seventy LA Sports and streaming on the iHeartRadio WAP.

It's the longest running afternoon sports show in the city.

Speaker 1 (00:32):
Wherever you get your podcasts now Here's Petros Papadacus and
Matt money Smith.

Speaker 3 (00:40):
Truth is treason in the Empire of Lies.

Speaker 2 (00:46):
Going to Yukes, Petro Say Money and five seven other
sports live everywhere the iHeart Radio app. We got Dodgers
on DAK at six. We have first pitch at seven
to fifteen from the Galpin Motors broadcast with a huge series,
Huge seven gay huge ten games over the next ten days.
No rest for the weary. The Dodgers start tonight, it

(01:06):
will carry all the way through next Sunday. You got
three with the Giants, three with the Phillies and then
four with the Giants. Back at Dodger Stadium, and that
all gets started tonight with Yoshi Yamamoto on the mound
following eight and two thirds of no hit baseball, a
game which he would receive a no decision, eight and

(01:28):
two thirds, no hits, three nothing victory, two outs in
the night. The Dodgers did not win that game in Baltimore,
and since then they have won four straight. So at
least they got a little bit of heat going here. True,
but the Giants have won eight of their last ten.
The Mets had a complete collapse against the Phillies, losing
all four, and now the Giants are just one game
back of that final wild card spot, meaning if they

(01:51):
can attain that, it would be Dodgers Giants in the
first round and the wild card round.

Speaker 3 (01:57):
Of the playoffs.

Speaker 2 (01:57):
Oh exactly, Oh god, So a huge series, huge seven
games against the Giants.

Speaker 3 (02:04):
Damn night. Every night there'll be big games. And during
the day we have football, college football playing at College
Football Talk today with a whip around in the next hour.
Tomorrow we have a college football double header starting with
Wisconsin at Alabama at eight thirty, which is interesting. That's

(02:27):
the Tim Cats game, the Compass Media Game, so Tim
will do Pete pre half a post for that game
before he does Dodgers Giants again on Saturday night. And
that one is interesting because Alabama a Confederate state, no doubt.
Wisconsin Union and Camp Randall where Wisconsin plays used to be.

(02:47):
The area around it used to be a training ground
and camp for Union soldiers, and then when the Civil
War began, it became a prison for Confederate soldiers. And
then when the winter came in Wisconsin, they all died
of the flu and the cold, and it became a

(03:07):
burial ground for Confederate soldiers. And this one is in Tuscaloosa.
Last year Alabama beat the crap out of them up
in Wisconsin. That is at eight thirty. So a little
bit of a old Civil War lore between the Badgers
and the Tide. And then Georgia versus Tennessee. You know,

(03:31):
the Confederate Army did not win one major battle in
Tennessee during the Civil War. They wouldn't have been fighting
against Georgia though. Georgia at Tennessee at twelve thirty. But
Matt today is a frogman, Friday krugman, krogmen frugly no

(03:52):
is a drop frugman. What we don't know. Is it ocean?
I want a frog man? Friday, The Petroson Money Show
embraces the sea, though some of us may be landlocked
and logan Utah. The Petrosen Money Show embraces the Pacific
Ocean and the greatness of the sea and those that

(04:13):
protect us from it. Like the big paddle out coming
up this weekend that Matt was talking about tomorrow Newport.

Speaker 2 (04:21):
Pierre then did go tenth Catalina to Newport paddle go
celebrate the folks, I think starting at eleven am.

Speaker 3 (04:30):
We also celebrate the greatness of Mike Nelson character played
by Lloyd Bridges and perhaps the greatest show ever produced.
See Hull, Come on, get something that help. It'll be
dark soon. You want to sit out here in this
raft all night? No, but we might have to, well
not if you do something.

Speaker 4 (04:47):
You want to listen to me for a minute. During
the war, I was in New DT. I've been stranded
in these rafts before.

Speaker 3 (04:53):
All right, and tell us what to do. Well, let's
not sit here and wait. Let's do something. Let's think first.

Speaker 4 (04:59):
Huh. It's the first law of survival. I gotta save
my strength. We might need it.

Speaker 3 (05:06):
That's right, it's three hour show. Todd lights say the
rules year Liar, Liar, liar? H was that the wrong order?

Speaker 2 (06:03):
Tops?

Speaker 3 (06:05):
What does this mean? It's not good to five? What
are you nuts? We still gotta take that Florida man,
You know what that's like these days? You got the
Navy everywhere, you got frogmen, you got the EC twos
with the satellite tracking, you got the spell two nine
of salt choppers up the ass. We're losing one out

(06:26):
of every nine loads. That's no dunk walk anymore.

Speaker 2 (06:30):
Let me tell you, forget about money.

Speaker 3 (06:32):
What do you suggest that's reasonable? What's reasonable? Is a
great day in great sports talk. But I guess we're
not gonna play Sea Lab again.

Speaker 2 (06:42):
No, you know, every now and then you shake it up.
You see if people are on their toes or not,
how many textos as you're gonna get that it's out
of order and that that's not all?

Speaker 3 (06:48):
It's fine? Yeah, that's it's so good. Well, I mean,
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (06:52):
Sometimes you need the remix, you know. Todd Terry comes in,
He puts a sweet beat underneath it, and he improves
the song. Not a big deal.

Speaker 3 (06:58):
If the Dodgers falter in San Francisco.

Speaker 2 (07:01):
I it'll have nothing to do with the order in
which we played Todd lights indeed, rule I fear if
they filter, hey, if they falter, it will have nothing
to do where we got a lot of moving parts.
You're in Logan, I'm in seal Beach, Kate's is in Burbank.
He's got a double header tomorrow. He's doing a thing

(07:24):
to happen post. You know, like there's a lot of
moving parts on the show today.

Speaker 3 (07:27):
Kevin Figures wouldn't get off the computer. He was hogging
the computer.

Speaker 2 (07:30):
That's the problem.

Speaker 3 (07:31):
I don't understand.

Speaker 2 (07:33):
What do you mean You don't understand when you've got
to upload a twenty seven minute interview with Ned Colletti,
it takes a minute. Okay, that doesn't happen in a second.
That takes a minute.

Speaker 5 (07:44):
If the Dodgers lose in San Francisco tonight, it's because
Yamamoto didn't do well, the bullpen blew it, or the
offense didn't produce.

Speaker 2 (07:51):
It's not because we had a different order for ceed.

Speaker 3 (07:54):
Low's not a lot of the time. That's how listeners
look at it. Here, I already got one text from
the seven to one to four. You know what it says, idiot.

Speaker 2 (08:02):
Well, who is the thirty minute guest on our lead
in today, Kates.

Speaker 3 (08:08):
Oh, come on, guys, it was Vin.

Speaker 2 (08:12):
Vinnie Bonson, Vinnie bonsignor nig Raiders Chargers got the big
Raiders charge. That is Monday night. By the way, they
will have a full twelve to three show on Monday. Well,
like we said, Monday night football game.

Speaker 3 (08:24):
Full slate of games on the station all weekend long.
I mean before we get to that, and that's gonna
be on KFI AM six forty. We got Dodgers on
on Monday here on Ami seventy LA Sports. So it
is what it is. As all the football coaches like
to say, oh here's another text I have OCD. My

(08:45):
Friday is all sorts of out of control right now,
this one out of order? What the hell? Well, this
will helping everybody, the original.

Speaker 2 (08:54):
We're helping everyone. We're we're every now. And then you know,
you throw the the gyro ball. It's not a two
seam fastball right down the pike. It's it's a gyro ball.
It's gonna get a little wacky, and that catcher is
gonna throw it right back to us. And we're still
gonna be on the mound for another pitch and it's
all good.

Speaker 3 (09:13):
Well, I am Matt in for the very first time
in Logan, Utah. I've never been to Logan, Utah before.
It is my friend. I've been to Utah before, but
this place is north of where I normally am in
Salt Lake City. I'm in Maverick Stadium, Merlin Olson Field,

(09:35):
famous Los Angeles ram It is a beautiful pastoral place,
the Cache Valley c A C h E. The Cache Valley.
I am not what you would call a confident traveler
in my middle age.

Speaker 2 (09:55):
A nice easy one though compared to East Lancey, A
little little hop over there to.

Speaker 3 (10:00):
It was smoother. The car wasn't there when I got out.
We had to get in an uber.

Speaker 2 (10:06):
Can you imagine I should have just got that kind
a plane and gone.

Speaker 3 (10:11):
Home right And then when I got to the hotel,
I'm sure he tried. Matt. I always think about getting
getting on just playing, going back to lax because I'm
gonna get right back on it. Fire up the studio
on Pico. I'm not doing this. I U. When we
got to the hotel, it's about an hour and twenty

(10:33):
minute drive up in the logan into the Cash Valley
and when I got to the hotel, and we always
try to make sure, you know, they book us in
the night before, so you get in your room in
the morning and get some rest, you know, before great
sports talk and meeting with Bronco Mendenhall, the head coach
at Utah State in all that. Wouldn't you know, Matt,

(10:57):
when I didn't show up last night, they just gave
it away my room to somebody else.

Speaker 2 (11:02):
Yeah, you gotta let them know to call them ahead
of time and say I'm not coming, but I'll be
there just bright and early. I'm gonna pay for the
night before. I want to check into my room at
eight am, and I am going to be there. That
is what Fox Travel is supposed to do, that's right.
And I dropped the ball.

Speaker 3 (11:18):
Standing there with my puzzo in my hand, being like, no, no, no,
I need a room. I ne need a room right now,
right now. So that was a shot of adrenaline.

Speaker 2 (11:26):
What time was this that this morning?

Speaker 3 (11:28):
Like ten am? Okay? Really, so that was a shot. Well,
you know, I mean the flight was at six and
then you know, so we're an hour ahead, so it
lands at like you know, eight, and then it took
like an hour and a half to get into uh
to logan, and I'm thinking, you know, I'm gonna get
a good nap before we get started. But that was
a shot of adrenaline that really upset me, and I

(11:51):
was not able to sleep. And then oh, no, right,
you don't understand these things affect me. Then I realized,
which always happens. I always forget something, whether it's a
razor or a toothbrush, or a cord for my seatpot

(12:12):
mask or something.

Speaker 6 (12:14):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (12:15):
In fact, one of our people here was like, yeah,
I remember you. I had to get a chord for
your seatpat mask a couple of years ago. And I
was like, oh god, oh, we play a game. What
if what did petrols forget? And see who gets it? Right?

Speaker 2 (12:25):
Go ahead, Kate, you're the one that started the game.
You start.

Speaker 5 (12:29):
Oh, let's see seatpat mask. You just mentioned it, so
it couldn't be that mask is intact.

Speaker 2 (12:36):
Okay, what else?

Speaker 5 (12:39):
Oh, I'm gonna go of well, your bag of medication.

Speaker 3 (12:45):
Like what kind of medicas?

Speaker 5 (12:46):
Well, you know if you need advil, tyland all, you know,
all that got it?

Speaker 3 (12:50):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (12:51):
No, I think we say got it? Like I have it.
That's wrong, Oh.

Speaker 5 (12:54):
You Oh, okay, gotcha.

Speaker 2 (12:57):
I am going to go with I'm gonna go with
your mini tub of beef tallow so your skin shines
when you hit the air.

Speaker 3 (13:05):
Now, that's just stupid. I will borrow make up from
the concierge of the sports lodge, Trent Rush, who is
my play by play man? Wow?

Speaker 2 (13:17):
The obvious to me, the obvious one is a belt,
because God knows we all forget belts, and that's my belt. Okay,
so you caught you kept your belt.

Speaker 3 (13:28):
Got my belt on holding my knickers right now?

Speaker 2 (13:30):
Your tie? You forgot a tie? Gott a tie?

Speaker 3 (13:34):
I got my vineyard vines. Regotta tie?

Speaker 2 (13:37):
I got one?

Speaker 3 (13:38):
Oh? How about your essential oils?

Speaker 2 (13:43):
Good guess running good? Not bad at all?

Speaker 3 (13:46):
That is a good one. Got the essential oils? My
digests then, which is actually a Utah company? Dotera. You
guys got to be a little bit more basic.

Speaker 2 (14:00):
Underwear close socks?

Speaker 3 (14:04):
Correct? What I realized I had one pair of socks
only that the socks that I had.

Speaker 2 (14:13):
On tomorrow too?

Speaker 3 (14:16):
Well?

Speaker 2 (14:16):
No, what do you mean? No?

Speaker 3 (14:19):
I forgot ours?

Speaker 2 (14:20):
No? Yes, obviously you wear them tomorrow.

Speaker 3 (14:22):
I can't wear socks three days in a row. Why
not early morning airport socks?

Speaker 1 (14:29):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (14:30):
So what they're inside shoes? You're not going to take
your shoes off?

Speaker 3 (14:33):
I might? I mean, I like to be comfortable in
the booth. You're not. But come on, here's what I did.
I walked down Main Street and logan by some defunct
antique stores and things like that. I tried to walk
into a soda fountain burger place that is closed so
the door wouldn't open. And then I went to there

(14:55):
was a Starbucks, but I was like, I'm not doing that.
I'm going to the college place with the armpit girl
behind the counter. There we go grounds for coffee. How
was the coffee? Well, still got it. It's good drinking
in my cold brew. And I said to her the woman,
I said, is there perhaps a clothing store or something

(15:16):
of that nature around here where I could buy some socks?
And she looked at me and said, I have zero clue.
There is none that I can think of. And I
said okay, and I started walking back to the hotel
and I was about two doors down and there was
one right there, a clothing store, a boogie one too.

(15:36):
So it cost me sixty dollars for three pairs of socks.

Speaker 2 (15:39):
Sixty dollars when you already had a pair of socks
that you could wear tomorrow.

Speaker 3 (15:46):
But they were nice socks, and I figured, now I
can use these socks this year break get them. Well,
my son's been stealing my socks, so I feel like
being in a Nevies. No, these new Logan socks.

Speaker 2 (16:00):
Are they dress socks or they like casual socks?

Speaker 3 (16:03):
Well, there was like one I'll take a picture for
sixty bucks. I sure as hell. Hope they're like twenty
bucks each, I guess. Yeah. And tube socks they were like,
you know these are for hiking, these are all day socks.

Speaker 2 (16:17):
Well, that seems like they'd be a little thick to
throw into a pair of loafers.

Speaker 3 (16:20):
Well, I like to wear my vans, as you know, Matt,
I don't loaf around too much. Call it a football game.

Speaker 2 (16:27):
That's right, they're shooting you a waiste up, I wrecked.
It really doesn't matter if you have socks or not.

Speaker 3 (16:31):
Yeah, but I want to wear socks, you know, just
for my own personal comfort. Sure, so I forgot socks,
but was able to turn it around and get socks,
and I tried not to be like the teen wolf
keg of beer moment when they told me they didn't
have a room for me, you know, give me beer.

(16:54):
I didn't. I didn't want to do that, but I
was no. I mustn't. I must not have been I
must not have been pleased, because Trent Rush was like,
don't worry, take it easy, take it.

Speaker 2 (17:05):
Uh No, I think that that to me is my
It is easily. I think easily my number one where
I will do the moment because.

Speaker 3 (17:17):
The I book myself early into the East Lansing thing,
and I even remember the name of the nice gay
gentleman Derek who uh he was gay. He had a
big flag and a whole thing, you know, like a
whole you know, he was very I think you've established that. Yes,
well you know he was very h Yes, I got it.

Speaker 2 (17:37):
He was very gay.

Speaker 3 (17:38):
He let you the room. He was leading forward, you know,
he's leading. Yes, I got you reality and which is great,
you know, I think, especially since he had my room
ready for me in East Lancing, it was no problem.
The point moment of truth. You give him your driver's license,
you tell him you know it's the morning, and you
say I'm checking in I was checked in for last night,

(18:00):
and you expect to be treated like an American gentleman, and.

Speaker 2 (18:05):
You've already been charged.

Speaker 3 (18:07):
This woman gave me the I like, wait a minute,
we you know y'all didn't tell us that you weren't
coming in last I was like.

Speaker 2 (18:13):
Yeah, yah, yeah, well you charged me. You've already charged
me for that room. Yeah, that one never flies with
me because I know you've you've already charged me, right, Well, yeah,
you gotta have a twenty four hour cancer, that's right.
So you've already charged me for the night, which means
it's my room, right.

Speaker 3 (18:28):
And then they then they got like they got to
play like hotel djenga right to get you into a room,
like you know, they got to sign the magna carta
to get you set up for a room that you're
already paid for.

Speaker 2 (18:40):
Exactly, I know you have a room. There is zero
point zero percent chance that there is not one open
room in this hotel. You have charged me for my
room from last night, and you will give me that
room whichever one you pick right now.

Speaker 3 (18:50):
So there was that, and then I got here after
paying sixty dollars.

Speaker 2 (18:54):
How long did that take? Ten minutes? Five minutes.

Speaker 3 (18:58):
Yeah, but you know the worst part is, you know,
you get riled up and now you're trying to go
to sleep for two hours and it was hard. I
was unhappy. And now I'm here and when I got here,
laid there with my eyes closed, breathing shallowly. And then

(19:19):
I got here to Merlin olsen Field and was having
trouble connecting my machine, which is not something I'm super
used to fall. Yeah, so that has been a whole
thing to get my And then once we got the
machine connected, I got kicked out of the home radio
booth by the Utah State people who did not seem

(19:42):
pleased with me. And now I'm in the Air Force
booth and three military looking guys came in like looking around,
like what are you doing in here? So it's been
quite an adventure here in Logan, Matt, little bit of
a bumpy ride for your boy who does not travel
well at all. I do not hit curveballs on the
maybe at home, but not on the road. So hopefully

(20:05):
we have a smooth day of great sports.

Speaker 5 (20:07):
You would be a Colorado o'rocky, always good at home
putting up numbers at altitude, but on the.

Speaker 3 (20:12):
Road you get into the gas on the road winless.
So I'm here and I'm trying my best.

Speaker 2 (20:21):
So what's the plan for tonight?

Speaker 3 (20:24):
We have a meeting with Bronco Mendenhall. He moved us
to tonight, okay. And after I meet with him and
his coordinators, I will have a cheeseburger or something. I
will scour Logan for maybe a drink.

Speaker 2 (20:39):
Will you go to the original Crumble Cookie and choose
from their cookies and cream cake, confetti milkshake, brownie batter,
pumpkin cake, and salted caramel cheesecake offering for today?

Speaker 3 (20:52):
As you know, because of the lack of vices of
the people of Utah, sweets are.

Speaker 2 (20:57):
A really big big deal.

Speaker 3 (20:59):
Yeah, you get the Ugtail at BYU and now you
have the Crumble Cookies here and Logan.

Speaker 5 (21:08):
It's right there on main Street though you can't miss it.
And Logan's got what one street light on main Street.

Speaker 3 (21:14):
So Kyle Weddingham breast cake, which is very popular in Utah.
It's not Lake City. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (21:19):
TikTok loves the Crumble reviews. You could launch your TikTok
page with your review of this week's Crumble release.

Speaker 3 (21:27):
I saw something on Instagram that crumble cookies are like
literally made of poison.

Speaker 2 (21:33):
That doesn't seem good considering how many cookies they sell,
how popular they are. That would be bad. Well, I
guess we're fine. Sugar is essentially poison, though, right.

Speaker 3 (21:44):
I guess I made it. I'm here. I'm here with
the concierges of the sports Lodge, Trent Rush.

Speaker 2 (21:55):
Would you care to take a guess how many grams
of sugar is in the cook Key's in cream, Oreo
cake available if you want to talk about they're literally poison?
Eighty two grams wow.

Speaker 3 (22:10):
Of sugar, and I wouldn't know where to start. Is
that a lot?

Speaker 2 (22:13):
Eighty two grams? The one cookie is nine hundred and
eighty calories. Your cheeseburger will have less calories than that cookie.
And that's if you get the double bacon with an
onion ring and the blue cheese crumble on it as well.

Speaker 3 (22:32):
Yeah, Oh, David Vasso, I'm not going there. David Vassi
will join us next. God, those socks they were too
expensive now way too expensive. Just you have found a
sock story.

Speaker 2 (22:54):
I was just so pleased to have found expensive.

(25:09):
How are you out there?

the pregame show. So yeah, things are great. Freddie's getting
a lot of David Bathsey on his birthday. Whether he
likes it or not, there's been a.

Speaker 3 (25:25):
Lot of Yeah, he's got to be thrilled. There's a
lot of people that have been back for the Dodgers recently.
You know, Vessi has been back and pitching, and Edmund's
been back and months he is back. Is Will Smith
back playing?

Speaker 8 (25:37):
And I I haven't seen the lineup, but I did
see Will Smith last night in the hotel lobby and
we did knuckles. But he made sure to knuckle me
up with his left hand, So I don't know if
that's a telling sign or not. But nonetheless, concerning that

(25:58):
he was a late scratch, ben Wartbitt was told to
catch that final game against the Rockies like ten minutes
before first pitch Will Smith. Workitt didn't even catch Blake
Snell in the bullpen before he came out for first pitch.
So the first time that he actually received a pitch
from Blake Snell was when they were warming up for

(26:21):
the game on the Major League now, not in the bullpen.

Speaker 2 (26:24):
And you're nice enough to do this right now with us, Dave.
The lineup just posted, No Will Smith, it is rart
Vedett catcher. They are going to play Confordo in left field,
so Rojas gets the rest tonight as Tommy Edmund will
play second base. But you mentioned him, and like you said,
he doesn't even catch a single pitch in the bullpen
of Snell. The first when he catches is on the

(26:45):
mound and the warm up right before the start of
the top of the first and yet Snell goes six scoreless.
And I do believe he's been kind of the primary
catcher at these four I think he's done what four
of these last six starts or something like that has
been Rortved. What a great job this dude is done,
and what a great pickup.

Speaker 8 (27:00):
Yeah, he deserves a lot of credit because he has
never caught any of these guys and he has what
caught two or three pitchers that have had no hitters
into the seventh inning, and Yamamoto, who's on the mountain tonight,
he'll be paired up with him after for the first
time since Yamamoto took a no hitter into the ninth inning.
So yeah, I mean, you can't say enough about what

(27:23):
he's done. This is very unusual and my understanding from
what I was told from other players, is that work
that was getting shook off by glass Now a few
different times. But my understanding is talking to players is
that he had the right idea, just wasn't calling the
right off speed pitch. So when glass Now wanted a slider,

(27:46):
he was calling for the curve ball. But he had
the right idea. So I mean seemingly has a great
feel for what the pitcher is throwing that night. It's
just about where he's gonna get to and how he
gets to those pitches. But yeah, I mean he deserves
a lot of credit. Not an ideal situation, but also
brings up the question about whether or not, when Dalton

(28:07):
Rushing is healthy enough, is Ben Wartbitt a better fit
to be the backup catcher and Dalton Rushing? Because Dalton
Rushing is an everyday player, he's a blue chip prospect
not used to this role. Is Ben Rortbitt a better
answer in this role backing up Will Smith is a
real question.

Speaker 2 (28:27):
Well, Dave just kind of build on that because I
was reading he's out of options, so you bring up
Rushing and send him down. That's it. Guy's gone, Like
what do you think have you seen enough that especially
considering the injury to rushing and like you said, not
necessarily the best way to use him, and he hasn't
been as effective as a guy that's deployed maybe once

(28:49):
a week at the most or twice a week at
the most. Would you keep roart Fit?

Speaker 8 (28:55):
I from what I've gathered, I would. I would the
information I've gathered, Yes, I feel like den roart Fit
would be for this specific role, not putting Dalton Rushing down.
This is not a role that he has ever been
used to. If you're asking me to play Andrew Friedman,
I would say yes from what I the information I've gathered.

Speaker 3 (29:15):
He's done a great job catching those starting pitchers as
the Dodger starters have been dominant. David Vassy is our guest,
but the bullpen is still a pretty big concern. Vassay
Matt has been talking about it a lot. What is
the level of concern at this point and what will
they do going forward other than just run the same

(29:38):
dudes out there to get their boob scooped out.

Speaker 8 (29:41):
Yeah, the good news is they got Vescia back. Jack
Dreyer has been phenomenal. I talked to him on Tuesday
and he told me his arm feels great. He's throwing
more innings and has more appearances in his professional career
this season, and his body seemingly is holding up. He's
maybe getting a little bit more arm care than he
has before. But certainly him and Bessie have been great

(30:04):
out of the bullpen. From what I've gathered from Dodger players,
they have told me that the pitches Tanner Scott has made,
for the most part, had been good. They've just been unlucky.
The hitters have been barrelin up good pitches that Tanner
Scott has has delivered. So don't give up on Tanner Scott.

Speaker 3 (30:22):
Did you have a chance?

Speaker 2 (30:23):
I assume you did, Dave, I shouldn't say did you?
But what a timmy I've been saying after getting back
out there? How did he feel? Looks like I think
he went one for four, was playing center field, So
not an easy task there on your first bit back.
But what'd you see and what did he say?

Speaker 8 (30:37):
Yeah, it's going to be more of a test tonight
to see how he moves laterally at second base, because
in center field. Part of the reason why the Dodgers
feel like that's a safer position for him is the
movements out there are not the movements that caused his
right ankle to be tweaked as much as it was
running the basis and putting a lot more stress on

(31:00):
it with those lateral movements at second base. So this
will be a real This will be the real test
about how he feels tomorrow after he plays second base here.
And part of the reason I'm sure the Dodgers want
him at second base tonight is because out here at
Oracle Park, it's a big outfield, especially in right center

(31:20):
field triples alley four point fifteen away from home plate.
That's part of the reason why the Dodgers I'm sure
have Edmund at second base tonight.

Speaker 3 (31:29):
All Right, Dave mookie Bets, when did it all turn around?
I mean, I know the answer to this, but for
the listeners, Yeah, when did it all turn around? For
Mookie Bets, it turned around.

Speaker 8 (31:40):
It felt like after he hit rock bottom in Tampa,
Florida and called upon his old buddy JD. Martinez, America's
DH to show up and to help him out with
some mechanical adjustments and then mentally, you know, when we
spoke to him after that last game in Tampa where
he was hitting two thirty one, and he said that
he was putting hitting in God's hands and it's not

(32:03):
worried about his season total numbers. That's when it changed,
the mentality change where he realized, no matter if I
go twenty for twenty, my numbers are not going to
look like Mookie Bets my entire career. So I'm just
going to focus on today and how to help the
team win today. And ever since then, it seems like
he's freed himself up mentally, and obviously the swings have

(32:25):
looked like Mookie Betts the last month.

Speaker 2 (32:28):
All Right, Dave, we'll have a great Friday night, an
awesome weekend series in San Francisco. You mentioned it's Freddy
Freeman's birthday and he's going to join you on Dodgers
on Deck. Very much looking forward to that, and maybe
this time we can get nine full innings of no
hit baseball instead of eight and two thirds and a
loss with Yamamoto on the mom We appreciate.

Speaker 8 (32:44):
It, no problem, guys, And I just want to point
out tomorrow night, Kershall will be on the mound, the
guy that has the lowest era in Oracle Park history,
and this is the last stop for the Dodgers here.
You never know. This could be cry Shaw's last start
at Oracle Park tomorrow night.

Speaker 2 (33:04):
I'll be tuning in.

Speaker 3 (33:07):
Have a great weekend, Thanks Dave. Well, there'll be some
reaction to the first segment. There's a reason I don't
leave the house. Things go wrong when I leave the house.

Speaker 2 (33:24):
Well, the you know, the the boss has told you
got to start leaving the house.

Speaker 3 (33:31):
They said we're doing a mix.

Speaker 2 (33:33):
Yeah, you know before I was no leaving a house.

Speaker 3 (33:36):
Well I still did a mix, but.

Speaker 2 (33:38):
Little mix, but not like this.

Speaker 3 (33:41):
No, I've never been to Logan, Utah staring at these
weird mountains. A lot of white people. No way, you
wouldn't believe it.

Speaker 2 (33:53):
It's crazy.

Speaker 3 (33:54):
But you know, you think, you think everybody would be nice.
But when I was walking, there was like a construction
guy in some way, and the construction guy yelled fu,
and there was another yell FU, and then the other
guy yelled out of his window idiot. And I was like, wow, wow,
a little bit of volatility here in the the Wahsatch.

Speaker 2 (34:12):
Book A Mormons a book, a Mormon's a living document.
You know, I have my uber driver. I was like,
what's the uh, what's that he goes, that's a tabernacle.
I said, well, what's that he goes, that's a temple.
I said, well, what's the difference. He said, Well, only
you can only go into one of them if you're right, Yeah,
if you pay your tith tabernacle or something, and yeah,

(34:34):
can you.

Speaker 3 (34:36):
No, I can go into one. But if you're even
if you're raised in the church and you're not like
up to date on your tithings and stuff, I don't
think you can go into the temple. All right, we'll
have more great sports talking a matter of moments.

Well, I'm allergic.

Speaker 2 (35:39):
Shop Hernandez Wholesale Flooring dot net because no sale beats wholesale.
Are you in the market for some flooring.

Speaker 3 (35:45):
P I am? I think look at that?

Speaker 2 (35:48):
Why not no sale beat wholesale? Right, Hernandez sale flooring.

Speaker 3 (35:52):
Does mister Hernandez come and put it in himself?

Speaker 2 (35:55):
I think he does. If you get the terra cotta.

Speaker 3 (35:58):
Well, somebody call me. I'm looking for that. I want
my house to be clinical with.

Speaker 2 (36:05):
Speish mission style.

Speaker 3 (36:09):
All right, Matt. We do have some text also reaction
to everything going on on the show line, brought to
you by your so called Toyota dealers. We make it easy. Uh.
This comes from Isabelle, who has COVID and wanted me
to tell everybody that she has COVID.

Speaker 2 (36:27):
I talked to you to tell me, and I picked
up the phone yesterday and she got very angry.

Speaker 3 (36:32):
I'm sorry.

Speaker 2 (36:32):
She's like, why didn't he tell you I had COVID?
I said, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (36:35):
Is.

Speaker 2 (36:36):
I can't answer that. I'm very upset.

Speaker 3 (36:38):
It says, come on, Pete, get real. It doesn't matter
what order the music is matters to some people.

Speaker 2 (36:47):
Yeah, Is He's been a little frustrated lately. I think
with the Padres closing the gap on the Dodgers, she's
been a little she's been wound a little tight, no doubt.

Speaker 3 (36:59):
Hey, Pie Rogan and Rodney is totally going to steal
this new game. What did Petros forget? It will eat
up at least twenty minutes of the content.

Speaker 2 (37:08):
Oh yeah, they have the cutting ned down to night.

Speaker 3 (37:12):
Forgot socks, so I had to go buy socks. And
now Matt's making fun of me for spending too much
money on socks because you had a.

Speaker 2 (37:19):
Pair of socks, one pair, one pair, which is plenty
for an individual on the road. You can see that
same pair for a second day.

Speaker 3 (37:27):
And regarding that, this says, I feel it already. This
is one of those things that Matt is really going
to enjoy shaming you for. And you know that's it's
not just because of my crippling anxiety, which it's become
worse and worse as I've gotten older.

Speaker 2 (37:45):
I am not gonna shame you for your socks. It
is a one day event. It will happen throughout the
course of the show and never be mentioned again.

Speaker 3 (37:53):
I don't know, Matt, this says the socks are like
the show Hail Tawny T shirt for one hundred bucks.

Speaker 2 (37:58):
That's true. Now, that was something that you furthered repeatedly.
I did not because I relate to that. I had
that experience, yes, you know, and I can relate to that.
You have kids and they say I want this, and
you're like, what that all right? Just buy it? And
you never forgive.

Speaker 3 (38:14):
Yourself and you're just like, oh my god. Yeah, I
know you're having a hard time pee. But the tapestry
of words you weave is only enriched by the adversity
you encounter. Yeah, it's been a rough day here in life.

Speaker 2 (38:28):
And also the atustry of words was quite brilliant.

Speaker 3 (38:30):
The altitude, you know, upsets my chest.

Speaker 2 (38:32):
Oh yeah, the headache and that's yeah, that's a bummer.

Speaker 3 (38:36):
Do you think Matt money Smith is healthy for your
mental state? I know that he's not. I've lived this
way for a long time and the answer is no,
I know that he is not.

Speaker 2 (38:51):
I disagree with that. I think I absolutely am.

Speaker 3 (38:55):
No. I still think of something Matt said like twenty
years ago, like let something your mom said, like an
old wives tale, and I'm like, oh, well, Matt's said,
so stupid. Uh, this is about the bachelor. Uh, the
new Bachelorette is it is a real there's a Utah connection.

Speaker 2 (39:16):
Uh the real secret lives of Mormon wives.

Speaker 3 (39:19):
Uh Huh. Frankie Paul what's her name, Kate Snowser.

Speaker 2 (39:23):
Frankie Paul Chanowski.

Speaker 3 (39:25):
And she's old, and she's got rective she's got three kids.
And this says Taylor Frankie Paul. Taylor Frankie Paul. Frankie
Paul is the name of a very very revered, legally
blind reggae singer from Jamaica who wears the thickest triple
vocals you've ever seen in your life because of his

(39:48):
troubled sight. This says Money's right. That Wizard's sleeve is
hardly a prize, more like punishment. Bonus bummer. She's a
soft swinger, so rand creeps have also chewed that gum.
I got that text at like five point thirty this

(40:10):
morning on the flight again. You know.

Speaker 6 (40:16):
Also, if I'm a contestant in my prizes, I've got
to I'm now supposed to marry a woman that's got
three kids by two dudes, and I've got to welcome
two other men into my life that are out that
are sharing children.

Speaker 3 (40:28):
You gotta really be into it, or are you not
that attractive? You could do like they normally do, just
break up after six weeks when the show's over, so
you know, you can always jump off the train. I'm
worried about the new bachelorette, Petros three kids and one's
a bastard? Or has Kate's put yesterday a bastard? Not

(40:48):
sure my mom's gonna like her. No, but I'm gonna
do it.

Speaker 2 (40:53):
No mom would like her. And she has got boltons
the size of Logan. Oh really, Oh yeah, dude, those
things are freaking bolted so tight.

Speaker 3 (41:03):
Well, this is a small perky town.

Speaker 2 (41:07):
I mean they are balloon they are ballooned bolt odds.

Speaker 3 (41:11):
I gotta really watch my f bombs and all my
this is it sounds like this is like this a
little bit. This ain't like uh, this ain't like Salt Lake, dude.
You know, in Salt Lake you either like full LDS
or you do naked yoga and you have one big dreadlock.
But out here it's.

Speaker 2 (41:28):
