talked to Caros, We.

Speaker 3 (03:59):
Talk to Sean Green, which is fitting because Eric Carros
the most home runs ever by a LA Dodger and
Sean Green holds the record for the most home runs
in a season by a LA Dodger forty nine home runs.
Sho He Otani is on pace to tie Sean Green

(04:20):
with forty nine home runs this season.

Speaker 1 (04:22):
Are both those records and Jeopardy very much so? And
who's going to break them?

Speaker 3 (04:29):
A good chance Otani does with a ten year contract. Whatever,
sho Hao Todi says, we all fall in line. That's right,
And Kate's what else do we have? Or are you
going to try to sports it?

Speaker 2 (04:38):
Up here.

Speaker 4 (04:38):
No, I'm just curious, Dave. Are they retiring Dusty Baker's
number on Saturday? Is that why they have that one
on the far right closed off.

Speaker 3 (04:46):
They are not retiring Dusty Baker's number twelve. They are
celebrating Dusty Baker into the legends of Dodger Baseball. And
what you're seeing up there is the Dodgers are going
like what they did for Oral last year, yeah and others.
That's kind of like the Dodger Hall of Fame. Even
though there is no building out here in the center
field plaza, they have these signs that commemorate those that

(05:10):
are in the legends of Dodger Baseball. But what you're
seeing right there that is covered where all the retired
numbers are and Vin Sculling Heimi Hanrin's microphones retired are
is some sort of commemoration to Walter O'Malley who brought
the Dodgers to Los Angeles. So over this alumni weekend,
they are going to induct Walter O'Malley into the Ring

(05:34):
of Honor, which is sacred ground. If you see those
numbers of players that played for the Dodgers, Walter O'Malley
is going to be among them, even though he never played.

Speaker 2 (05:45):
He was just the owner.

Speaker 1 (05:46):
Well that's still a pretty big over gig owner. And
now the Dodgers ownership group is a gigantic financial like
Hedge fund or something, the Juggernaut. The Guggenheim group very
different than the O'Malley family. The Guggenheim Group is becoming very,
very influential beyond owning the Dodgers in the baseball world

(06:06):
right their sponsor behind the Dodgers trip to Japan to
open next season twenty twenty five.

Speaker 3 (06:11):
They are huge and Guggenheim Baseball obviously is focused on
the Dodgers, but Mark Walter and Todd Bowley have interests
with the Lakers. Bully owns a soccer team out there.
I don't know where, if it's Manchester United, I forgot
which team it is. But they have their hands in
a lot of different sports leagues for sure.

Speaker 2 (06:32):
Does Walter know you? And he's like, hey, Dave, what's cracking.

Speaker 3 (06:35):
I remember the first time I had a conversation with
Mark Walter. It was after the Dodgers were beat in
Game six of the twenty thirteen NLCS. It was his
first postseason and he was hanging out at the entrance
of the Team hotel with the great doctor Neil Elatrosh,
and they invited me to have a cocktail with them
outside of the hotel room and smoke a cigar. But

(06:58):
I was only in year two and did not feel
very comfortable to be in that.

Speaker 2 (07:02):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (07:03):
I just did not feel comfortable. You'd be like the
guy on the cover of the Warrant album. I'd be like, huge, yeah,
giant cigar. Just lighten it with a dollar bill, one
hundred dollar bill. Kates, did you chime in and say
who's coming on later? We already had two big guests,
But I'm not that prepared for anything other than just
this kind of stuff.

Speaker 4 (07:21):
Well, I have a good authority that Michael Grove and
River Ryan are gonna be flowing around here.

Speaker 2 (07:24):
So great.

Speaker 3 (07:25):
I could ask Michael Grove why he didn't scream back
at Nick Castianos last night.

Speaker 2 (07:29):
Are you gonna make things that uncomfortable for everybody?

Speaker 1 (07:31):
Well?

Speaker 2 (07:32):
I hope, So, Okay, it's time. What are we trying
to do now? What?

Speaker 1 (07:35):
There's Sam Pedro wan walking by. Thank you for all
your help, wan go pirates.

Speaker 3 (07:40):
I think he holds the record in Division three for
the most bunt Hits.

Speaker 2 (07:43):
Who did he say he was gonna bring over Kate's
and Michael Grove. We just talked to River Ryan again.
You need to meet these people face to face, nose
to nose. I don't care.

Speaker 1 (07:56):
All right, It's time for the word of the day.

Speaker 2 (07:59):
With his words, the.

Speaker 1 (08:02):
Word of the day, Dave, the greatest college football throwback
uniform alternate jersey has dropped.

Speaker 2 (08:09):
I've never been more excited.

Speaker 1 (08:12):
I am absolutely tickled that Illinois will wear sweet throwback
uniforms versus Michigan on October nineteenth, when the ALLIONI takes
on the Wolverines for the hundredth anniversary of Red Grange's
six touchdown game versus Michigan.

Speaker 2 (08:31):
Red Grange is the guy that.

Speaker 1 (08:33):
Basically was the first star in the history of football.
His ability to make people interested in college football when
he was at Illinois and what George Hallis did with him,
moved him out of college early to the Decatur Staleys
who became the Chicago Bears and did a barn storming

(08:53):
tour around the country where this guy running the ball
and people like Grantland Rice and all these famous writers
from the East Coast writing about it. He comes to
the Polo grounds, performs in front of Babe Ruth, takes
a picture with Babe Ruth. I mean, this is American
legendary stuff, and it's the birth of the popularity of
pro football and college football in this country. People don't

(09:15):
realize that the coach Zupkey at Illinois for Red Grange,
who recruited Red Grange, created the kickoff, the linebacker position,
the huddle, the flea flicker, spring football, and so on
and so forth. So it's really the cradle of football.
I've been to Illinois and done games in champagn or

(09:37):
Bana have always found it interesting. They have all kinds
of red grain stuff. They have the big statue, they
have his uniform, all this stuff. They honor him beautifully.
And here is the uniform, Dave.

Speaker 3 (09:48):
I love that they make the helmet look like it's
a leather helmet. Yeah, I love that. Just a really
sweet look. They got that right. Petros I tweeted it
out at the Old pe. I retweeted a bread. McMurphy,
who's a great college football writer, I tweeted out, it
is the coolest looking thing. Years ago, I did an
audio book. I was the reader of an audio book

(10:11):
and it was about Red Grange, and the story fascinated me,
and it made me understand so much of the roots
of the popularity of college football and pro football in
our country.

Speaker 1 (10:21):
And it really does. I mean, Jim Thorpe Yes and
some of that stuff, but it really does start with
Red Grange. Before Red Grange, who was not known as
a rich guy or a frat guy from an ivy
league school, I mean, he was way out west, considered
west in Illinois, and he was the son of an
ice delivery truck guy. So he was like a working

(10:42):
man's hero. And that made the sport not just like
lacrosse at Yale is right, peppy white guys that are
stocky planets. It became a sport sort of for everybody
in a way, and it's gone on from there. So
that is something to check out. Coolest throwback ever. I
hope they eat Michigan's balls in Uh, Dave, you got

(11:02):
the number of the day.

Speaker 2 (11:03):
Here's my number of the day.

Speaker 3 (11:07):
All right, Petro's taking off guard here. But baseball is
a numbers game. And I mentioned that sho Hey O'tani
is on pace to hit forty nine home runs this season.
He is also on pace to steal forty two bases,
becoming just the sixth player in Major League Baseball history
to be a forty forty player, And no Dodger has

(11:30):
ever been a forty to forty player in the history
of this franchise. So there's your number of the day,
and how about two numbers seventy seven and twenty nine.

Speaker 2 (11:38):
Take it away, Dave. Why don't you talk to your boys? Yeah,
here they are River, Ryan.

Speaker 1 (11:42):
Who was just on the show the other day. Hi, River,
I talked to you the other Detros.

Speaker 3 (11:47):
Yes.

Speaker 2 (11:47):
And Michael Grove.

Speaker 3 (11:48):
Hello, Michael West Virginia proud West Virginia mountaineer, a mountaineer.

Speaker 2 (11:53):
Oh, I've been. I've been.

Speaker 1 (11:54):
I've been on the monoga HeLa a few times. I've
called some mountaineer games in my time. I ate the
deer jerky have the mountaineer on the sideline and showing
my appreciation for things around there. You ever drive that
monoail around?

Speaker 2 (12:05):
Oh? Yeah, see there there's a monoail.

Speaker 1 (12:07):
Okay, go, Dave. You said you were gonna do it.

Speaker 2 (12:10):
Do it?

Speaker 3 (12:12):
River, Hold on for a second, Michael Grove, he's all
riled up over that eighth inning last night. Michael Grove.
I did not like the way Nick Castianos tried to
punk you last night and saying this is the day. Well,
I didn't like the way he was speaking to you.
I did not like that at all.

Speaker 2 (12:32):
Appreciate it.

Speaker 3 (12:33):
Yeah, and you're a nice guy. And I just felt
like maybe you should have shouted back to him number one,
suck it. Number two, maybe say this is the big
league's Nick Castanos.

Speaker 2 (12:42):
Were you to say it just like that? Yeah, the
one number one? Nick? Did any of those two phrases
go through your mind? Not really? I mean I was.

Speaker 3 (12:53):
Exactly. And he's got all that armor on his arm,
head to toe armor. He's well protected.

Speaker 5 (13:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (13:00):
I'm gonna leave that one alone, I think.

Speaker 3 (13:02):
And what about Gavin Lux being hit by Matt Strom.
I didn't like him just doing a stare down. I
would have liked to have seen Lux go out there
and take his legs out.

Speaker 2 (13:10):
Oh yeah, you think Gavin's got that in him?

Speaker 3 (13:12):
No, I do not. Anyway, it's great to have you
guys back here. River Ryan, you're a guy of the
day off.

Speaker 1 (13:22):
Huh.

Speaker 2 (13:24):
He looks like he just woke up, Grove. Did you
just wake up?

Speaker 6 (13:26):
I just spent some time in traffic I had to
take from the airport and back, and you guys know
how that goes.

Speaker 2 (13:30):
Lax or Burbo, Yeah, lax, lax. Why not Burbank? What
do you got against Burbanks?

Speaker 6 (13:36):
Gotta go to Manhattan, Kansas. I don't know if you
can get there from Bourbon.

Speaker 1 (13:39):
Hard to get man hard to get to hard to
get to Agieville, hard to get to the Little Apple
from Lax unless you do it.

Speaker 2 (13:44):
Through about that.

Speaker 3 (13:44):
Yeah, you guys can both relate to this because I
was talking to Charlie Huff, who is a legendary knuckleballer
but now a roving pitching instructor, and he has such
great things to say about not only you two, but
a lot of these young Dodger pitchers. What has been
your interactions with a guy like Charlie Huff in the
minor leagues if you recall even seeing him? Kind of

(14:07):
watch you guys and maybe say little things as far
as help.

Speaker 5 (14:13):
I definitely want to try to learn how to throw
his knuckleball. I feel like that'd be a pretty cool
pitch to learn how to throw. I don't know if
I've ever used it in a game, but yeah, I
try to throw his knuckleball, like in spring training, taught
me how to throw it.

Speaker 2 (14:25):
Still can't throw it, but really you tried his knuckleball?

Speaker 5 (14:28):
Yeah, I physically can't throw knuckleball, So.

Speaker 2 (14:30):
You gotta have nice nails to really grasp onto that ball.
How about you Grove? You know Charlie huff at All.

Speaker 6 (14:36):
Oh, yeah, I know, Charlie's been around. I just like
talking to him about kind of like the stories he's got.
You know, he played for six hundred years.

Speaker 2 (14:44):
So or six hundred years ago, either.

Speaker 6 (14:47):
Way, No, but I think he always talks about I
think he gave up Hank Aarons like seven hundred and
fifty fourth home or something, so he's like, you know,
it's cool to give up the one, but I'm glad
I didn't give up the you know, the the record breakers.
So he's got a lot of a lot of cool stories,
and he played against a lot of really cool players.

(15:07):
So he's a good guy to have around.

Speaker 1 (15:09):
What did they tell you guys we're doing tonight? What
is your What is your role here tonight? I mean
other than this just.

Speaker 5 (15:14):
To take some photos with some fans, I believe, interact
with them a little bit.

Speaker 2 (15:17):
Okay, And and uh, and how long did they say
you had to be there?

Speaker 1 (15:20):
Did did they say like there was a time that
you had to check in just a.

Speaker 2 (15:23):
Couple of hours? I think really?

Speaker 1 (15:25):
Yeah? So did you think like when you got here,
like I'm just gonna mill around and then slowly kind
of like Homer Simpson just kind of fade into the back,
or or do you have a plan for that? Because
carrolse I bet he was already gone. Sean Green's too.

Speaker 2 (15:38):
Nice, He's gonna hang around. What do you think, River,
how long do you how long do you think you'll
hang out?

Speaker 5 (15:42):
As long as they need me to stay here?

Speaker 3 (15:44):
Look at this guy, the Team guy, this guy Team
guy a couple of years though, he's gonna have you know,
he came on the air the other day and he
totally ignored the question.

Speaker 2 (15:52):
I was worried about him. You know, like we are
with a lot of these La guys.

Speaker 1 (15:56):
They come out here. We were were that they're gonna
go Hollywood, bro. You know, we think the guy come
out here and I see that, yeah, you know what
I mean at Sunset Boulevard and you know my time
it was Paris Hilton, you know, or I don't know
who it is now Olivia Rodrigo or something. You don't
want to get caught up with these people. Do you
worry about that for your teammates? You worry about that
for yourself.

Speaker 6 (16:15):
Not for myself, but maybe forever I could.

Speaker 2 (16:17):
Yeah, it might change them.

Speaker 3 (16:18):
I mean, look at me my sunglasses. Hereto. Let me
break some news to you. I hit the streets more
than any Dodgers on these teams. These guys stay in
their rooms, order Postmates, and play video games.

Speaker 2 (16:30):
Is that pretty accurate?

Speaker 5 (16:31):
Spend a lot of time with the Lord too.

Speaker 2 (16:33):
I do that. That's right, that's right?

Speaker 3 (16:36):
Oh yeah, yeah, we are you grow? Do you agree
that I hit the streets more than any of you guys?

Speaker 2 (16:41):
Yeah? I want that on the record too. It's on
the record. I am on.

Speaker 3 (16:45):
I want you guys to be on the streets with me.
Behave Oh please, what do you think I'm doing? I
get home by three. This guy wants me to drive
him to Santa Monica tonight so he can go to
some hotel like he's twenty.

Speaker 2 (16:56):
One years Yeah. Oh yeah, I gotta watch some kids
at home and he wants me to drive them.

Speaker 1 (16:59):
Besides families out of town, you know, we had River
on the other day and he was talking about his
faith and I'm a Greek Orthodox, you know, Christian the origin,
you know, the New Testament's written in Greek, and uh,
and I was I always wonder this and it never
makes any sense, but I would say, you know, I
wonder if that guy would want to visit the Greek
Orthodox church with me over on Pico and Normandy, the

(17:19):
biggest Greek church in all of southern California.

Speaker 2 (17:23):
That's pretty cool. Oh, you got to go see it.
I think you'd like it.

Speaker 1 (17:25):
River.

Speaker 5 (17:26):
Yeah, I might go visit with my wife.

Speaker 2 (17:28):
Yeah, why check it out?

Speaker 1 (17:29):
Yeah bring yeah, coming to the church and I'll buy
you a udo across the street or something. That's what
you need to do, Dave. Take these guys to church.
They don't relate with you anymore. Going out in the
table service. It's a different time.

Speaker 3 (17:40):
You want to come to Saint Bernardine's Catholic Church in
West Hill, So he's not Catholic.

Speaker 2 (17:45):
Yeah, it's Greek Orthan Testament's not written in Latin. Just
sounds pretty cool.

Speaker 3 (17:49):
It's written in Greek, not Latin, but not in La Greek.
I mean, it's just a place in downtown La.

Speaker 2 (17:56):
Built by the studio.

Speaker 3 (17:58):
Anyway, you guys, have a great night. I'm sorry that
you had to answer for our last night' Shenanigan's.

Speaker 2 (18:03):
Grove and God bless you.

Speaker 3 (18:05):
Don't you appreciate I say it to your face. Instead
just talk behind your back.

Speaker 2 (18:08):
Yeah, thank you? There we go.

Speaker 6 (18:10):
Yeah, you're my voice.

Speaker 2 (18:11):

Very nice. Come on, guys, great gotchers and good people.
Grovy Grove and River.

Speaker 3 (18:29):
River Ryan and Michael Grove are gonna shove in October.
I was on baseball lingo that you won't find it
the Greek Orcadot or whatever you go, the Greek Orthodox Church.

Speaker 1 (18:39):
Are you trying to say that? Jesus the Greek Orthodox Jesus,
don't get me in trouble. You a fastball not in Greek.
You can't believe me, see.

Speaker 2 (18:46):
What I mean? Nice guy? Right?

Speaker 3 (18:48):
If I like grow, if I would have challenged an
eighties pitcher and said, hey, he kind kind of punked you,
he would have came over and choked the hell out
of me.

Speaker 2 (18:57):
But nice guy Grove right there.

Speaker 1 (19:00):
I don't know what you want from these guys, Dave.
We're on the warning track on a Thursday.

Speaker 4 (19:05):
One of the young guys gotta do all the fighting.
Where are the veterans out here to do something? Yeah,
where's a veteran?

Speaker 2 (19:10):
Where's Glass now to go do something?

Speaker 3 (19:11):
Because Heyward, they were in the dugout. You gotta you
gotta settle it between the lines. You don't just hop
over the dugout railing if none of the guys must
be chirping.

Speaker 4 (19:18):
From the sides over there from Glass.

Speaker 2 (19:19):
Now, those guys, how.

Speaker 3 (19:20):
About you keep the seeds in your mouth instead of
spinning them on the warning Track.

Speaker 1 (19:24):
I've never seen Kate's and Colin more humiliated when that
guy came over and started sweeping up them seeds.

Speaker 2 (19:29):
I mean, it's Dodger Stadium and it's not Burrows High.

And we are here because they promised we'd be here
for a.

Speaker 1 (20:32):
Few hours, and we're having a great time. We had
a really good conversation with Eric Carrols about last night's game,
a whole bunch of that about last night's game. We
talked to Sean Green a little bit more of a
of a large perspective, and then we had River Ryan
and Michael Grove over here. Dave had those guys on
the hot seat. One of them just had to tap
out to the Lord and Grove said, next question, and

(20:56):
we'll still be here all the way until seven o'clock. Now, Dave,
we didn't even really get started once we started the show.
Eric Carross came out here and grabbed my chi chees.
So last night seemed to be very upsetting for a
lot of Dodger fans. There was a lot of social
media anger. Obviously, there was a bad call that they

(21:17):
had a hard time overcoming, and there was a lot
of chirpin on Dodger Talk with you and Tim Cats
little riled up on social media as well. Yeah, I
believe somebody called him a nice guy team at some
point that was me, Okay, what happened last night? And
why is it such a big deal beyond just one
baseball game in one sixty two?

Speaker 3 (21:39):
Because Number one, who it was against a team that
they very well may see in the NLCS to get
to the World Series, a team that had already swept
them in Philadelphia, A team that the night before Dave
Roberts said he used Brent Honeywell for three innings so
he could have his full compliment of relievers the following
day to win a series. I think that's a lesson

(22:01):
in itself, that you got to try to win the
game that's in front of you instead of thinking that
you can win tomorrow night's game when there are no
guarantees as we saw last night.

Speaker 2 (22:11):
And as far.

Speaker 3 (22:12):
As the call in the sixth inning, a bad call,
a bad rule. From my understanding talking to an umpire
that I have some communication with, the call was accurate.

Speaker 2 (22:22):
The rule is really bad.

Speaker 3 (22:24):
Everybody can agree that the tiki tac of blocking a
base was bad, but let's not fool ourselves. I feel
like we all got distracted with that call and it
deflected really where the blame should go in that inning,
and that's to Joe Kelly, who is a fan favorite.
He has a mural up there down the left field

(22:45):
side of the reserve level Mariachi Joe. But the fact is,
Joe Kelly walked to batters in that inning, he wild
pitched a run in, and then he gave up a
three run home run to Kyle Schwarber on his third
best pitch. The game was not lost at third base.
It was lost when Joe Kelly melted down in that

(23:08):
sixth inning. And I feel like we all got distracted
by that call. But the facts are that's where the
Dodgers lost the game. And in the eighth inning, the
Phillies not only beat the Dodgers, they bullied the Dodgers
last night. That's what happened with Grove. Yes, that's what
happened with Grove. He came inside on Nick Castianos. I'm
sure Castianos was not aware that Michael Grove was on

(23:30):
the injured list for over two months. Maybe a little
rusty commanding his pitches inside. And let's not forget Castianos
looks like an NFL linebacker with all the armor that
he has on his front arm, the left arm. There
he has armor from his wrist to his shoulder. He's
got the chin protector on his helmet, so he was

(23:51):
not in any danger. And he dove into the pitch
and then he started screaming at Grove, this is the
big leaks repeatedly and was staring him down for a while,
and Grove, that's not cool, was looking at him the
way Grove was looking at me when I brought it up,
and Austin Barnes got between Castianos and the mound tried
to cool him off. And then in the bottom of

(24:13):
the eighth inning, Freddie Freeman let off the inning against
left hander all Storm matt Strom. Everybody loves Freddy. He
just came back after his son was fighting for his life.
So Matt Strom would have been a really really dirty
guy to hit Freddy Freeman.

Speaker 2 (24:27):
Nobody would do that.

Speaker 3 (24:29):
So he waited until Gavin Lux came up and plunked him.
Not you know, the rule is to go below the waist,
get him in the ass or the leg, but he
got him in the shoulder.

Speaker 2 (24:40):
He went high. That ain't cool. And all Gavin Lux
did was stare at him.

Speaker 1 (24:46):
So the Dodgers kind of just got pumped in a way.

Speaker 2 (24:50):
I mean, what happened? What do we watch him like?

Speaker 3 (24:53):
Two young guys got tested and they did not pass
the test against two veterans.

Speaker 2 (25:00):
That's what happened. And what should the response have been?

Speaker 3 (25:03):
Do you think I think Michael Grove should have shout
it back at Nick Castianos.

Speaker 2 (25:07):
Yeah, this is the big leagues.

Speaker 3 (25:09):
You see that guy right there, number sixteen, A nice guy,
first class guy, all class all the time, a great dancer.
Rick Monday, Wow, look at that. But when he stepped
between the lines, he was out to take your lunch money.
And Rick Munday and Dusty Baker, who's going to be honored?
And those teams they were the fiercest teams you would
ever see put on a Dodger uniform. That would not

(25:31):
have been acceptable last night.

Speaker 1 (25:33):
And maybe a problem I see as the postseason comes about, Dave,
you worry about that very.

Speaker 3 (25:39):
Much so the last two postseasons, the Padres and Diamondbags
were out for blood and the Dodgers treated it like
a regular season series.

Speaker 2 (25:48):
There was no urgency.

Speaker 3 (25:51):
I actually talked to Justin Turner about this after the
Dodgers were bounced by the Padres. I said, you guys
treated that like a regular season drove down on your own.

Speaker 2 (26:02):
That was a problem.

Speaker 3 (26:03):
At the hotel the team was staying in, maybe a
little too cushy.

Speaker 2 (26:06):
Oh wow, Well what did you want them in? A
Best Western day?

Speaker 3 (26:10):
Kind of take them out to the desert like Creed. Anyway,
that wasn't the issue. But the problem is during a
playoff series, usually when the team has to fly, they're
very close and they go out to a team dinner before.
But since it was San Diego, they all drove down
on their own like a season series. And he said,
you know what, you bring up a good point. Maybe
I should have arranged for a team bus to take

(26:31):
us all down there together. And let the families go
on their own. So that was that and the Diamondbacks,
I mean last year, the Dodger pitching was just in shamble.
So the Diamondbacks were hot. And they said once they
got six runs off of kersh on the first inning
coming off their division series or wild Card series went
over the Mets, their confidence just grew into a monster

(26:53):
and you couldn't stop it at that point.

Speaker 2 (26:54):
And that's what.

Speaker 1 (26:55):
Happens if you let somebody get confidence and you don't
take their chain right foot on the throat. You know,
It's what you used to say in the football world.
David Vasse is a co host. Today it's Petricks Some
Money Show. We are live at Dodger Stadium. That's our
promotions department. Tomorrow will be at Tarantula Hill. We'd love
to see out there at three o'clock, thousand Oaks stand up.

(27:16):
We got a lot of prizes to give away. We
are on the warning track. Ronnie is back in beautiful Burdbank.

Speaker 2 (27:23):
He's at the track, he's at the wall gone and
Ronny's playing music in my ear right.

Speaker 3 (27:30):
That's not the no, it's a there's some nice yacht
rock music going on at Dodger Stadium right now.

Speaker 1 (27:35):
But Ronnie is playing music in my ear too, right,
I can't tell because of the Oh okay, okay, good.

Speaker 2 (27:41):
All right, we're in good shack.

Speaker 4 (27:42):
You guys want to go ambush Rick Monday? Next segment, Well,
it didn't look like he wanted to come on.

Speaker 2 (27:46):
I was standing right here, got wireless. Mike's my man
in the field. Is your dad? I'm not going anywhere.
I'm gonna bring him over here. He's got a headset,
he's got a photo signing over there. All right, well
bring him over.

Speaker 4 (27:57):
He can't come over, he's gotta go to what's just here?

Speaker 2 (27:59):
Do you want me to go over there? No? Not really?
All right?

Speaker 1 (28:03):
Don't you talk to Rick Monday every day? Yes, it's hot,
I'm not walking over there, no problem. Let's stay right here,
let's chop it up. NFL kickoff. It's a sham. The
game's a joke. Now maybe next hour. I want to
talk some more about last night.

Speaker 2 (28:18):
Let's do it.

Speaker 1 (28:18):
I think it's really interesting that one game would get
everybody so Twitter.

Speaker 3 (28:21):
Packed and Dave Roberts got ejected for the first time
this season. Everybody calls in, screaming, criticizing, Dave no emotion
last night. He showed more emotion than any of his players.
Him and Miguel Ross more to come live from the.

Speaker 1 (28:37):
Stadium a golden off day, but not for Dave the
Petro Send Money Show on AM five seventy LA Sports,
not Michael Groover, River Ryan either. We are live from
the beautiful all access event Dodgers Stadium tonight.

Speaker 2 (28:57):
There's some kind of dinner. Is there a no?

Speaker 3 (29:02):
We are the entertainment tonight. Who are you not entertained?

Speaker 1 (29:06):
Well, We're only here till seven o'clock and then Fox
Sports Radio takes over. There's no off night Dodger Talk tonight,
because this four hour show is very Dodger oriented. We
talked to Eric Carrosshwan Green, River, Ryan, Michael Grove, David
Vasse has been riled and beguiled about last night's contest.
And I guess what I wanted to ask you about, Dave,

(29:27):
because there was a lot of reaction on Dodger Talk
and on social media, and it wasn't just generated by you.
A lot of people felt this way. And you've been
a part of a lot of these years. You've seen
the team in very different positions over the years. In August,
but always almost always going to win the division. Hey,

(29:47):
do you usually get a vibe that this one game
that happened here or there, like last night's game sort
of told the tale about the team and what was
to come. Have you felt that way before, because last
night obviously struck a nerve with you.

Speaker 2 (30:01):
Yeah, no doubt.

Speaker 3 (30:02):
Petros In twenty thirteen against the Arizona Diamondbacks, if you remember,
Zach Grienki was at the center of a benches clearing brawl.
Mark McGuire, Yeah, had turner ward by the next Jos Cabano.
That was Japi Puig years, same thing happened with the Padres,
Carlos Quintin and Matt Kemp and Zach Grienki and all
those guys. So I have seen Dodger teams over the

(30:25):
last thirteen years that would have reacted a lot differently
than what I saw last night. So I have that
point of reference at this point in time, being around
the team for the last thirteen years and seeing different teams.

Speaker 2 (30:39):
Where is the chase at least?

Speaker 3 (30:41):
Where are the Justin Turners, Where are the David Freezes,
Where are the Puigs? Where are the Matt Kemps and
Andre e Thiers. Those teams would not have accepted this
nick punto Skip Schumacher. Those teams would not have accepted
what the Phillies were trying to do to them and Frank.
Now the door has been opened for other teams to

(31:04):
challenge the Dodgers.

Speaker 1 (31:06):
Do you think that they will respond? Do you think
that they understand that last night was a bad look?
Do you think something will happen different because of last night?

Speaker 3 (31:16):
Look, now, when I come out here for batting practice
tomorrow's stretch, maybe some guys heard what I had to
say last night.

Speaker 2 (31:22):
Maybe they're listening right now.

Speaker 3 (31:24):
But you can take your anger and try to be
a tough guy with me, but that means absolutely nothing.
When the bell rings. It's easy to bully or try
to punk me. But let's see it between the lines.
And I can't answer that question yet, Petros, because I
want to see how this team responds if they're confronted
in the same situation, and if you go back to

(31:45):
the last road trip.

Speaker 2 (31:46):
I brought this up last night as well.

Speaker 3 (31:48):
Gavin Lux was hit by a pitch by Houston Astros
pitcher Renel Blanco, and Lux tried to puff out his
chest to him. I remember that, and Blanco just puffed
back out, sorry, screaming back.

Speaker 2 (31:59):
At the catcher came after his ass too, that's.

Speaker 3 (32:01):
Right, And he just sheepishly went back into a shell
and took his base right, and somebody came out. Nobody
came out of the dugout nothing exactly. So now that's
twice in the last ten games it has happened to
the same guy, Gavin Lux.

Speaker 2 (32:16):
Well, we have a few textosos to react to sold
out to Chevy David Vasse is gonna get Grove killed
in the future with this advice? I don't think so.
I don't think so either.

Speaker 3 (32:29):
I feel like he learned something on how to react
to a situation like that last night as well.

Speaker 1 (32:35):
This says Otani is amazing until it's needed. Then with
Risp he's pedestrian.

Speaker 3 (32:41):
He is only hitting two forty five with runners in
scoring position this year?

Speaker 2 (32:45):
Is that not great? Dave?

Speaker 1 (32:48):
Attacking Ben, then attacking the Dodgers, now attacking great sports talk?
What a day when you got out of bed today, Dave,
did you feel like you were gonna choose violence in
this way?

Speaker 2 (33:01):
Listen? I try.

Speaker 3 (33:02):
Petrosif taught me to detach myself but when I feel
passionately about this organization, I feel passionately about those players.

Speaker 2 (33:11):
I want to see.

Speaker 3 (33:13):
I want to see what can happen when when things
are presented like they were last night, Vassa bringing.

Speaker 2 (33:21):
The edge lmao.

Speaker 1 (33:24):
His ass must still be concussed from the slide in Milwaukee.

Speaker 3 (33:29):
I'm going back to Milwaukee next week for sports net
LA and AM five to seventy LA. Sports Trey Turner
actually asked me yesterday whether or not I'm going down
the slide.

Speaker 2 (33:39):
I said, a lot of people want me to. There
is a demand.

Speaker 3 (33:42):
You know what is follow up question was you're going
to get paid? I said, that's a great idea. He said, yeah,
put a hat in the clubhouse. If those players want
you to go down the slide again, they should put
at least one hundred dollars into that hat. Just put
on all that armor like Castiano's had on last night. Exactly,
You'll be in great shape, then, son of a bitch.
P I can't believe I'm one hundred percent on Dave's

(34:04):
side in this situation. The Dodgers are just a oh
gollie g f that not up and tell Philly to
eat a fat puzzo. Ooh, so a lot of people
very angry about last name. Max Munsey has edge. When's
he coming back. He's going out on a rehab assignment
this week. And you're right, Max Munsey would not have

(34:24):
put up with that. We've seen that on full display
numerous times. So he's going out on a rehab assignment,
so is Tommy Edmond. And since we and they're gonna
be out there for a week to get some game action.
When they return, Max Munsey will be at third base
and right where we're positioned. Tommy Edmund will be patrolling

(34:45):
when he returns in center field.

Speaker 2 (34:48):
And that's a good thing, great thing.

Speaker 3 (34:50):
Andrew Freeman has told me at least three times in
the last four days how much he has coveted Tommy
Edmond and how much of an elite centerfielder he is. Centerfielder, shortstop,
second baseman. But the need right now is in centerfield.

Speaker 1 (35:07):
All right, We got one more hour at least, and
then another one of great sports talk all the way
until seven o'clock live from Dodger Stadium right here and
right centerfield, your Dodger station. David Vasse is here. We
got a whole other hours, Thank you, sir, sure appreciate you,

(35:28):
thank you, thank you, Ronnie
