Speaker 3 (00:40):
All that we see or seem is but a dream
within a dream.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Call me ukes. I feel like I've heard that already.
Speaker 4 (00:50):
Today the Petros and Money Show Petros and Money from
two until four today. No Matt money Smith, he is
out traveling with the argers. But Petros, thank you for
letting me hold it down with you today. I know
the list of co hosts they were available was lengthy,
but you wanted to talk Dodgers baseball, so on that.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
Right, I wanted you to do your fourth and fifth
and then wait and do your sixth hour of Radio
today because it is Dodgers World Series Game six, Yoshinobu
Yamamoto against Gossman. It is going to be a real
(01:33):
rigamarole the Dodgers. Will they go down easy or will
they fight, fight, fight until the end. We shall see
tonight Morongo Casino Dodgers on Deck featuring Tim Kates and
of course our guests. In the very next segment, David
Vasse will hit you like a hurricane. Sorry, not a
(01:53):
good reference. That's a that's a bad one.
Speaker 4 (01:57):
Maybe you want to apologize and retractions.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
It's gonna hit you like a forty to the face.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
There you go, much better.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
Everybody looking forward to the game tonight because it could
be the last game of the season. But of course,
if you're an Angelino, god forbid and made the Dodgers
come through with a victory and force a Game seven,
which would be at five oh eight again tomorrow.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
You know, earlier on Scam we took phone calls and
kind of getting the pulse of the city going into
game six tonight, and of course we were on YouTube,
which was fantastic.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
All the comments, it was pretty mixed. Petros.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
It was fifty to fifty people freaking out people saying
the series is over, and then of course you got
the optimistic Dodger fans. We were saying, this is right
where we want them. We're gonna tie this up tonight
and tomorrow it's all about OTAWNI.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
Yeah, it's been a lot, and I've seen that a
few people, as we discussed, have adopted by the Dodgers,
were more tired out by the eighteen inning game. How
about that than the losers of the eighteen inning game.
And you know, every once in a while, I attempt,
I make an attempt at being earnest on x or
on the radio, and then everybody just acts like I
(03:08):
didn't say it at all. But anyway, that's a whole
different That's my problem.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
So thatat then excuse we're going to use now, is
that eighteen inning game really affected they're all?
Speaker 3 (03:17):
They went to Korea, they went to Japan. The eighteen
inning game blew them out. Having Prince Harry and Megan
Markle sitting there is not a good sign. Maybe all
the celebrities looking at them all hard blew them out.
Maybe it's the youth and exuberance of Toronto. Maybe just
maybe Toronto is a better team as a colective. It's
(03:39):
hard to imagine saying that on Dodger radio, but I
don't know. I mean, you can always come up with
reasons for the reasons something's not going your way, and
that's what sports radio during a championship in a local
market like Los Angeles or anywhere else is all about.
So here we are. I did do some recent for everybody,
(04:01):
and I thought you might appreciate this.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
Of course.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
Well, you don't have to act like I'm Steve Sachs
or anymore.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
I'm a history major, so I love history. I love
hearing things that have happened and why things have happened. Okay,
why things were built, and why things happened for a
certain reason.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Yes, this would help you out. Then, okay, your final
hour fun fast fact. Yeah, we're three fun fun fact.
This fun fact is about the city of Toronto, because
let's be honest, when this series is over, save a
parade up there, per God forbid. We're not going to
talk that much about Toronto in the near future. Probably.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
Yeah, I don't see any reason to talk about them.
Oh except for the Oilers when they play the Kings
in hockey. Then we really get into hockey. Yeah, we
really get annoy Edmonton Hockey.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
Get on that Sambotegh train. The Toronto Islands are a
chain of fifteen small islands right off of downtown Toronto
in Lake Ontario. Now it used to be a peninsula,
but there was a big storm in the eighteen fifties
(05:10):
and it made it a chain of islands. On the
Toronto Islands is one of those airports that Matt talked about,
the smaller one, the Toronto City Airport, several private yacht clubs,
a marina, and an amusement part whoa several beaches, a
(05:33):
ferry terminal, and a neighborhood where people live year round.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Pretty big islands.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
Well not really, I mean, but there's a nude beach,
which was the home to Toronto's very first gay Pride event.
And I got to be honest, I grew up by
a nude beach, you know. But people would have to
climb down a cliff and you'd always see the people
walking to the nude beach. And I don't think I
ever saw a woman walking to that beach everily. Yeah,
(06:03):
my entire life. It is the largest urban car free
community in North America. No cars, Oh like Catalina island. Yeah,
well did Catalina Island? There you can have a car,
it's just really hard to get one over there.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Oh gotcha.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
And then the golf carts are like cars because they
have exhaust engines on them, and so the streets are
all black and your feet get all black when you
walk around in your flip flops because of the golf
carts and the exhaust. But no, it is actually totally
car free. I mean maybe the cops have cars or something.
(06:42):
And there is one pedestrian tunnel that goes to the airport.
Seven hundred people live on the Toronto Islands. That And
I'm interested in this, I suppose because the same reason
you are, Tim, we are old. So I think we
found find that interesting.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
I do.
Speaker 4 (07:02):
And the final hour fun fact is brought to you
by Concordia University Irvine. The winter term is starting on
November seventeenth. Just go to CUI dot eedu slash coaching
to find out more. And of course we never stop learning.
You can go to Concordia University of Irvine and get
that master's degree.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
Would you like a lazier fun fact? Just really quick
about Toronto fact?
Speaker 1 (07:22):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (07:22):
We're three Absolutely you know I love Canada. Fact that's lazier.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
Yeah. Well the best that a lazier sports related fun
fact about the country of Canada, Okay, is that the SkyDome,
now known as Rogers Center, where the Dodgers will, hopefully
for Dodger fans, bring home a victory tonight, is the
very first stadium in the world with a retractable route.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
How about that?
Speaker 3 (07:49):
Did you know that?
Speaker 2 (07:50):
I did not know that. That's a good fun fact.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
All right.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
Hey that was built nineteen ninety ninety one, so yeah,
that makes sense.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
All right, Well, I'm gonna thank you, and that Matt's
never been so impressed with anything I've said.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
See, I like sports history related stuff.
Speaker 4 (08:05):
When you guys start going on these tangents about things
that are like obscure, I mean, what do.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
You mean obscure? I mean the Toronto Island that ties
to gain pride of it. Well, something always ties into
something like Okay, take this for instance, Okay, the word
of the day.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
His words, the word of the day.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
Okay, today's word is chicken attack. Now yesterday, and it's
yodling based yesterday. I was inspired Yeah, there it is
by our yodling dead guy. Birthday of the day, Ucla
Alumna pours up Patsy Montana with this great song from
the thirties. I want to be a cowboys sweetheart, all right,
(08:50):
turn it up. I love this song.
Speaker 4 (08:53):
Cow right on the Plains and Panzer on the great.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
We'll do the yodeling part and then we'll get onto
what's now that brings victory like.
Speaker 5 (09:20):
That?
Speaker 2 (09:20):
I love.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
But because tim of Yamamoto being on the mound and
him being a Japanese sports hero and a Dodger sports
hero and already a World Series hero, and of course
the Dodgers need Shohei Otani to do superhuman things, I
thought i'd play something that somebody shared with me. As
(09:58):
you hear the Japanese in the background, this is Japanese
yodeling in the song hold On in the song by
Japanese yodeler who's active in Germany with the Gregory Brothers.
Speaker 4 (10:17):
Okay, Japanese yodeler active in Germany. Okay, this guy lives
in Germany. Oh, you haven't heard of this because it's
got thirty million views on YouTube. I mean I just
barely figured out about six seven. Now you're talking about
a Japanese yodeler in Germany.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
Correct, it's takeo Ishi is the name of the guy.
And he yodels and he's been active in Japan. He's
got like five kids. He's born in Japan, but he
lives in Germany and he's active in Germany. And he
collaborated with these people, the Gregory Brothers, who are like
a you two musical comedy group, and they created this
(11:04):
song Chicken Attack. There's a sequel now called Pig Attack.
Maybe this can help the Dodgers. Let's listen to chicken attacks.
Speaker 5 (11:14):
With the power of nature competing into the And you
just know, my master, and I look in my eyes,
are you're about to be massively false?
Speaker 3 (11:26):
Game? Chick chick at.
Speaker 5 (11:36):
Let's face the black sen I love come. Let's about
have you a lawn chicken.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
Us go chicky go, No, chicken go check an attack.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
I don't know where you find these things. Well, this
is amazing.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
Somebody sent me there.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
It's more like a howl than it is a yodel.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
He's a yodeler major alone. And he was a high
school loaner and he heard yodeling on the radio and
it inspired him to become a yodeler. I don't know
how he ended up in Germany.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
We got coyotes where we live. It sounds like a
coyote howl.
Speaker 3 (12:21):
On what your man?
Speaker 5 (12:25):
That's all it fasted black save that's lawn ching.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
There. I mean, I'm not trying to steal the thunder
of the song of the day, you know, but you're hungry.
Show if the Dodgers win today. You remember Chicken Attack
and that we played Chicken Attack and we had great
(12:56):
Japanese yodling on the Pettersen Money Show on a frog
Man Friday. I remember that. All right, all right, thank you.
Here's my number number of the day.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
All right, pee, the number of the day is six six.
It is that you've got six days before you can
auction to try to get this piece of sports.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
Member rebellia and old Tani towering.
Speaker 6 (13:26):
Wall, high drive, right field. He's started again. Show hey
ol Tani to the top of the pavilion and right field.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
Somebody went up there and got it four hundred.
Speaker 4 (13:46):
And sixty nine feet four hundred and sixty nine feet.
That was home run number two of show. Heyo Tani's
three home runs in what is being called the single
greatest performance in baseball history. Game four of the NLCS
show Heyotani, six innings, ten strikeouts, the three home runs.
(14:07):
That one came on a blast to right center field
as the Dodger slugger hit it four hundred and sixty
nine feet. And now that baseball pee is up for auction.
Are you surprised? Are you surprised?
Speaker 2 (14:22):
Somebody got it?
Speaker 3 (14:22):
And now once coming on? I mean that's what that's
what you should do. I mean it's life changing. Maybe
not life changing, but very very good money.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
Well, it could be life changing.
Speaker 4 (14:33):
The ball was co signed by SCP Auctions and the
guy who got it Carlo Mendoza, who was apparently and
this is in the press release Petros, I'm not making
this up.
Speaker 3 (14:45):
Fred would have had him on if he wasn't getting
vtb'd it failed to finish the show for him.
Speaker 4 (14:49):
I don't think Fred saw the press release that came
out about an hour ago. Carlo Mendoza was eating nachos
when show Heyotani hit the blast, jumped into the bushes
and the center field plaza of Dodger Stadium to retrieve it.
Mendoza says, quote, as I was taking a bite of
my nachos, I saw O'tani hit his second homer. Then
(15:10):
I see a guy in front of me look up
and I think, no way, the ball comes out here.
Next thing I know, it bounces off the roof and
into the bushes. End quote. And now mister Carlo Mendoza
is auctioning off that baseball that went four hundred and
sixty nine feet and now has a plaque in the
pavilion in right field at Dodger Stadium, will be it's
(15:33):
going to go for it. Well, they're they're not comparing
it to Freddie Freeman's walk off Grand Slam Ball, but
they're saying that was the last time a ball went
up for auction like this, and that ball course went
for one point six five million dollars. This ball, will
it fetch that much? We'll find out. Begetting November fifth
(15:54):
is when it goes on auction. It goes through November
twenty second. Petros and they are expecting now, of course,
this is the company putting it on, and so they
want to pump it up. They expect that this baseball
the number two home run ball hit by shoe Aotani,
part of his three home run night, the one with
four hundred and sixty nine feet. They expect it to
get seven figures.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
I don't know if it gets that much, but.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
Well, either way, Carlo's gonna get paid. And good for
him for eating his nachos and then diving in the bushes.
Speaker 4 (16:28):
I mean, I was taking a bite of my nachos.
Tani hit his second homer. Then I see a guy
in front of me look up and I think, no way,
the ball comes out here. Next thing I know, it
bounces off the roof and into the bushes. Then he
comes out of the bushes with the baseball. Pretty impressive.
Imagine just eating nachos, grabbing a baseball, and you then
become a millionaire.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
Yeah, it just happens right next to you. You know,
It's like a meteor falling into the earth and you
grab it, you know. I mean.
Speaker 4 (16:54):
I took Sadie out to the outfield when she came
to one of the playoff games with me, and we
went out to the pavilion and I told her, head
on swivel, if a ball comes out here.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
We two could be millionaires.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
Did you say that?
Speaker 4 (17:04):
I told her look out for home run balls. Let's
if if one comes out here, we got to go
for it because we can see who was up, but
we just assume if it's a ball hit out here,
it's impressive.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
So we never get one. But you know, maybe next time.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
Maybe next time indeed, But right now it's time for
the moment we've all been waiting for, Ronnie. This is
a song of the day.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
Well, you know, on a day like today, there could
only be one.
Speaker 7 (17:32):
Huey Lewis and the News present today's song of the
day called if this is It?
Speaker 2 (17:38):
A necessary tune for a frog Man Friday.
Speaker 7 (17:41):
And usually when you hear this song, it's not very
good news, and today is no exception, as the Dodgers
are up against it, finding themselves on the verge of
elimination in Game six of the World Series with the
Blue Jays and Rogers Center in Toronto will be buzzing
tonight with the Blue Jays fans hoping to close it out,
(18:03):
and the Petrosen Money Show is reacting and acting with
a sense of urgency, spreading some positive mojo throughout this
two hour flex alert, leading into a World Series edition
of your Morongo Casino Dodgers on Deck show hosted by
our friend Tim Cats.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
What's coming Up at four o'clock. Let's go Dodgers. Thank you, Ronnie.
We will see. Indeed, if this is it, tonight is
the night Dger night, Yamamono on the mound. What stands
between him and baseball oblivion? The Toronto Blue Jays and
(18:40):

To Night Dodgers at Blue Jays, Game six of the
World Series, First pitches at five oh eight Yoshinobu Yamamoto
(19:53):
and Kevin Gossman is the pitching matchup and from the
field of the work site, Strauss Powers are World Series
coverage on AM FI seventy LA Sports, Strauss making history
as the first brand ever featured on professional baseball helmets,
Family owned, trusted, worldwide Strauss and Strauss dot Com. All right,
(20:14):
let's get to David Vasse, the Home of the Dodgers is.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
With an inside look at the Dodgers.
Speaker 3 (20:22):
This is the Vassi Report, with David Vasse, the one
and only David Vase, riding it out until the end.
And as he once channeled Apollo Creed, there is no
tomorrow for the Dodgers. They gotta win Tonight, Dodgers in Toronto.
Dave is with them. He will be done on Saturday,
(20:45):
no matter what, or perhaps tonight our Dodger reporter doing
the best work Spectrum Sportsnet MLB Network and right here
on AM five to seventy LA Sports. It is the
one and only David Vasse. Dave dramatic changes in the lineup.
I guess for both teams. With your guys Springer or
(21:06):
as you say, Springer being back, tell us what are
your impressions of the moves that the Dodgers have made here?
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (21:16):
Well, I was asking Dave Roberts about why Miguel Rojas
wasn't starting in game two, and here we are in
game six, finally, Miguel Rojas and the starting lineup at
second base, and Tommy Edmond's ankle apparently good enough to
plan the turf in Toronto in game six. We had
been told that they were hesitant to put him out
there because of concerns over his right ankle. Well, I
(21:39):
guess those concerns are not that serious anymore because he's
in center field. Rojas that second, and Mookie Betts dropped
down to the cleanup spot, which you know, I like too.
I like Will Smith hitting second. I like Freddie Freeman
hitting third behind show heyo Tani. I think that's a
lineup that maybe the Dodger should have turned to a
(22:02):
little bit earlier in the series.
Speaker 4 (22:04):
Dave, with Mooki in the cleanup spot, how does that
help it exactly? Is he going to see better pitches
in the cleanup spot. Is the way he's positioned behind
in front guys. How does this help him?
Speaker 8 (22:15):
Well, you know, I don't know if where he's hitting
in the lineup helps him. I think Mooki needs to
worry about himself no matter where he's hitting. I've been
told by multiple people around the team he's got to
start having fun and just go back to competing and
not worried about his mechanical swings or trying to guess
along with the pitcher. Just still out there and compete
(22:36):
in every ad. That and the reason why he takes
pressure off of him is because he's not hitting directly
behind O Tommy. I felt like in that eighteen inning
game he started to feel that pressure every time the
Blue Jay's walked O Tommy. So not being directly behind
O Tommy immediately took the pressure off.
Speaker 3 (22:56):
In the last game, the One and Only David Vassay
is our game is in Toronto. The Dodgers with the
workout yesterday, What was that like, Dave? What was the
vibe around the team?
Speaker 8 (23:09):
A very loose group, a very confident group. Dave Roberts
started off the workout by trying to race hit song
Kim from first to third and rounding second base, he
trip and fell and maybe pull the handstring and everybody
firsted laughing. That was at the very beginning of it.
So that started off a light of harder workout. I
(23:31):
talked to Keiky Hernandez and Freddie Freeman. Both seemed very confident.
Both said that the Dodgers' headspace is in a better
spot than it was twenty four hours before. And you know,
just being out here today, the Dodgers feel confident they
can make the adjustments necessary to be able to hit
Kevin Gossman. They just have to be more nimble as
(23:53):
the game goes on and understand what Gossman's trying to
do and be ready to hit the very first pitch.
And a lot of you know, coaches believe that the
Dodger hitters have been too passive on the first pitch
and they have to be more aggressive to be ready
for a fastball.
Speaker 4 (24:10):
David does that lean into what Dave Roberts had a
couple of times yesterday, and Kike even said it again
when you talk to him.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
The Dodgers need to fight. They need to be aggressive
and fight inside that box.
Speaker 8 (24:21):
Yeah, I think that's what it comes down to, don't
be afraid to, you know, get jammed and foul a
pitch off to live for the next pitch. That's what
the Blue Jays have done so well, and the Dodgers
when they're going well offensively, that's what they do. We
just haven't seen it a lot this postseason, and hopefully
they get some runners on and Dave Roberts starts to
(24:41):
put them in motion and create some opportunities where they
stay out of the double play and open up some
holes on the infield.
Speaker 4 (24:48):
David, you had a great nugget this morning with scam
And about Yoshi Yamamoto and being in a similar situation
they must win game in the postseason.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
Tell everybody about that.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (25:01):
The year before Yamamoto pitched for the Dodgers in Major
League Baseball, two years ago, he was in the Japan Series,
which is the equivalent of the World Series, and his
team in Japan was down similar to these Dodgers, three
games to two, and Yamamoto pitching Game six through a
complete game to force the game seven and his team
(25:23):
eventually won the Japan Series. He had fourteen strikeouts in
that complete game, So he's very familiar with this situation.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
I heard that this morning on SCAM and I regurgitated
it to a coffee person at the barista or baristole
at the Offset Coffee in Torrance. So, wow, thanks a lot, You're.
Speaker 8 (25:48):
Welcome, Petro. I just you know, I try to put
things into context, and certainly Yamamoto is the reason why
the Dodgers have so much confidence to be able to
force the game seven.
Speaker 3 (26:02):
Well, look, we live in a bigger city, I think
than Toronto, and it's pretty sprawled out, but we can
feel the excitement of the World Series in town. And
when you're on the verge of winning it, like the
Dodgers were last year, you can really feel the excitement.
What's the vibe like in Toronto? Now you've been there
twice in a week and a half, and people are
(26:24):
pretty geeked up. I would imagine.
Speaker 8 (26:26):
Petros I got here at about two thirty Eastern time
to Rogers Center and fans had been sitting there in
forty five degree cold, rainy weather, lining up camping out
to come inside.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
Here.
Speaker 8 (26:39):
This is a hockey city. These fans have that type
of hockey intensity. It's going to be rockets, and that's
why it's even more important for the Dodgers to get
some early runs to take this crowd out of it,
because it is going to be louder than with the
Dodgers experience the first two games. This city is tasting
(27:00):
its first World Series since nineteen ninety three. That's the
reason why there was a line six hours before first
pitch to get inside in forty degree weathers. So these
fans they wanted. They were not on the streets the
night before Halloween. But this city is ready to explode
(27:20):
on Halloween here in Toronto. The Blue Jays close it out.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
David, I imagine there's different scenarios depending on what happens
with Yamamoto tonight. If he's out early, if he goes
deep is one of the scenarios. Could you see Tyler
glass Now come in and pitch tonight.
Speaker 8 (27:33):
I could see him pitch an inning because I'm a
firm believer. With Dave Roberts leaving the door open for
Otani pitching in Game seven, the only way it could
happen is if O'tani opened Game seven and Glassnow would
not start and come in after that. So if the
Dodgers need glast Now for an inning, I think glass
(27:54):
Now could pitch tonight.
Speaker 3 (27:56):
All right, Dave, before we let you go, one of
the last things here. The Dodgers the eighteen inning game,
mostly in their thirties, guys in their early thirties. You're
around this team, you understand their energy. That might have
taken something out of them. Do you feel as if
they have their energy back? And do you feel I
don't know, I don't know that if that's an excuse,
(28:18):
but do you feel like that's a legitimate reason for
the Dodgers' bats to be so consado and tired in
the last two.
Speaker 8 (28:26):
Yeah, I thought that was a great point you brought up, Petros.
I feel like people are under selling just how this
group is thirty something as started the season earlier than
most all the way back in Tokyo and in spring training.
The second week of February, eighteen inning game on these guys,
I do believe it took its toll on them physically
(28:48):
and emotionally, mostly physically to bounce back. And that's why
having a day off yesterday, having a break between games
was advantageous to the Dodgers and Freddie Freeman. Again, the
Dodgers are in a great spot mentally and physically to
be able to force the game seven.
Speaker 3 (29:06):
Well, Dave, here's to you and your hard work all
year long. We know that you'll be on again tonight
and very possibly tomorrow as the Dodgers take on the
Blue Jays in game six tonight and they've got to
get a victory. We'll get to Maromo Casino Dodgers on
deck at four o'clock. Dave, thank you so much and
(29:28):
on behalf of the people of the city. Everybody appreciates
your hard work and your dedication to your job.
Speaker 8 (29:36):
Thank you, Petros. We appreciate your dedication as well.
Speaker 3 (29:41):
I'm in my basement all right, we'll be back with
more petros and money.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
What dedication from you?
Speaker 3 (29:47):
Hey, I'm sorry, what do you want? The guy wants
to give me credit? You want to be difficult about.
Speaker 4 (29:51):
It, or you just want you'd even come up here
for the great stonefire girl they were having for lunch today.
Speaker 2 (29:55):
They provided.
Speaker 3 (29:56):
There's one right down the street from my house. I'm
gonna go down there for a Halloween spread. Okay, everybody
knows that there's one right at the Pross Roads or
excuse me, right off Airport Drive in Torrents.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
Make sure you get those breadsticks by the way.
Speaker 3 (30:07):
Well, yes, thank you, Tim, I could have done without
the all right, and we shall return with more Petrosen
Money on AMPI seventy LA Sports. This is it tonight.
The Dodgers have got to find a way to quell
these angry, barking French Canadian loot Garuz Petrosen Money show
returns and wraps it up. And then a guy that
(30:29):
did the morning show and the afternoon show will do
the pregame show, the one and only Tim.

iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 3 (31:07):
Thanks for listening, everybody. Petro saying money on AM five
seventy LA Sports, your home of the Dodgers. Could tonight
be it? God forbid? After watching this team scuffle all
year and find a way to get hot in the playoffs,
are they gonna let these Canadian birds end it tonight?
(31:30):

That's it, two hours of great sports talk podcast. The
show on the iHeartRadio app or any other platform that
you like to get your podcasts. But it's on the

Yamamoto versus Gossman And remember one more time because I
(31:53):
know you want to get your just like Steve Sachs,
get out in the garden like you did when he
was a young farmer, and get those knees in the
You need sweet workwear for that. From the field of
the work site. Strauss powers our World Series coverage on
AMI seventy other than Tim Kats who powers it. Strauss
is making history as the first brand ever featured on
(32:15):
pro baseball helmets. Could tonight be the last night you
see that sticker? Night Family Owned, Trusted Worldwide Germany. What
a place Strauss dot com.
Speaker 4 (32:26):
You know, I know this season's gonna end one way
or another, either tonight or tomorrow, either as a winning
Series World Series winning team or as a team that
falls short yet again in the World Series. It's been
a hell of a ride, it is, but it's it's
like a ride that just abruptly ends. And I know
there's an end date and you can see the end dat.
I get that, but it does feel like you're on
(32:47):
this roller coaster for six months and the ups and downs,
and all of a sudden it just stops and you're
left with what Clippers basketball?
Speaker 3 (32:56):
Well, we have college football, which is a big deal.
Speaker 2 (32:59):
To me, but on a daily basis, you know, you
just can't we get college football all the time.
Speaker 3 (33:05):
I know there in the NFL football, I mean, you
got the Raiders. The Raiders are awesome.
Speaker 4 (33:10):
That's weekend stuff, you know, outside of a couple of
Monday nights, it's mostly Saturday Sunday college football, NFL the
Monday through Friday, though, you know, the daily grind of
baseball and having Dodger games to talk about petrols now
it's like, oh, there's a Clipper game on a Monday,
and then they play on a Thursday.
Speaker 3 (33:24):
There's an adjustment. There certainly is an adjustment to win
the season ends, especially if the Dodgers are in the
World Series or doing anything else. Right, because we talk Dodgers, Dodgers, Dodgers,
we go minutia, minutia, minutia. We spin our head backward
to think about different things, whether it's the Tomahawk's steak
(33:48):
for sale or the parking or Las Mila Mordes or
whatever's going on. I mean, we spend a lot of
time bending our knees for Dodger content because that that's
what's going on. And then the season ends and it
becomes about great sports talk again that's a sports talk,
you know. It becomes back to the film noir corner,
(34:11):
back to trying to do something about this, So trying
to do something about that, promoting a remote in Rancho Cucamonga,
different things like that, which is great. And then we'll
have Dodger news trickle in, whether there's a parade or
not a parade. We've got to go back to doing
our job.
Speaker 4 (34:28):
And what's interesting to see, Petros is the text you
get when this happens, because you get like half the
people are like, thank god, the baseball season over.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
Finally, great sports, great sports.
Speaker 3 (34:39):
That's always a good reason for me to feel bad
about myself. On either side, I get texts that say,
you guys are doing too much Dodgers. Were's the grab ass?
Speaker 1 (34:50):
Right?
Speaker 3 (34:50):
Where's the puzzo talk? Where is this? Where is that?
Do this, do that, don't say go everywhere with signs.
And then you get the people saying, how could you
be talking about, you know, whatever, The Dodgers are in
the World Series. How could you be doing this? How
could you be doing that? The Dodgers are in the
(35:11):
World Series. So there's a lot less of that the
Dodgers are in the World Series than anything else when
they're not in the World Series.
Speaker 6 (35:25):
Line brought to you by your so called Toyota dealers.
Speaker 3 (35:28):
We have the cart blaunch, the carte blanche to do
more of whatever we want. That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (35:33):
Speaking of text, I sent you a picture that is
he sent me, but I wasn't sure if she sent
it to you or not. But she is ready for
Game six. She has got her Dodger hat on.
Speaker 3 (35:43):
Yeah, she told me last night. She called me while
I was trying to get a sandwich and I had
to talk and the person behind the counter was like,
you had to talk somebody off the ledge about the Dodgers.
I was like, yeah, but I didn't go into explaining
the whole thing. But she called. Yeah, she called last
night and said that she was so unhappy that she
(36:04):
wasn't gonna wear her Dodger stuff today, so I'm glad
that she turned around.
Speaker 4 (36:10):
Oh she got the hat on Dodger jersey. She got
the old Dodger bat in her hand. The ones that
used to give away, the small ones that you can
use as a weapon. She got one of those in
her hand.
Speaker 3 (36:18):
Oh cool. Yeah, I'm surprised they let her have that.
Uh well, she she's gonna make it out like. One
of the highlights of the summer to me was her
showing up at our remote at Brewery X. So we're
looking forward to maybe seeing her at a BJ's restaurant
in brew House down the road as the show continues.
(36:40):
But tonight is the night. Who will be the hero?
Max Munsey, Yoshi Yamamoto, Let's go Clayton Kershaw Glass Now
at a hard high out of the pen. Who's to say?
Or will the Canadians shut the syrupy door on the
Dodger's head? Hopefully not Happy Halloween. Please be safe out there, everybody.
(37:04):
A huge thank you to Ronnie Fosio holding it down
all World Series and beyond at the studio at Ronnie
Fasio on Twitter for the awesome playlist. Tim Kaits Who's
Got Marango? Casino, Dodgers on deck, the tireless Tim Kates

Speaker 4 (00:50):
Today the Petros and Money Show Petros and Money from
two until four today. No Matt money Smith, he is
out traveling with the argers. But Petros, thank you for
letting me hold it down with you today. I know
the list of co hosts they were available was lengthy,
but you wanted to talk Dodgers baseball, so on that.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
Right, I wanted you to do your fourth and fifth
and then wait and do your sixth hour of Radio
today because it is Dodgers World Series Game six, Yoshinobu
Yamamoto against Gossman. It is going to be a real
(01:33):
rigamarole the Dodgers. Will they go down easy or will
they fight, fight, fight until the end. We shall see
tonight Morongo Casino Dodgers on Deck featuring Tim Kates and
of course our guests. In the very next segment, David
Vasse will hit you like a hurricane. Sorry, not a
(01:53):
good reference. That's a that's a bad one.
Speaker 4 (01:57):
Maybe you want to apologize and retractions.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
It's gonna hit you like a forty to the face.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
There you go, much better.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
Everybody looking forward to the game tonight because it could
be the last game of the season. But of course,
if you're an Angelino, god forbid and made the Dodgers
come through with a victory and force a Game seven,
which would be at five oh eight again tomorrow.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
You know, earlier on Scam we took phone calls and
kind of getting the pulse of the city going into
game six tonight, and of course we were on YouTube,
which was fantastic.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
All the comments, it was pretty mixed. Petros.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
It was fifty to fifty people freaking out people saying
the series is over, and then of course you got
the optimistic Dodger fans. We were saying, this is right
where we want them. We're gonna tie this up tonight
and tomorrow it's all about OTAWNI.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
Yeah, it's been a lot, and I've seen that a
few people, as we discussed, have adopted by the Dodgers,
were more tired out by the eighteen inning game. How
about that than the losers of the eighteen inning game.
And you know, every once in a while, I attempt,
I make an attempt at being earnest on x or
on the radio, and then everybody just acts like I
(03:08):
didn't say it at all. But anyway, that's a whole
different That's my problem.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
So thatat then excuse we're going to use now, is
that eighteen inning game really affected they're all?
Speaker 3 (03:17):
They went to Korea, they went to Japan. The eighteen
inning game blew them out. Having Prince Harry and Megan
Markle sitting there is not a good sign. Maybe all
the celebrities looking at them all hard blew them out.
Maybe it's the youth and exuberance of Toronto. Maybe just
maybe Toronto is a better team as a colective. It's
(03:39):
hard to imagine saying that on Dodger radio, but I
don't know. I mean, you can always come up with
reasons for the reasons something's not going your way, and
that's what sports radio during a championship in a local
market like Los Angeles or anywhere else is all about.
So here we are. I did do some recent for everybody,
(04:01):
and I thought you might appreciate this.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
Of course.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
Well, you don't have to act like I'm Steve Sachs
or anymore.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
I'm a history major, so I love history. I love
hearing things that have happened and why things have happened. Okay,
why things were built, and why things happened for a
certain reason.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Yes, this would help you out. Then, okay, your final
hour fun fast fact. Yeah, we're three fun fun fact.
This fun fact is about the city of Toronto, because
let's be honest, when this series is over, save a
parade up there, per God forbid. We're not going to
talk that much about Toronto in the near future. Probably.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
Yeah, I don't see any reason to talk about them.
Oh except for the Oilers when they play the Kings
in hockey. Then we really get into hockey. Yeah, we
really get annoy Edmonton Hockey.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
Get on that Sambotegh train. The Toronto Islands are a
chain of fifteen small islands right off of downtown Toronto
in Lake Ontario. Now it used to be a peninsula,
but there was a big storm in the eighteen fifties
(05:10):
and it made it a chain of islands. On the
Toronto Islands is one of those airports that Matt talked about,
the smaller one, the Toronto City Airport, several private yacht clubs,
a marina, and an amusement part whoa several beaches, a
(05:33):
ferry terminal, and a neighborhood where people live year round.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Pretty big islands.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
Well not really, I mean, but there's a nude beach,
which was the home to Toronto's very first gay Pride event.
And I got to be honest, I grew up by
a nude beach, you know. But people would have to
climb down a cliff and you'd always see the people
walking to the nude beach. And I don't think I
ever saw a woman walking to that beach everily. Yeah,
(06:03):
my entire life. It is the largest urban car free
community in North America. No cars, Oh like Catalina island. Yeah,
well did Catalina Island? There you can have a car,
it's just really hard to get one over there.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Oh gotcha.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
And then the golf carts are like cars because they
have exhaust engines on them, and so the streets are
all black and your feet get all black when you
walk around in your flip flops because of the golf
carts and the exhaust. But no, it is actually totally
car free. I mean maybe the cops have cars or something.
(06:42):
And there is one pedestrian tunnel that goes to the airport.
Seven hundred people live on the Toronto Islands. That And
I'm interested in this, I suppose because the same reason
you are, Tim, we are old. So I think we
found find that interesting.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
I do.
Speaker 4 (07:02):
And the final hour fun fact is brought to you
by Concordia University Irvine. The winter term is starting on
November seventeenth. Just go to CUI dot eedu slash coaching
to find out more. And of course we never stop learning.
You can go to Concordia University of Irvine and get
that master's degree.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
Would you like a lazier fun fact? Just really quick
about Toronto fact?
Speaker 1 (07:22):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (07:22):
We're three Absolutely you know I love Canada. Fact that's lazier.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
Yeah. Well the best that a lazier sports related fun
fact about the country of Canada, Okay, is that the SkyDome,
now known as Rogers Center, where the Dodgers will, hopefully
for Dodger fans, bring home a victory tonight, is the
very first stadium in the world with a retractable route.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
How about that?
Speaker 3 (07:49):
Did you know that?
Speaker 2 (07:50):
I did not know that. That's a good fun fact.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
All right.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
Hey that was built nineteen ninety ninety one, so yeah,
that makes sense.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
All right, Well, I'm gonna thank you, and that Matt's
never been so impressed with anything I've said.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
See, I like sports history related stuff.
Speaker 4 (08:05):
When you guys start going on these tangents about things
that are like obscure, I mean, what do.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
You mean obscure? I mean the Toronto Island that ties
to gain pride of it. Well, something always ties into
something like Okay, take this for instance, Okay, the word
of the day.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
His words, the word of the day.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
Okay, today's word is chicken attack. Now yesterday, and it's
yodling based yesterday. I was inspired Yeah, there it is
by our yodling dead guy. Birthday of the day, Ucla
Alumna pours up Patsy Montana with this great song from
the thirties. I want to be a cowboys sweetheart, all right,
(08:50):
turn it up. I love this song.
Speaker 4 (08:53):
Cow right on the Plains and Panzer on the great.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
We'll do the yodeling part and then we'll get onto
what's now that brings victory like.
Speaker 5 (09:20):
That?
Speaker 2 (09:20):
I love.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
But because tim of Yamamoto being on the mound and
him being a Japanese sports hero and a Dodger sports
hero and already a World Series hero, and of course
the Dodgers need Shohei Otani to do superhuman things, I
thought i'd play something that somebody shared with me. As
(09:58):
you hear the Japanese in the background, this is Japanese
yodeling in the song hold On in the song by
Japanese yodeler who's active in Germany with the Gregory Brothers.
Speaker 4 (10:17):
Okay, Japanese yodeler active in Germany. Okay, this guy lives
in Germany. Oh, you haven't heard of this because it's
got thirty million views on YouTube. I mean I just
barely figured out about six seven. Now you're talking about
a Japanese yodeler in Germany.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
Correct, it's takeo Ishi is the name of the guy.
And he yodels and he's been active in Japan. He's
got like five kids. He's born in Japan, but he
lives in Germany and he's active in Germany. And he
collaborated with these people, the Gregory Brothers, who are like
a you two musical comedy group, and they created this
(11:04):
song Chicken Attack. There's a sequel now called Pig Attack.
Maybe this can help the Dodgers. Let's listen to chicken attacks.
Speaker 5 (11:14):
With the power of nature competing into the And you
just know, my master, and I look in my eyes,
are you're about to be massively false?
Speaker 3 (11:26):
Game? Chick chick at.
Speaker 5 (11:36):
Let's face the black sen I love come. Let's about
have you a lawn chicken.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
Us go chicky go, No, chicken go check an attack.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
I don't know where you find these things. Well, this
is amazing.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
Somebody sent me there.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
It's more like a howl than it is a yodel.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
He's a yodeler major alone. And he was a high
school loaner and he heard yodeling on the radio and
it inspired him to become a yodeler. I don't know
how he ended up in Germany.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
We got coyotes where we live. It sounds like a
coyote howl.
Speaker 3 (12:21):
On what your man?
Speaker 5 (12:25):
That's all it fasted black save that's lawn ching.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
There. I mean, I'm not trying to steal the thunder
of the song of the day, you know, but you're hungry.
Show if the Dodgers win today. You remember Chicken Attack
and that we played Chicken Attack and we had great
(12:56):
Japanese yodling on the Pettersen Money Show on a frog
Man Friday. I remember that. All right, all right, thank you.
Here's my number number of the day.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
All right, pee, the number of the day is six six.
It is that you've got six days before you can
auction to try to get this piece of sports.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
Member rebellia and old Tani towering.
Speaker 6 (13:26):
Wall, high drive, right field. He's started again. Show hey
ol Tani to the top of the pavilion and right field.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
Somebody went up there and got it four hundred.
Speaker 4 (13:46):
And sixty nine feet four hundred and sixty nine feet.
That was home run number two of show. Heyo Tani's
three home runs in what is being called the single
greatest performance in baseball history. Game four of the NLCS
show Heyotani, six innings, ten strikeouts, the three home runs.
(14:07):
That one came on a blast to right center field
as the Dodger slugger hit it four hundred and sixty
nine feet. And now that baseball pee is up for auction.
Are you surprised? Are you surprised?
Speaker 2 (14:22):
Somebody got it?
Speaker 3 (14:22):
And now once coming on? I mean that's what that's
what you should do. I mean it's life changing. Maybe
not life changing, but very very good money.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
Well, it could be life changing.
Speaker 4 (14:33):
The ball was co signed by SCP Auctions and the
guy who got it Carlo Mendoza, who was apparently and
this is in the press release Petros, I'm not making
this up.
Speaker 3 (14:45):
Fred would have had him on if he wasn't getting
vtb'd it failed to finish the show for him.
Speaker 4 (14:49):
I don't think Fred saw the press release that came
out about an hour ago. Carlo Mendoza was eating nachos
when show Heyotani hit the blast, jumped into the bushes
and the center field plaza of Dodger Stadium to retrieve it.
Mendoza says, quote, as I was taking a bite of
my nachos, I saw O'tani hit his second homer. Then
(15:10):
I see a guy in front of me look up
and I think, no way, the ball comes out here.
Next thing I know, it bounces off the roof and
into the bushes. End quote. And now mister Carlo Mendoza
is auctioning off that baseball that went four hundred and
sixty nine feet and now has a plaque in the
pavilion in right field at Dodger Stadium, will be it's
(15:33):
going to go for it. Well, they're they're not comparing
it to Freddie Freeman's walk off Grand Slam Ball, but
they're saying that was the last time a ball went
up for auction like this, and that ball course went
for one point six five million dollars. This ball, will
it fetch that much? We'll find out. Begetting November fifth
(15:54):
is when it goes on auction. It goes through November
twenty second. Petros and they are expecting now, of course,
this is the company putting it on, and so they
want to pump it up. They expect that this baseball
the number two home run ball hit by shoe Aotani,
part of his three home run night, the one with
four hundred and sixty nine feet. They expect it to
get seven figures.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
I don't know if it gets that much, but.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
Well, either way, Carlo's gonna get paid. And good for
him for eating his nachos and then diving in the bushes.
Speaker 4 (16:28):
I mean, I was taking a bite of my nachos.
Tani hit his second homer. Then I see a guy
in front of me look up and I think, no way,
the ball comes out here. Next thing I know, it
bounces off the roof and into the bushes. Then he
comes out of the bushes with the baseball. Pretty impressive.
Imagine just eating nachos, grabbing a baseball, and you then
become a millionaire.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
Yeah, it just happens right next to you. You know,
It's like a meteor falling into the earth and you
grab it, you know. I mean.
Speaker 4 (16:54):
I took Sadie out to the outfield when she came
to one of the playoff games with me, and we
went out to the pavilion and I told her, head
on swivel, if a ball comes out here.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
We two could be millionaires.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
Did you say that?
Speaker 4 (17:04):
I told her look out for home run balls. Let's
if if one comes out here, we got to go
for it because we can see who was up, but
we just assume if it's a ball hit out here,
it's impressive.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
So we never get one. But you know, maybe next time.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
Maybe next time indeed, But right now it's time for
the moment we've all been waiting for, Ronnie. This is
a song of the day.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
Well, you know, on a day like today, there could
only be one.
Speaker 7 (17:32):
Huey Lewis and the News present today's song of the
day called if this is It?
Speaker 2 (17:38):
A necessary tune for a frog Man Friday.
Speaker 7 (17:41):

good news, and today is no exception, as the Dodgers

elimination in Game six of the World Series with the
Blue Jays and Rogers Center in Toronto will be buzzing
tonight with the Blue Jays fans hoping to close it out,

To Night Dodgers at Blue Jays, Game six of the
World Series, First pitches at five oh eight Yoshinobu Yamamoto
(19:53):
and Kevin Gossman is the pitching matchup and from the
field of the work site, Strauss Powers are World Series
coverage on AM FI seventy LA Sports, Strauss making history
as the first brand ever featured on professional baseball helmets,
Family owned, trusted, worldwide Strauss and Strauss dot Com. All right,
(20:14):
let's get to David Vasse, the Home of the Dodgers is.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
With an inside look at the Dodgers.
Speaker 3 (20:22):
This is the Vassi Report, with David Vasse, the one
and only David Vase, riding it out until the end.
And as he once channeled Apollo Creed, there is no
tomorrow for the Dodgers. They gotta win Tonight, Dodgers in Toronto.
Dave is with them. He will be done on Saturday,
(20:45):
no matter what, or perhaps tonight our Dodger reporter doing
the best work Spectrum Sportsnet MLB Network and right here
on AM five to seventy LA Sports. It is the
one and only David Vasse. Dave dramatic changes in the lineup.
I guess for both teams. With your guys Springer or
(21:06):
as you say, Springer being back, tell us what are
your impressions of the moves that the Dodgers have made here?
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (21:16):
Well, I was asking Dave Roberts about why Miguel Rojas
wasn't starting in game two, and here we are in
game six, finally, Miguel Rojas and the starting lineup at
second base, and Tommy Edmond's ankle apparently good enough to
plan the turf in Toronto in game six. We had
been told that they were hesitant to put him out
there because of concerns over his right ankle. Well, I
(21:39):
guess those concerns are not that serious anymore because he's
in center field. Rojas that second, and Mookie Betts dropped
down to the cleanup spot, which you know, I like too.
I like Will Smith hitting second. I like Freddie Freeman
hitting third behind show heyo Tani. I think that's a
lineup that maybe the Dodger should have turned to a
(22:02):
little bit earlier in the series.
Speaker 4 (22:04):
Dave, with Mooki in the cleanup spot, how does that
help it exactly? Is he going to see better pitches
in the cleanup spot. Is the way he's positioned behind
in front guys. How does this help him?
Speaker 8 (22:15):
Well, you know, I don't know if where he's hitting
in the lineup helps him. I think Mooki needs to
worry about himself no matter where he's hitting. I've been
told by multiple people around the team he's got to
start having fun and just go back to competing and
not worried about his mechanical swings or trying to guess
along with the pitcher. Just still out there and compete
(22:36):
in every ad. That and the reason why he takes
pressure off of him is because he's not hitting directly
behind O Tommy. I felt like in that eighteen inning
game he started to feel that pressure every time the
Blue Jay's walked O Tommy. So not being directly behind
O Tommy immediately took the pressure off.
Speaker 3 (22:56):
In the last game, the One and Only David Vassay
is our game is in Toronto. The Dodgers with the
workout yesterday, What was that like, Dave? What was the
vibe around the team?
Speaker 8 (23:09):
A very loose group, a very confident group. Dave Roberts
started off the workout by trying to race hit song
Kim from first to third and rounding second base, he
trip and fell and maybe pull the handstring and everybody
firsted laughing. That was at the very beginning of it.
So that started off a light of harder workout. I
(23:31):
talked to Keiky Hernandez and Freddie Freeman. Both seemed very confident.
Both said that the Dodgers' headspace is in a better
spot than it was twenty four hours before. And you know,
just being out here today, the Dodgers feel confident they
can make the adjustments necessary to be able to hit
Kevin Gossman. They just have to be more nimble as
(23:53):
the game goes on and understand what Gossman's trying to
do and be ready to hit the very first pitch.
And a lot of you know, coaches believe that the
Dodger hitters have been too passive on the first pitch
and they have to be more aggressive to be ready
for a fastball.
Speaker 4 (24:10):
David does that lean into what Dave Roberts had a
couple of times yesterday, and Kike even said it again
when you talk to him.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
The Dodgers need to fight. They need to be aggressive
and fight inside that box.
Speaker 8 (24:21):
Yeah, I think that's what it comes down to, don't
be afraid to, you know, get jammed and foul a
pitch off to live for the next pitch. That's what
the Blue Jays have done so well, and the Dodgers
when they're going well offensively, that's what they do. We
just haven't seen it a lot this postseason, and hopefully
they get some runners on and Dave Roberts starts to
(24:41):
put them in motion and create some opportunities where they
stay out of the double play and open up some
holes on the infield.
Speaker 4 (24:48):
David, you had a great nugget this morning with scam
And about Yoshi Yamamoto and being in a similar situation
they must win game in the postseason.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
Tell everybody about that.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (25:01):
The year before Yamamoto pitched for the Dodgers in Major
League Baseball, two years ago, he was in the Japan Series,
which is the equivalent of the World Series, and his
team in Japan was down similar to these Dodgers, three
games to two, and Yamamoto pitching Game six through a
complete game to force the game seven and his team
(25:23):
eventually won the Japan Series. He had fourteen strikeouts in
that complete game, So he's very familiar with this situation.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
I heard that this morning on SCAM and I regurgitated
it to a coffee person at the barista or baristole
at the Offset Coffee in Torrance. So, wow, thanks a lot, You're.
Speaker 8 (25:48):
Welcome, Petro. I just you know, I try to put
things into context, and certainly Yamamoto is the reason why
the Dodgers have so much confidence to be able to
force the game seven.
Speaker 3 (26:02):
Well, look, we live in a bigger city, I think
than Toronto, and it's pretty sprawled out, but we can
feel the excitement of the World Series in town. And
when you're on the verge of winning it, like the
Dodgers were last year, you can really feel the excitement.
What's the vibe like in Toronto? Now you've been there
twice in a week and a half, and people are
(26:24):
pretty geeked up. I would imagine.
Speaker 8 (26:26):
Petros I got here at about two thirty Eastern time
to Rogers Center and fans had been sitting there in
forty five degree cold, rainy weather, lining up camping out
to come inside.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
Here.
Speaker 8 (26:39):
This is a hockey city. These fans have that type
of hockey intensity. It's going to be rockets, and that's
why it's even more important for the Dodgers to get
some early runs to take this crowd out of it,
because it is going to be louder than with the
Dodgers experience the first two games. This city is tasting
(27:00):
its first World Series since nineteen ninety three. That's the
reason why there was a line six hours before first
pitch to get inside in forty degree weathers. So these
fans they wanted. They were not on the streets the
night before Halloween. But this city is ready to explode
(27:20):
on Halloween here in Toronto. The Blue Jays close it out.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
David, I imagine there's different scenarios depending on what happens
with Yamamoto tonight. If he's out early, if he goes
deep is one of the scenarios. Could you see Tyler
glass Now come in and pitch tonight.
Speaker 8 (27:33):
I could see him pitch an inning because I'm a
firm believer. With Dave Roberts leaving the door open for
Otani pitching in Game seven, the only way it could
happen is if O'tani opened Game seven and Glassnow would
not start and come in after that. So if the
Dodgers need glast Now for an inning, I think glass
(27:54):
Now could pitch tonight.
Speaker 3 (27:56):
All right, Dave, before we let you go, one of
the last things here. The Dodgers the eighteen inning game,
mostly in their thirties, guys in their early thirties. You're
around this team, you understand their energy. That might have
taken something out of them. Do you feel as if
they have their energy back? And do you feel I
don't know, I don't know that if that's an excuse,
(28:18):
but do you feel like that's a legitimate reason for
the Dodgers' bats to be so consado and tired in
the last two.
Speaker 8 (28:26):
Yeah, I thought that was a great point you brought up, Petros.
I feel like people are under selling just how this
group is thirty something as started the season earlier than
most all the way back in Tokyo and in spring training.
The second week of February, eighteen inning game on these guys,
I do believe it took its toll on them physically
(28:48):
and emotionally, mostly physically to bounce back. And that's why
having a day off yesterday, having a break between games
was advantageous to the Dodgers and Freddie Freeman. Again, the
Dodgers are in a great spot mentally and physically to
be able to force the game seven.
Speaker 3 (29:06):
Well, Dave, here's to you and your hard work all
year long. We know that you'll be on again tonight
and very possibly tomorrow as the Dodgers take on the
Blue Jays in game six tonight and they've got to
get a victory. We'll get to Maromo Casino Dodgers on
deck at four o'clock. Dave, thank you so much and
(29:28):
on behalf of the people of the city. Everybody appreciates
your hard work and your dedication to your job.
Speaker 8 (29:36):
Thank you, Petros. We appreciate your dedication as well.
Speaker 3 (29:41):
I'm in my basement all right, we'll be back with
more petros and money.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
What dedication from you?
Speaker 3 (29:47):
Hey, I'm sorry, what do you want? The guy wants
to give me credit? You want to be difficult about.
Speaker 4 (29:51):
It, or you just want you'd even come up here
for the great stonefire girl they were having for lunch today.
Speaker 2 (29:55):
They provided.
Speaker 3 (29:56):
There's one right down the street from my house. I'm
gonna go down there for a Halloween spread. Okay, everybody
knows that there's one right at the Pross Roads or
excuse me, right off Airport Drive in Torrents.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
Make sure you get those breadsticks by the way.
Speaker 3 (30:07):
Well, yes, thank you, Tim, I could have done without
the all right, and we shall return with more Petrosen
Money on AMPI seventy LA Sports. This is it tonight.
The Dodgers have got to find a way to quell
these angry, barking French Canadian loot Garuz Petrosen Money show
returns and wraps it up. And then a guy that

(32:15):
pro baseball helmets. Could tonight be the last night you
see that sticker? Night Family Owned, Trusted Worldwide Germany. What
a place Strauss dot com.
Speaker 4 (32:26):
You know, I know this season's gonna end one way
or another, either tonight or tomorrow, either as a winning
Series World Series winning team or as a team that
falls short yet again in the World Series. It's been
a hell of a ride, it is, but it's it's
like a ride that just abruptly ends. And I know
there's an end date and you can see the end dat.
I get that, but it does feel like you're on
(32:47):
this roller coaster for six months and the ups and downs,
and all of a sudden it just stops and you're
left with what Clippers basketball?
Speaker 3 (32:56):
Well, we have college football, which is a big deal.
Speaker 2 (32:59):
To me, but on a daily basis, you know, you
just can't we get college football all the time.
Speaker 3 (33:05):
I know there in the NFL football, I mean, you
got the Raiders. The Raiders are awesome.
Speaker 4 (33:10):
That's weekend stuff, you know, outside of a couple of
Monday nights, it's mostly Saturday Sunday college football, NFL the
Monday through Friday, though, you know, the daily grind of
baseball and having Dodger games to talk about petrols now
it's like, oh, there's a Clipper game on a Monday,
and then they play on a Thursday.
Speaker 3 (33:24):
There's an adjustment. There certainly is an adjustment to win
the season ends, especially if the Dodgers are in the
World Series or doing anything else. Right, because we talk Dodgers, Dodgers, Dodgers,
we go minutia, minutia, minutia. We spin our head backward
to think about different things, whether it's the Tomahawk's steak
(33:48):
for sale or the parking or Las Mila Mordes or
whatever's going on. I mean, we spend a lot of
time bending our knees for Dodger content because that that's
what's going on. And then the season ends and it
becomes about great sports talk again that's a sports talk,
you know. It becomes back to the film noir corner,
(34:11):
back to trying to do something about this, So trying
to do something about that, promoting a remote in Rancho Cucamonga,
different things like that, which is great. And then we'll
have Dodger news trickle in, whether there's a parade or
not a parade. We've got to go back to doing
our job.
Speaker 4 (34:28):
And what's interesting to see, Petros is the text you
get when this happens, because you get like half the
people are like, thank god, the baseball season over.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
Finally, great sports, great sports.
Speaker 3 (34:39):
That's always a good reason for me to feel bad
about myself. On either side, I get texts that say,
you guys are doing too much Dodgers. Were's the grab ass?
Speaker 1 (34:50):
Right?
Speaker 3 (34:50):
Where's the puzzo talk? Where is this? Where is that?
Do this, do that, don't say go everywhere with signs.
And then you get the people saying, how could you
be talking about, you know, whatever, The Dodgers are in
the World Series. How could you be doing this? How
could you be doing that? The Dodgers are in the
(35:11):
World Series. So there's a lot less of that the
Dodgers are in the World Series than anything else when
they're not in the World Series.
Speaker 6 (35:25):
Line brought to you by your so called Toyota dealers.
Speaker 3 (35:28):
We have the cart blaunch, the carte blanche to do
more of whatever we want. That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (35:33):
Speaking of text, I sent you a picture that is
he sent me, but I wasn't sure if she sent
it to you or not. But she is ready for
Game six. She has got her Dodger hat on.
Speaker 3 (35:43):
Yeah, she told me last night. She called me while
I was trying to get a sandwich and I had
to talk and the person behind the counter was like,
you had to talk somebody off the ledge about the Dodgers.
I was like, yeah, but I didn't go into explaining
the whole thing. But she called. Yeah, she called last
night and said that she was so unhappy that she
(36:04):
wasn't gonna wear her Dodger stuff today, so I'm glad
that she turned around.
Speaker 4 (36:10):
Oh she got the hat on Dodger jersey. She got
the old Dodger bat in her hand. The ones that
used to give away, the small ones that you can
use as a weapon. She got one of those in
her hand.
Speaker 3 (36:18):
Oh cool. Yeah, I'm surprised they let her have that.
Uh well, she she's gonna make it out like. One
of the highlights of the summer to me was her
showing up at our remote at Brewery X. So we're
looking forward to maybe seeing her at a BJ's restaurant
in brew House down the road as the show continues.
(36:40):
But tonight is the night. Who will be the hero?
Max Munsey, Yoshi Yamamoto, Let's go Clayton Kershaw Glass Now
at a hard high out of the pen. Who's to say?
Or will the Canadians shut the syrupy door on the
Dodger's head? Hopefully not Happy Halloween. Please be safe out there, everybody.
(37:04):
A huge thank you to Ronnie Fosio holding it down
all World Series and beyond at the studio at Ronnie
Fasio on Twitter for the awesome playlist. Tim Kaits Who's
Got Marango? Casino, Dodgers on deck, the tireless Tim Kates
at Tim Kates Petrosen money back on on Monday. Good
(37:25):
Luck to the Dodgers.
