a fighter play. I'm a Ward and Matt. There is

(01:25):
an event this Thursday at the Verizon Store in Pasadena.

Speaker 2 (01:29):
Indeed, saddle up your horse and make your way over
to three sixty eight South Lake Avenue four to six pm.
Get there early. It's your chance to win tickets to
win merch and Dave Roberts is going to be at
the Verizon store Thursday again. That is this Thursday. They
got a day off. Verizon Store, Pasadena, three sixty eight
South Lake Avenue, Thursday, August twenty eighth. Our friends at

(01:51):
Verizon brought us Anthony Banda a couple of weeks ago
into the iHeart locker room, and now they are taking
Dave Roberts out to you, the people South Avenue in Pasadena.

Speaker 3 (02:01):
All right, let's do the number of the day.

Speaker 2 (02:03):
Here's my number, number of the day, number of the
DAP as your Dodger station. This is I don't think
many people saw this. It happened prior to the weekend,
but it's so good I wanted to share it. We
love the Great Lakes Loons Dodgers affiliates, but they were
taken on and again another bit of a conundrum for
us because we love the Quad Cities. They were tacking

(02:24):
on the Quad City River Bandits, so you know, Bettendorf,
Rock Island, Mowleine, we love it all. A real conundrum,
but here we go. I'm gonna give you the lineage.
Here the timeline. Top of the seventh the catcher gets
ejected the River Bandits. The Quad Cities catcher gets ejected

(02:44):
when the ump comes to the mound is he's having
a conversation with the pitcher to tell him to move
it along. And I guess he am that for the
yump or something like that, because he threw him out
immediately as soon as he was walking up to break up.
So ketcher gets ejected right. Couple minutes later, in the
bottom of the inning, the Quad Cities manager is ejected

(03:07):
by the umpire because he comes out to argue that
a called strike three was so obviously a foul tip,
and the umpire, Richie Aaron Dondo, did not like his tone,
so he throws the manager out all right. Ten minutes later, again,

(03:27):
the River Bandits pitcher, this is the Quad Cities team
again called for a bock and a loon's run scores
and here is the audio of what happened next.

Speaker 4 (03:40):
What's going on now? I think we just had a
pitch timer violation that's allowing Giloff to score from.

Speaker 3 (03:47):
Third base crowd.

Speaker 4 (03:48):
Is NASA just going from bad doors for quad Cities
right now? How McKinnon's asking for an explanation the top
the third base dug outstairs. I'm not sure if there
was a pitch time or violation or a box that
was signaled. Looks like Richie's looking for some more baseballs.
Quad Cities is starting to warm up. Another man in

(04:10):
the bullpen, Realise has been hung out to dry and
someone else has just got thrown out. Someone in quad
Cities Dugout has been tossed. That's three ejections in this
eddot and I think it was Austin Charles who just
went back in. Austin he's not playing today. Hanyan Brown

(04:34):
was thrown out now five minutes ago.

Speaker 3 (04:38):
If you're watching on.

Speaker 4 (04:38):
Valley Sports Live and MILBTV, you're getting another look at
Richie Adondo ejecting somebody from the third base dugout. At
some point, Wow, did he get throw out?

Speaker 3 (04:50):
The ball boy?

Speaker 4 (04:51):
The Bandit's bat boy may have been ejected from the game,
and if so, that's the first time.

Speaker 2 (04:57):
With those baseballs, with that trio a base The ball
boy came out of the dugout, slammed the baseballs into
the umpire's hand, who then looked at him was like,
what the hell? And then through the ball boys slash batboy,
the batboy who brought the balls out out of the game, manager,
catcher and bat boy for a minor league team. And

(05:19):
the kid is baby faced. He can't be a day
over seventeen that got ejected the.

Speaker 3 (05:24):
Edge of seventeen.

Speaker 2 (05:25):
Yes, so great minor league baseball folks. And clearly you
could hear by the side of the crowd that one
took place in one of those four quad cities. I
don't know where the Gavin Porte, Davenport, Bettendorf. Was it
in Rock Island or Moleen, don't know, not sure. Maybe
it's in all four. Maybe the park is like the

(05:45):
four corners of Utah, Arizona, New Mexico, and Colorado. I
don't know. I don't know either, But you know, maybe
Robbie Aaron Dondo needs to lighten up a little bit.

Speaker 3 (05:57):
Perhaps it is time for the Word of the day.

Speaker 2 (06:01):
With his words, the word of the day.

Speaker 3 (06:04):
Today's word his old friend and colleague, me Sock on bro.

Speaker 5 (06:10):
ARMANI in the Twitter bands in mesak Man days, salts
your right.

Speaker 3 (06:20):
Me Sock has grown up and become a family man
and real estate man and done a lot of great
things and still holding it down in the Armenian community
in Glendale.

Speaker 6 (06:30):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (06:30):
He is battling kidney disease, and uh it's something we've
talked about with Mesk And I know you're on Conway today, Mesock.
How you doing. What's going on? Hey, Pee, I'm sorry
I missed you. I know me too. It's hot down
here in the basement as well.

Speaker 7 (06:43):
Yeah, I'll be on with Conway in a little bit.
But thanks for having me, Matt. Good to see you.

Speaker 2 (06:47):
Great to see you, me, Sock, we missed the heck
out of you. How are you doing.

Speaker 7 (06:49):
I'm doing okay, surviving one day at a time, you know, thankfully,
through the grace of dialysis. I'm alive and living and
I look decent considered.

Speaker 3 (07:01):
Yeah, fabulous. Yeah, generally.

Speaker 7 (07:04):
I don't look like the usual kidney patient because of
my age, and I try to eat well and all that,
because when your body doesn't have kidneys at work, everything
you put in doesn't get filtered out properly, so I
have to be very careful. Yeah, and thank you for
having me back.

Speaker 2 (07:22):
We'll talk to us, kind of walk us through what's
going on. Yeah.

Speaker 7 (07:24):
So a couple of years ago the kidneys stopped working,
and from then till just recently, one of the kidneys
was removed because of I was had an internal bleeding.
So I have one bad kidney left in my body.
So Matt, don't go to Brazil and risk your two
good kidneys.

Speaker 3 (07:40):
Please. He has to work.

Speaker 7 (07:44):
And you're like hotel please. A lot of kidney talk
today at the PMS show.

Speaker 3 (07:50):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (07:51):
So I've been on dialysis for almost two years. Unfortunately.
I go four times a week, and a great time
to catch up on the podcast and listen to you
there ye three and a half hours, three and a
half I was there this morning, Monday, Wednesday, Friday and
Saturday with a wife and a kid and somewhat of
a normal life. It's very inconvenient, obviously, but it keeps
me alive, whereas if it was the sixties, I'd probably

(08:13):
be gone by now. So I'm trying to get to
a point where I don't need dialysis, which is unfortunately
the only issue is finding a kidney donor. I'm on
the waiting list for a deceased kidney, which in California
is over ten years, so got a long ways to wait.
There you been on that list? Not two years, yeah,
just about two years. I'm also waiting in Arizona more years. Yeah,

(08:37):
Arizona is a bit of a shorter wait, about six years.
In Nebraska, where I'm also listed, about four to five
years ideally though a living Yeah, ideally though, a living
kidney lasts longer and it's just more likelihood of it
not giving issues to the recipient. So what I'm doing
this Wednesday, the twenty seventh is putting on kidney donation

(08:58):
awareness of it. Teach people what it means to be
a donor and what the patients like me go through. Unfortunately,
there's not enough info out there and a lot of misconceptions.
So we figured I'm working with an organization that does
swabbing and all. So right down the street in Glendale,
the land of my People, We're gonna do an event
and try to you know, raise awareness, teach people what

(09:20):
it means, and hopefully someone.

Speaker 2 (09:22):
Finds out you're gonna teach them that. Yeah, it's safe.
Don't have a kidney, save somebody's life and you're gonna
be fine for the rest of your life.

Speaker 3 (09:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (09:27):
I know multiple people that not only gave a kidney
to a loved don or somebody, and then they went
on to have more children, They play sports, they do everything.
They just have one kidney.

Speaker 2 (09:38):
But nothing's changed, not much.

Speaker 7 (09:39):
No, not much exactly. Yeah, So you know, it's the
event this Wednesday, the twenty seventh, seven o'clock after the show,
right down the street in Glendale. If anyone on some
more information, it's all over my social media so and
you guys have been gracious to repost things and all that,
so if they want to learn more, it's easy to
find the information. And unfortunately, about one hundred thousand Americans

(10:03):
are on dialysis this country, so there's not enough donors.
Even if it's not for me, If you've ever considered it,
do your research, learn more about it, because I didn't.

Speaker 2 (10:13):
Realize they do. They do.

Speaker 7 (10:16):
So if Matt, someone crazy enough when an a blood kidney,
wants to give me I'm an old blood, there's a
way where we can swap and they'll save another a
kidney patient and I'll get the next o Kidney and
miraculous advancements in this world from like Cedar Sinai and
all that.

Speaker 2 (10:33):
So there you go.

Speaker 3 (10:34):
Yeah, well, all right, we appreciate it again. On Wednesday,
what is the social media link? You can go to
my website.

Speaker 7 (10:42):
Yeah, follow me sock, you know, very easy roles, all right,
f O L L O W M I S S
A K.

Speaker 3 (10:49):
And we'll be looking forward to hearing you on Conway.
And we hope that Matt can come back where there's
two kidneys.

Speaker 2 (10:56):
Right, yeah, please Matt stay in the home.

Speaker 5 (11:00):

Speaker 3 (13:33):
With an inside look at the Dodgers.

Speaker 1 (13:36):
This is the Vass Report with David Vasse.

Speaker 3 (13:39):
The one and only David Vasse back in the saddle
with the Dodgers during a hot quite literally and figuratively
pennant race. Here in southern California, Hunter Green from his
alma mater, Sherman Oaks, Notre Dame on the Mound. You
see Dave on MLB Network, You see him on Spectrum
Sports Net of course, and right here Vampire seventy l

(14:01):
A sports Dave, what's cracking? How are you?

Speaker 5 (14:04):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (14:05):
Boo?

Speaker 4 (14:12):
Green?

Speaker 7 (14:15):
Okay, Babbie stop for a key momental.

Speaker 6 (14:22):
Followers, that was my guy, World champion Jose This guyano
got him. We got you. We got you guys.

Speaker 3 (14:34):
Wait to go, Dave, you did? You really did fool
thought we were on with unavision. Uh, thank you, Dave. Uh.
But hey, what a great weekend against the Padres. Uh
because it ended up with a victory on Sunday. But
for you on TV, you had to feel pretty good
about yourself.

Speaker 6 (14:54):
I guess. So I just try not to train right
the broadcast Petros. You know, I'm just trying to stay
in my and not you know, step on any toes.

Speaker 2 (15:03):
Some of these guys, Dave, You've known for a long time,
and that relationship certainly shines through. But the hero of
Sunday's game that salvaged the series for the Dodgers, Dalton Rushing.
He's only been around for a little while, but judging
by all the you know, the ass grabbing, the body language,
he stuck around to say thanks to you a couple
different times while you were still on camera before they

(15:25):
tossed it back to the studio. Seems like you've quickly
built a bit of a friendship with him.

Speaker 3 (15:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (15:31):
I've gotten to know know Dalton and Alex Freeland over
the course of the last two spring trainings. You know,
obviously I always tell these guys always see his highlights,
bios bloggers talking about you, I actually want to know
who you guys are and what you're about. And you know,
Dalton Rushing, it was evident that he had a certain

(15:51):
edge about himself in spring training and didn't want to
give an inch to anybody. He's an emotional player and
he's been pre thing there's no ways around it. But
for him to get that home run yesterday certainly had
the dougout erupt And a lot of times players talk
about the at that ahead of the home run, and

(16:11):
Michael Confordo had a great at that, a great walk
to set up Rushings home run. So you know a
lot of times the home run gets the attention, but
it's the at that right before that sometimes goes overlooked.
But the dougout erupted after Rushing got that home run,
and he erupted in the dugout. He was high fiving
guys harder than I've ever seen before. So it was

(16:34):
a good day for him and for the team.

Speaker 3 (16:36):
Who was Dave Roberts talking about on Saturday when he
was talking about better at bats and who needs to
have him?

Speaker 6 (16:45):
Yeah, it's interesting he was saying those type of things
after a Saturday night's game, because one of the team veterans,
Miguel Rojas, said the Dodgers had to do a better
job of adjusting in games, and Dave Roberts talked about
how certain players cannot just try to find their swing.
They've got to go with what they have that day.

(17:05):
Because it's not spring training. You don't have the luxury
of time anymore to try to find that swing. And
then after yesterday's game he singled out Andy Pajes and
said that Paes had his best at bets that he
had seen in a few weeks. So that makes me
believe Pahes was one of the guys he was talking about.

Speaker 2 (17:24):
Dave, is what you saw on Sunday for home runs
enough to make you feel better about where the team is?
Or against you know, I know one was you darbish,
but against that Padre pitching. Are you at all concerned
about this offense because it seems like these are two
teams that very well likely could meet in the postseason.

Speaker 6 (17:44):
Yeah, I'll say this, Matt, I'm not that concerned about
the offense in the fact that we know what they
can do and they're going to be getting Max Muncy
back here soon, keyk Hernandez, Tommy Edmands. So that's going
to change the dynamics of the offense and make the
lineup that much longer. But I will say this, let's
see what Dodger offense we get tonight. They've shown that

(18:05):
they can do it one game, two games in a series,
Let's see them do it for the entire seven game
Homestand I want to see if they can put together
yet bats that they had yesterday in tonight's game against
Hunter Green.

Speaker 3 (18:21):
David Vasse our guest, Dave, what was that heckler? What
did the heckler sound like? What kind of things was
he saying? Take us through that please?

Speaker 6 (18:31):
Yeah? You know, when I got down there to that
side of the Dodger dugout, he was still chirping, just
saying nonsense towards Kirby Yates. But I guess he was
really annoying throughout the entire game and telling show, hey, O'tani,
how bad he's been in the series, and just NonStop.
And Dave Roberts said it was one of the most

(18:52):
annoying fans he's ever been next to. So that's the
reason why Otani went over there. And killed him with kindness,
going up to him after the home run and giving
him a high five and letting him know who had
the last word in that game, not just him, but
the entire Dodger team let him know. And look, that's
one of the more unique seating situations of any major

(19:14):
league stadium. There is no other stadium in Major League
Baseball that I can recall that has a seat that
close to the opponent's dugout and there's security around there
in case they in case they get a little out
of hand. But that was that's a unique spot and
to have a fan like that, that's super annoying. Obviously

(19:37):
everybody wanted to shut him up, and Otani was the
one to do it.

Speaker 2 (19:40):
Oh and he did it with class in a gentlemanly manner.
You mentioned Kirby Yates, Dave, and it was sort of
the day, well, not the debut, the return, our first
bit of action we saw of Tanner Scott, Kirby Yates
against the Padre lineup, and both of them are perfect
in their innings. I'm assuming you had a chance to
chat with them into others kind of what did you see?
Did it look like how it's supposed to look. How

(20:02):
much better do you think these guys are, especially in
the case of Kirby with that back issue. Are they
fully healthy? You think.

Speaker 6 (20:10):
Fully healthy? Kirbyates told me, you know, the lower half
which was giving him problems, was part of the reason
why he wasn't able to really execute his money pitch,
which is the split fingered fastball. And you know he
had gotten to two strikes but for whatever reason wasn't
able to put away hitters. I will say this, Matt,
the Tanner Scott looked more like the Tanner Scott from

(20:31):
a year ago yesterday, and Kirby Ates looked like the
Kirby Ates from a year ago yesterday. But what they
both did during this time on the IL was not
only get healthy, but also take the time to reset
their mechanics to be as good as they were last year,
because it felt like they were both playing from behind

(20:54):
the last two weeks that they were on the active rosters,
So they took the time not only to get healthy,
but they both said to have mechanical adjustments so they
can be as good as they possibly can be going
down the stretch.

Speaker 3 (21:08):
Gavin Lutz tonight, Dave, is there going to be any
fanfare for him.

Speaker 6 (21:13):
Yeah, if you're coming to the game tonight, you want
to be in your seats early because the Dodgers aren't
going to present Gavin Lux with his championship ring after
tonight's national anthem, So you want to be here, be ready.
And Lux already faced the Dodgers in Cincinnati, So this
will be the second time, but first time that he's
back at Dodger Stadium since last year's parade, and first

(21:37):
time that he'll have his own championship ring. It's been
a long time coming for him to get his hands
on it.

Speaker 2 (21:43):
It's been a long time day. But we remember when
you had a conversation when Hunter Green was still in
high school with him when he came in to go
on Dodger Talk. He's now in his mid twenties, a
few seasons more than a few seasons logged in the majors.
I know the era looks good. Has he turned into
one of the best pictures some of the best stuff
in baseball?

Speaker 1 (22:01):
Is that?

Speaker 2 (22:01):
Does that happen from what we projected?

Speaker 6 (22:04):
It has? But he has had trouble staying healthy. He
did have Tommy John surgery, is back from that. He
just needs to stay healthy, and if he stays healthy,
he'll build that reputation and hopefully after that Tommy John surgery,
he will. But not only does he have a really
good fastball, he has a really good change up as well.

(22:24):
So that's something that the Dodgers are going to have
to be aware of and be ready, as Miguel Rojas
said a couple of nights ago, to make adjustments in
game if he's throwing those off speed pitches more than
his fastball, especially on first pitches.

Speaker 3 (22:40):
Well, a big muchas Gracias and Modelo, meet you a
lot of Monday to David Vasse and Viscayano for coming
on and showing us some love. I'll brought to you
by servicetitan dot com. Thank you, Dave, and have a

Speaker 2 (25:48):
Now that seems doable, right. My bangs are long enough,
I can get the Edgar. Your hair is stylish, Ye,
I need to get it cut. I was planning on
doing that this week so I can do the Edgar.
I mean, you know, I can go see Tom and
get a quick face tattoo.

Speaker 3 (26:06):
I don't know if he'll do it.

Speaker 2 (26:07):
You don't think he'll do it. Tattoo my face, Tattoo
my face real quick.

Speaker 3 (26:13):
You're right about his arms, Petros. They might think Matt
is a mercenary. I don't know, Like, I don't really
know what the mercenary action is.

Speaker 2 (26:23):
Like, yeah, I don't either. I just know petty crime.
You know, they say, don't have your phone out because
the streets are narrow, there's a lot of traffic, and
there's a lot of dudes that are just hanging out
of the windows and they'll snatch it right out of
your hands. Geez and keep driving.

Speaker 3 (26:41):
OMG. The best part is that Matt was trying to
plan this drive around Brazil before the game. Yeah, well
after they.

Speaker 2 (26:49):
Leave, Yeah, we leave as soon as the game's over.

Speaker 3 (26:52):
Once you get to the game, that's like a kebbat Craig.

Speaker 2 (26:55):
Like, the only decision I really had to make was
do I kind of risk it and leave of the game,
Like stay there until Friday morning because it's a nine
pm kick local time. It's like, can I stay down there,
spend an extra morning at the beach and then like
leave at like nine am?

Speaker 3 (27:17):
No, No, don't snake anybody's wave down there, Matt, you
thought war Child was rough. A gang of Brazilians all
speaking Portuguese will break you up, bro.

Speaker 2 (27:30):
Now that I have heard. I've heard that you've got
to be very careful in the water. That they are
they do not mess around.

Speaker 3 (27:37):
That Brazilian surfers are serious.

Speaker 2 (27:39):
Yes, that Brazilian surfers will beat the hell out of anyone, male, female, old, young.
They don't give a damn that They are very proprietary
about their ways. And you should not be paddling out
unless you are paddling out with somebody you know. Well,

(28:00):
would you I know someone who he's a former pro.
His name's Thiago.

Speaker 3 (28:06):
What's he doing down there waiting for you? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (28:09):
He lives in this little beach town and he's like, yeah,
if you can get to me, then I'm happy.

Speaker 3 (28:15):
Like Dad, he come pick you up.

Speaker 2 (28:17):
I think because I'm two hours.

Speaker 3 (28:19):
Away, doesn't he want to make the team.

Speaker 2 (28:26):
I don't know if he can get in with the security.

Speaker 3 (28:28):
All right, if there's one man who can survive stumbling
around the favelas it is for sure, drunkard hobo Smith,
much like his early morning beach fights. You're right, yeah,
you know, Matt is like a like the Harrison Ford
character in Patriot Games. You know, just that's just like
that flapping around internationally. It's just like Jack Ryan.

Speaker 2 (28:51):
Is Jack Ryan.

Speaker 3 (28:53):
Ye obstructions for Matt in sal Polo. Find a strip
club with great wings.

Speaker 2 (29:03):
I'm just here for the wings. I thought you had
a separate window. Hey Pee, I've been to Brazil the
last three years. Tell money he can get a driver
for the day super cheap and take him to serve.
