continue with the quality of
this team?

Speaker 11 (43:36):
So, I mean, this team is as good as anybody.
They're playing as well as anybody. I really felt like
the World Series was against Philly Philly, the pitching that
they had, the way they matched up against LA that.

Speaker 6 (43:48):
Was the That was the series.

Speaker 11 (43:50):
But as far as everything else, it's Look, the reality
is at this ball club. If they just go out
and play and they're not even kicking on all cylinders
right now, I just don't know how stopped.

Speaker 4 (44:00):
I really don't the starters and the willingness of Doc
to let these guys go deeper into games. We're talking
about it like they're throwing three hundred pitches out there.
He's letting them cross the hundred pitch mark and h
and finish out these games. Do you think that's just,
you know, something that happened last night or two nights ago,
or is that something we're going to see for the
rest of this playoff series.

Speaker 11 (44:18):
Well, I think the starter will tell you that by
how he's thrown. Look at Glass, now go out and
do the same thing as is snelling Yamamoto.

Speaker 6 (44:27):
I think one of the things if you.

Speaker 11 (44:28):
Look at this year, the way that they were used,
the way that you know, look at the Dodgers, you
know they used the land and next they use the Robeleskies.
They use guys to to keep these guys fresh. Snell
had what sixty or seventy innings. I mean that that's crazy, right,
Glass like the only one that really threw a lot.
Yamamoto and Kersh right, like, who would have ever if

(44:48):
you would have told me before the season the cursh
is going to be top two an innings pitch I said,
we got fro Wow, Like wow, we got And you know,
so look at the Dodgers are well positioned as they
possibly could be, and.

Speaker 6 (45:02):
Quite frankly, they haven't.

Speaker 11 (45:04):
They haven't got going like they will offensively and what
only lost one game so far.

Speaker 4 (45:10):
So you you're wearing a badge that says support on it,
you're supposed to support these.

Speaker 2 (45:14):
Guys supporting us right now? Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 4 (45:16):
With the segment on the air, what's the what's the
support for Otani? What are you seeing it doesn't make
any sense that a guy that good is hitting one
forty seven right now with all those strikes.

Speaker 11 (45:24):
So I will say, the face in Philly and having
to face those three guys. If you're right handed, those
three are nasty as heck. If you're left handed, it's
a nightmare. It's a nightmare, right I mean. And that's
so then you know, you start swinging, you get into
some habits, and look at Otani is one of the
few players that I've ever seen that could look absolutely

(45:46):
horrid on one swing and the next swing hit a
ball out of the park. And look, I think he's fine.
Like it's it's a little stretch right now, it's been
two games, he's been pitched tough. You know he's going
to see a left eat tonight right the first that
a filthy lefting. So it's look at they're they're not
giving him any opportunity to breathe.

Speaker 6 (46:06):
But look, am I worried about I'm not worried about
an If.

Speaker 2 (46:09):
You were worried about any you weren't worried with Niel.

Speaker 3 (46:12):
You weren't worried out there. Now baseball has been great
for you, and you've been great for baseball and your family.
Just personally, You've had so many gratifying moments in the
last few years and in your career. Where does this
year stack up? You know, watching your son and and
just being being around the Dodgers like you are, and
and looking so tan and healthier, filling up that polo

(46:34):
the way you're feeling it up.

Speaker 11 (46:36):
So I will say it's been an exciting year, just
the Dodger season has been. It's been an eventful year.
There's been a lot of there's been some up, some
down some you know, but I don't think I ever
wavered from the fact that, you know, I think I've
gone on your show a number of times. Don't worry
about it, guys. Yeah, we're gonna be pretty much. Don't
worry about it, you know. So from the Dodger standpoint,

(46:56):
he's been great. From a personal level, uh, you know,
it's been It's it's been great as far as gett
an opportunity to see my younger son play in the.

Speaker 6 (47:03):
Big leagues with the Rockies. But on the flip side,
kind of a little.

Speaker 11 (47:06):
Down or my other my older one with the Dodgers,
Tommy John surgery.

Speaker 6 (47:10):
So you know, you have a little bit of everything.

Speaker 3 (47:12):

baby boy, So grandfather two times over all good your grandfather, God, look.

broadcasting and a great year of being Eric Carrows and Batman.

Speaker 6 (47:47):
Tighten it up a little bit. I can't have it.

want to be a fire hazard underwhere I'm wearing too money.

Speaker 3 (47:55):
Come on, he's a little money, Like where are we going?

Speaker 2 (47:59):
You probably not to be on the show today. I
would have got whacked your polo and you always have
the tuft of air coming up.

Speaker 3 (48:06):
Do you tell the athletes of the South Bay that
you were the original and they're all a bunch of posers?

Speaker 2 (48:13):
Do you tell them to get out of here?
