Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, here we go. The day before fourth of July,
Fred Rogan and Ben Maller in today for Rodney on
a five to seventy l A Sports. How you doing, Ben,
I am.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Great, I'm fired up. I fives said there'd be no
pause in the game last night.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
They didn't.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
They pause after Kershaws at the record told me there
was gonna be no pause.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
No, No, here's what he says. I think I think
that if it happened at the end of an inning,
it could be different.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
Did he put a qualifier on? I thought he said
they weren't gonna pause the game.
Speaker 4 (00:29):
Now you're you're right?
Speaker 5 (00:29):
For Fred's right, Ben, Yet, as he said, if if
he breaks the record and it's one strike or something
like that, he doesn't want the game to be stopped.
But if that's at the end of an inning, then
he'll stop and do the pomping circumstance, which is exactly.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
What I don't know about say though that information. But yeah,
it was a good night last night. A lot of pi.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
I mean, cursh I didn't look great, Fred, but you know,
the pomp and circumstance was nice.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
I gotta tell you, is that thing was going on
and Dave Roberts had said before the game, he's gonna
manage this one a little differently, so in other words,
he's gonna let him get it. He got it on
his one hundredth pitch, but that was going on, I'm thinking,
oh my god, he's three strikeouts away and he's not
going to get it tonight. Oh no, I really thought that.
I thought, I know, the third eting it would be done.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
And it looked like he wasn't gonna get it.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
It looked like, you know, the White Sox, they're one
of the worst teams in baseball.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
I mean he was.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
He was scuffling Kershaw against the White Sox last night.
But yeah, and how awkward do you think it was
in the dugout Fred For Dave, who loves to pull
pitchers early, when Kershaw's going over eighty pitches and over
ninety pitches, Yeah, his his mind must have been like,
oh my god, I got to take him out. But
he had to leave him in. You know, it's like that.
That's a night normally Kirshaw would have been out what
(01:38):
twenty pitches earlier at least night.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
Yeah, absolutely no, he said before the game, I'll manage
this went a little differently. But as it was going
on and you were seeing that he wasn't really sharp,
and I thought the White Sox took this approach. I'll
be damned if you're gonna strike me out. So if
you do, I'm going down swinging. Those guys came up
at the beginning and they were just anything close. They
(02:02):
were swinging out to try to hit the ball. They
were not going to be that guy, and they didn't
want to be that team. And he didn't look crisp
early on. So as you're sitting there watching thinking to yourself,
oh god, oh my god, could this actually happen? Might
he not get it tonight? But then when he got
to two, you figured, okay, and he got to one
(02:27):
hundred or he got his third strike on it, his
hundredth pitch. What if he hadn't gotten at that inning?
I mean, what do you have let him go on one
hundred and twenty pitches to get it? Just keep going?
Speaker 6 (02:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (02:37):
Yeah? Well, And also the other thing, the pitch count thing,
Fred is a pet peeve of mine. Why do we decide?
And who is the one in baseball that decided one
hundred pitches? Is that's it?
Speaker 2 (02:47):
That's the one like why, I mean, that's a different conversation,
but I just every time I see that, I said, well,
you know, one hundred pitches, that's it. You know, in
the old days, guys would throw one hundred and fifty
pitches and whatnot, and you know they didn't have the
arm injuries. But that's a different conversation. But listen, Kershaw
was a little shaky. He was on the ropes. And
I'll tell you what the Dodgers might want to trade
for Austin's later so he doesn't get traded to the
Mets or this guy's a Kershaw killer. This guy Austin's
(03:10):
of all people, Austin's remember when of the Giants all
those years, Like a generic, nondescript journeyman baseball player, and
he his own Kershaw over the years. It's wild, like
just random baseball player for the he's with the White
Sox now obviously last night at home run, but he's
owned Kershaw. But you know, listen, they paused the game.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
They had to.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Did you see they have the hats bread ready to go.
The Kershaw's family had the hats.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
Yeah compaired yeah, oh yeah, And I really thought, Benn,
and I'm glad you're bringing this up. And maybe it's
a little too inside baseball for people, but given what
I'd done for as many years as I have, I'm
a big production guy how things are produced and how
they look. And I thought Sports net LA did a
job that would rival any of the major networks. They
(03:57):
were on that and they had they had a shot
of him standing facing the crowd with the scoreboard in
the background that said three thousand strikeouts. It was like
it was posed. I mean, they just nailed that. They
could not have done a better job of producing that moment,
and somebody needs to mention that because they were great.
(04:20):
I'm not saying everyone isn't great that does this in
the city, but if you watch the Dodger broadcast, here's
something you may not know. I believe because the Dodgers
are doing it basically. I mean they're hiring the people
and everything. I think they have more cameras. The Dodger
broadcasts look like you're watching Fox. That's how good they look.
(04:42):
They are really well produced, really slick, and that moment
was as good a moment as I've seen captured on TV.
So I got to give them a shout out here.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
Yeah, they did. They did a good job. It was
cinema fright.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
It looked like cinema right when you're watching Kershaw with
the scoreboard in the background and all that was like
it was you're shooting a scene in Hollywood like a movie,
and that's you got to have everything perfectly in the
in the frame and all that. Now, they did a
good job, and hey, that's you know, that's the product, right.
You gotta know, most people are not gonna go to
Dodger Stadium. Most people are gonna go listen on the
radio or watch it on TV.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
So you gotta you gotta nail it.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
And they absolutely they absolutely did uh in that respect.
And it's kind of a weird night though, right right
because he got Krushe Everyone was all excited about that
because he got the strikeout, even though he didn't look
that good. And then you got this cloud with Max
Munsey kind of hanging over everyone's head, like what's going
on with that?
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Yeah, we're trying to figure that out and we'll get word,
hopefully sooner rather than later. But now you talk about
television coverage. Okay, So on the Kershaw moment, they nailed
it beautiful, as you said, cinema. Great word, Muncie. They
didn't show any replays. Think about that. Yeah, if you
(05:49):
watch the game, you didn't see a replay, and you
didn't see a replay because it was pretty bad. Now,
was it the worst injury ever suffered? No, it was not.
That doesn't mean it wasn't bad. And they made a
decision not to show the replay because it looked too painful.
What do you think of that, Ben.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
I think it's a terrible decision.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Fred.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
And as much as as you said they nailed the
Kershaw thing, they completely screwed this up.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
We live in the age of social media.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
You can jump on so within two seconds, Fred, I
was watching seven different angles of Max Munsey's need. Not
that I wanted to see it, my rule of thumb.
The only time I really think you shouldn't show it
is we've seen football players whose legs like snap awful.
I don't want to see that. Like, I don't want
to see any part of that. We've seen several players
(06:36):
over the years I've had their legs snapped or their
arm like Joe Feisman back his leg and all.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
That, But I don't want to see it.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
So, but this was bad, But you should have replayed
it for the people that were watching on TV that
didn't have a chance to just jump on their phone
and all that.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
I think they made a mistake doing that.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Because that was the story, right other than kursh On,
that was the story, and that's the kind of story
that's gonna possibly, depending on how this goes, affected Dodgers
for the next couple of months. At least, best case
in it, I think Max can be out for a
while based on what I saw in the video. Not
a doctor Fred as you know, I just do an
overnight radio show, but it does appear that he's going
to be out for some time.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Yeah, it didn't look good. It really didn't look good,
and it looked painful. I always there on the side
of this, even when I worked at Channel four, because
I had to make those decisions. Ben, you know, something happened,
Am I going to show that? And the majority of
time I did, But I would warn people, And honestly,
if I'm watching the game and there's a replay of
(07:33):
something I don't want to see, and I'm not ashamed
to admit it, I just turned my head. I don't
want to see it. But the option is presented to me. Yeah,
I don't want to see it. Some people want to
see it immediately. There are things I don't and I
just turned my head and you move on. We'll talk
more about that coming up in the next segment. As
a matter of fact, will take some calls. And what
would you do if you were the producer of the telecast?
(07:54):
Would just show something like that because it wasn't pretty? Yeah,
or would you just say we're not going to show it.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
Oh, you give a war like you did on TV
for it.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
You give a warning, you look away if you don't
want to see this, but it's gonna be be on
there now. Like I understand why on television they don't
show fans running on the field. I think that's also
dumb because you can also get that and when somebody
runs on the field, I go try to find the
video also, But I understand they don't want to encourage
people to do that. But an injury is a different situation,
Like that's not no one's gonna encourage someone to get hurt.
It's just so it was a fluke thing that happened
(08:25):
where months he happened to be trying to cover the
bass and the guy slid right into him.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
So I mean, that's that's a different situation obviously.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Yeah, I'm sure that if it happened on one of
the major broadcast networks, they would have shown it.
Speaker 7 (08:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
I also think it has something to do with Remember
it's the Dodger network.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
I get that, but you know, you, you know, the
Dodger fans still still deserve to see it. And uh,
you know Mounsie when he was you see him walking
off the field. He couldn't walk, he couldn't put his
weight on it. That was painful to watch him try
to get off the field and he you know, he
was just had the trainer right there, and it was, man,
look like this guy might not walk again. I'm sure
he'll be you know, a couple of months, he'll be
all right.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
But Mike got what was sort of like when Gavin
Lux got hurt a couple of years ago in spring training. Yeah,
and I saw that one time, and I never watched
it again because that looked awful to me. But I
did see it, but I never watched it again because
that looked like it was really bad. And it was
really bad as a matter of fact. Yeah, and pretty
(09:25):
much derailed his career with the Dodgers. He came back,
but then they eventually traded him. So we'll talk about
that coming up. Bill Plaski wrote, and I thought it
was a great piece today and I actually texted him
and I told him it was a great column. He
said that Clayton Kershaw is the greatest picture in Dodger history,
not Sandy Cofax. Now, if you are of a certain generation,
(09:46):
you're like, what in God's name are you talking about?
Speaker 3 (09:49):
Bill?
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Oh, my god, Sandy Kofax is not the greatest picture
in Dodger history. I gotta tell you, Ben, he made
the case. He laid it out and if you really
read what he wrote, and if you've not seen it,
please check it out. Plash ke La times. I think
he's got a point, and that's not being disrespectful to
Sandy Kofax, But I think if you just look at
(10:13):
the pure facts, Clayton Kershaw may be the greatest pitcher
in Dodger history.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
Well, I like Bill, we've out.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
I've known Bill a long time too, and not as
long as you, but I've known him a long time
and I completely disagree. I mean, listen, I don't want
to be you know, mister, you know, raining on the
parade here on the day after Kershaw I got three
thousand strikeouts. But I feel like Bill had that column
written before Kershaw went out last night and pitched. You know,
you just you can't get around what he has done
(10:42):
unfortunately in October, and that's that's going. It's like the
haunted mansion at Disneyland. Fred, It's just gonna the ghosts
are running around there and you can't you can't change that.
And you know, everyone's got their own opinion on who
the greatest dodger. You know, I I was after you.
I didn't watch Kofax.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
He was before me.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
But the stories I've heard about Kofax from people that
are older than me, and by the numbers that he
put up, you say, Cofax is clearly number one. Heck
for me, Fred, I would put oral Hirscheizer at number two,
and I would I would put Fernando number three. I
would put Kurshf like number four. If it was me,
that would be my column. If I was riding a column,
(11:18):
I'd be like, all right, well, Cofax is won Herschei's
are that amazing eighty eight run?
Speaker 3 (11:24):
You know, I'm not going about longevity.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
If you want to do longevity, you know, throw Don
Sutton in there and people like that Kershoff for longevity.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
Sure, yeah, that's what out well.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
But I'm talking about but the great you know, to me,
greatness is not just on longevity. It's about dominance and
in the postseason, because how many over the years we've
seen you know, obviously this is the greatest run in
Dodger history what they're doing right now, but for the
years before that, they'd have good regular season teams and
guys would often go out and ride the vomit common
(11:54):
in the playoffs, wouldn't they wouldn't be able to get done.
So I always value that more. I know it's a
small sam and Bill did point that out that Kofax
only started what eight games because.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
They only have the World Series and so that was it.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
But I know, if it's me, I go, I go Kofax,
Hirsch Eizer for that dominant run. And then to me,
Fernando still is in terms of marketing wise. I think
Fernando's number one in terms of you know, building the
fan base and all that. No one made more of
an impact than he did.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
No, there's no argument about Fernando building the fan base.
But anyway, check it out for yourself. Read Bill's column,
La Times pretty good, pretty uh, pretty thought provoking. And
then as they're going through the game last night, and
again the moment was wonderful, the crowd paid homage. It
was great, it was special, just a special night. It's
you're lucky. You're lucky if you were there. You're lucky
(12:44):
to live in LA You're lucky to be in a
situation where you have so many great players, so many
teams that have done so well over the years. I mean,
the great Showtime Lakers, the Kobe Shack Lakers, the Dodgers.
I mean, you're blessed.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
The Love City Clippers.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Don't forget. Well, here's my problem with the Lob City Clippers.
I'm glad to bring it up. Here's my problem. When
Vinnie Del Negro was the coach of the Lob City Clippers,
they were the most exciting team in the NBA. I
thought they were lights out. They were so much fun
to watch. Doc Rivers came in and said, well, we're
going to change things a little bit, and all of
(13:20):
a sudden, it was like they weren't quite as exciting.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
I don't know why.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
Then I would have Annie Dell Negro because he had
those guys playing and they were a lot of fun
to watch Ben And all of a sudden Doc came
in and I don't know, maybe straightened things out a
little bit, but they just weren't as exciting anymore.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
Well they were.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
They still won a lot of games with Doc Rivers,
but the epic meltdowns and the place you thought about
Kershaw having problems in the pluss. I was at the
game with the Rockets at the old what you used
to call Staples Center back in the day when they
had I think it was a fifteen point lead late
third quarter going to the fourth quarter, and they were
going to move on to the to the next round
of the playoffs, and they lost to the to the Rockets.
And that was the Rockets that didn't even have James Harden.
(14:01):
He didn't even play in the fourth I'm still bitter
about that lop City, the ending of that lob City run.
But that's a that's a different conversation, but that is
again based on the playoffs.
Speaker 3 (14:09):
If you judge them based on the regular season.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
The Clippers even to this, you know, going back to
the beginning of Op City, they are one of the
top five teams in regular season wins in the NBA
since that beginning of Lop City. But you know they
didn't win.
Speaker 3 (14:22):
They've got to the Final four one time. But that's it.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
I hear you, Yeah, I hear you.
Speaker 3 (14:28):
I'm bitter. I'm still better.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Listen. Please, it's pretty understandable and clear.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
Read Plaski's article if you got a chance to read it,
make your own mind up, because I think it is
thought provoking, to say the least. Then Freddie wins it
in the ninth which is great. Clayton and Freddie are
really good friends. As a matter of fact, let's play
some of Clayton's speech to the team inside the clubhouse
after the game.
Speaker 8 (14:54):
You know, individual accomplishments are only that. If you're by yourself,
it doesn't mean anything, right, you don't have anybody to
sell right with. So to have this group around me
to care as much as you did, for Freddy, to
remind me every day how many.
Speaker 9 (15:05):
Strikeouts I have left.
Speaker 8 (15:08):
For everybody just to be so excited for me to
get to do this is that's the biggest thing for me.
Because everybody in this room understands baseball is a hard game,
and nobody understands that better than this room. So I
just want to say thank you guys so much. Everybody,
everybody in here, thank you. It's been a fun ride.
And uh, let's keep it going. Cheers here, cheers hurt.
Speaker 3 (15:28):
Yeah, classic, just class and no no cursing.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Right.
Speaker 3 (15:36):
Album Beep beep?
Speaker 1 (15:39):
Yeah, I know. And it was and it worked because
they won in the bottom of the ninth. I mean,
if they had lost to the White Sox, that that
might have colored the evening a bit.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
You fake a little bit.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
You should have white thirty games under five hunderd the
Chicago White Sox, My god, what a terrible team.
Speaker 3 (15:55):
That is holy and only.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Yeah, you know, it's like you you have been demoted
to the level below major League Baseball. It's like if
you play for the Rockies, you play for the White Sox,
you're really not even a Major League Baseball.
Speaker 3 (16:08):
And they're playing each other this weekend.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
Two Oh my god, Hey, somebody's got to win. That
that somebody's gonna win.
Speaker 3 (16:13):
That's true.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
Good for them for those two teams, for both of them,
that's their best shot, that's their World Series.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
No, it was good though last night as you said, Freddie,
they hit to win it. And it's like the Dodgers
they couldn't.
Speaker 3 (16:26):
Lose to the whites.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
I mean, the white Socks are so bad, right, they
were just kind of toying with the White Sox and
that guy, I don't know, I don't remember the name
of the picture for the White Sox that came in,
but he he looked like he had stage fright. Fred
But you know that, you know, you know, some guys
go into Dodger Stadium and you've been around, You've been
all these balls, Like Dodger Stadium is a different animal.
Then it's so big compared to most of the ballparks,
and some guys go in there and they just they
(16:48):
wet the bed. And he looked like that. I don't
know who the guy was, but he wet the bed.
He was throwing, he couldn't throw a strike, and then
he just blew the game. He gave the game to
the Dodgers. So you like to see that.
Speaker 1 (16:58):
And it's a game the Dodgers will take, all right,
So Dodger fans, let's do this. Let's try to figure
this out. We talked about it. Max Munsey is injured
aslide into third base. The decision was made by Sportsnet LA.
We're not going to show the replay. I think or
even mentioned it's not good.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
Yeah, he said, he said.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
We've made the decision. We're not going to show the replay.
So the question becomes, how do you feel about that?
Would you have shown the replay if you were the
producer of the game and that's who makes the decision,
or as a fan, did you want to see the
replay or would you prefer not to see the replay? Yeah,
(17:41):
it's like six nine eighty seven two five seventy all right,
So now you get to produce a telecast or you
can speak as a fan. Would you want to see
a replay like that? Or are you of the opinion
I don't need to see it? Your calls are next.

Yah, she ran she ran into you, okay, and she
said you were very nice and actually invited her name
was Caitlin and actually invited her down to watch the show.
I don't think she went, but oh yeah, yeah, I
think I remember she was.
Speaker 3 (19:02):
I think I ran into a Dodger stadium.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
Actually back, is that what it was.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
I think it was a Dodger stadium.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
Yeah. And she said you were the building in some
the pulvot right Fox Sports Radio. Yeah yeah, And she
could not say enough good things about you.
Speaker 3 (19:13):

Speaker 1 (19:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (19:36):
It's a small world, right, it's a small world after all.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
And what you understand, Ben, and you're not there yet,
the world gets a lot smaller, is you get a
lot older? Trust me, it just does, it does all right.
So here's the question, Dodger fans. They made a decision
last night not to show what happened to Max Montsey
and a replay they said were not going to do that.
That was their call. If you were producing the cast,
(20:00):
would you have shown it? As a fan, would you
have wanted to see it? Or do you think they
made the right decision? Darren is in SeeMe Valley. Darren,
thank you for holding and you wanted to see it, right.
Speaker 11 (20:14):
Yeah, frend big, big show. Yeah, my foes had have
blown up with all my buddies last night wanting to
see it. They could have shown it with a little
disclaimer that had been fine.
Speaker 1 (20:25):
But overall you thought they should have shown it.
Speaker 11 (20:27):
Absolutely absolutely should have shown it. And and by the
way on the uh the top Dodger pitchers, you guys
are forgetting Drysdale, fo Fax, Drysdale, Sutton, Fernando and Kersh.
No matter what category, those are the top five in
probably different orders depending on the category.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
All right, Darren, thanks for calling. Have a say fourth
of July.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
See, it depends on age. Fred the greatest Dodger pitcher.
Depends on age. Because that guy you can tell you picked,
I went co Fact. I didn't watch go Fax pitch,
but I picked co Fax because of his resume. But
then I went more to me, it was hirsh is
said when I was younger, his dominance, and then Fernando.
But his guy, Darren, he's probably older than me, and
he went with you know, Drysdale and Sutton ahead of
(21:08):
those guys.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
See. That's why I was intrigued by Bill's article because
as he broke it down to me, it it basically
cut through the generations. He just said, no matter how
old you are, here's my case for this. You know
what I mean.
Speaker 3 (21:26):
I just I get I can't get past the playoff.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
He's Picasso in the regular season and then he's playing
with crayons in the play.
Speaker 3 (21:32):
I mean it just sucks. But that's what it's been.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
All right, Let's go Rosa. She's on the fifteen freeway
and Rosa, you're glad they didn't show what happened to
Max Muncy.
Speaker 12 (21:42):
I think it was very respectful for backs anyone that
wants to see it. I'm an old lady. I'll wish
seventy three a little.
Speaker 6 (21:50):
Later this month.
Speaker 1 (21:51):
God bless you.
Speaker 12 (21:52):
This is my and I'm headed to the Dodger game
right now. I think it was very respectful for Max
months see. Anybody that wanted to see it. They pulled
their phone out, they google it. I sit right next
to the Dodger bullpen. My daughter had the phone out
and we had a group of the relievers over watching
it on my daughter's phone. They chose to watch it.
(22:14):
You know, in today's society, it's like the more voriate is,
the more you want.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
To see it.
Speaker 12 (22:20):
I think there's a final line just showing it to everybody,
with or without a disclaimer, and just letting people choose
for themselves. And that's my opinion.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
All right. By the way, you're on the fifteen. Where
are you coming from?
Speaker 12 (22:36):
Okay, I'm now on the sixty. I live in Norco
and this is the Fourieth game I will be headed
to this year.
Speaker 3 (22:44):
Now, what's the plan?
Speaker 2 (22:45):
So it's still early, The game's not till tonight, So
what do you appreciate it?
Speaker 3 (22:49):
What are you doing?
Speaker 6 (22:51):
No?
Speaker 12 (22:51):
No, there are a lot of us that we pay
so much for the Dodger season tickets. They went up
twenty one percent last year they win up. There's rumors
they're going to go up twenty five percent this year.
I'm retired. I'm retired on a teacher's salary, and I
can't afford the twelve hundred and thirteen hundred dollars up
(23:15):
front to pay for the parking. Occasionally, when I bring
somebody with me, I'll buy the party. But there are
places you could park outside the stadium that are not
that horrendous of a walk.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
Spot.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
That's a savvy move right there. Let me tell you
I've done the same thing.
Speaker 3 (23:35):
You know, I'm not. I'm not beyond that. In fact,
I went to I remember fraid I told you so.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
I went to a game with Marlins man. He got
me a ticket, He got me a ticket behind home plate. Well,
I don't have parking anymore because I'm not you know,
the Dodgers press box is full with the Otani media,
so I'm not in there anymore. So I got there
early and I parked down near the Fire Academy. You know,
it's like five dollars or whatever. And I walked up
the hill. It was like ninety five degrees that day.
(24:00):
I walked up the hill into the stadium. I was
covered in sweat by the time I got into the stadium.
Speaker 1 (24:04):
How did it take you to walk up the hill?
Speaker 2 (24:06):
It didn't take that long, but it was I'm a
sweater and it was ninety five degrees and it was horrible,
and so I was so embarrassed. I got there and
I walked into the bathroom. I started trying to drive
myself out because I was covered in sweat. Before I
was hanging out with Marlin's man. They get you know,
my buddy from Miami who was in town. So but
that's a good move. Ros save money. You gotta get
if red.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
In this economy, you got to say, what's yeah?
Speaker 13 (24:30):
Right?
Speaker 1 (24:31):
Thanks North of July.
Speaker 2 (24:32):
Yeah, And when you go to Dodger Stateium and there
are places around there, the savvy veterans nowhere to park.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
Now.
Speaker 2 (24:38):
I used to live and I lived over in Lincoln
Heights for a while, and I could just like walk
from where I live.
Speaker 3 (24:42):
But you down in like Chinatown.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
There you can park. There's some parking down there here
if you get there, if you know where to go.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
The real ones know.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
But here's my question, and that's why I asked, because
I see people park there all the time. Sure, yeah,
how long does it take you to walk into the stadium.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
Well, if you're in good shape, probably that. Look, I'm
in average shape, so it takes me a fair amount
of time. I got a plan for the whole thing.
The worst is those day games when it's really hot.
That's like that is absolutely horrific. But like I told you,
I was sweating. I'm a sweater anyway. Uh But yeah,
I mean there's people sometimes for playoff games I've done
in the past. For playoff games, you can't get there
(25:18):
early enough. There's people there in the morning that are
parked for playoff games. Like I usually get there in
the afternoon. But man, it's insane.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
You can't pregame in your car, right, I mean, you
can't start getting liquored up in your car.
Speaker 3 (25:29):
Well, it depends depends who catches you.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
Fred's legally you probably can't, but you know, if you
choose to, uh you know, if you have tinted windows
in your car, Limo tints, you might be able to
get away with it.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
All right, let's go to LA Al thanks for holding.
Do you think they should have shown it or not?
Speaker 6 (25:46):
Well, a happy poor guys.
Speaker 7 (25:48):
As far as seeing it, I couldn't get sports at LA,
so I had to wash it through the Chicago feeds.
And so I was watching the broadcast from Chicago and
they did show. They showed it about six times from
different angle. It was, uh, yeah, it reminded me a
little bit, not as bad as what happened to a
(26:11):
quarterback from the Redskins. Yeah, with Joe tie, but it
was it was pretty gruesome. You just saw his ne
just to give way, and then with the different angles,
it gave you a completely different perspective from the Chicago
feed and so, I mean, I could see why people
(26:31):
wouldn't see it.
Speaker 6 (26:32):
I saw it.
Speaker 7 (26:33):
I'm kind of glad I saw it because it kind
of gave you an idea of what's gonna happen. And
I don't think Mike Monthy's coming back anytime soon. It's
definitely gonna affect the Dodgers. As far as the tailgating thing,
I will tell you, guys, parking Union Station, the best
place to go. Go to Tracks a bar and say
hello to Johnny the bartender there. He's gonna take care
(26:55):
of you know, literal liquored up before you go, telling
you guys that that's a great thing. Tracks right, trying
Johnny the Bartender.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
All right, July, Hey Frid that guys get free drinks now.
Because you mentioned Johnny the Bartender. He put a little
he puts a little extra in there. Johnny the Bartender,
he'll take care he'll take care of you, a little
extra injury.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
He'll get you ready for Dodger baseball. I'll go up
Chris and La. Chris, you did not want to see it,
is that correct?
Speaker 14 (27:21):
I did want to see, you know, And they were
talking about how gruesome it was, so me and my wife,
I'm sitting there and so I just hit rewind and
went back. And I don't think it was anything like
the Joe thisman uh it's situation. I mean, his need
been back. But I didn't find it gruesome at all.
But the crazy thing is after the game, during their theirs,
their show and they're interviewing Dave Roberts with the split screen,
(27:44):
what do they have on the other screen be playing
the injury three or four times? So it's like you
didn't want to show us when it happened, but now
after the game during the press conference, you're showing it.
And I'm sure it's the same producer. So that was
a little weird. But I didn't think it was all
that gruesome, and I think you should be able to
see it as long as you don't see his leg
(28:04):
breaking apart, which it wasn't. I think it's a little
overkill on their part.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
Thanks Chris.
Speaker 2 (28:10):
I agree with Chris as long as when you see
the bone snap, I don't need to see that. But
as lay on the knee bending back, I'm okay, And
it really is to me, it's a respect thing. Fred, Like,
as you said, when you were doing TV at Channel
four back in the day, you would warn people, So
just like, just put if you don't want to see this,
look away for a second. To me, that that would
have been the way they should have done it. On
the broadcast last night, all.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
Right in Santa Clarita, Tony is on the line, and
Tony did not want it shown right, Tony.
Speaker 15 (28:37):
Yeah, they just show it one more time to see
if the runner is safer out on the stolen base.
And that's it. But this Bill Plashki, is he actually
from Los Angeles? If it wasn't for Coofax and Nukeom
and Drysdale, the Dodges would have been irrelevant in the sixties.
All they had was Maury Wills and pitchers. And until
Tommy Lasorda came in with his offense, the well thrust
and sucked. And if if it wasn't for Tommy Losorda's
(29:01):
offense in Sutton and Valenzuela and Herscheizer, the Dodgers would
have been irrelevant. And and Kershaw is lucky that Tommy
Losorda was never his manager. He would have done to
him what he did the need in fear and forced.
He remember what he said about those guys when they choked.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
Okay, how do you really feel, Tony? Don't hold back, Tony,
don't hold back, my ma.
Speaker 13 (29:23):
I mean.
Speaker 1 (29:26):
Taking a shot at everybody, all right? Freddy's in Lejabra, Freddie,
you wanted to see what happened, right.
Speaker 6 (29:34):
Yes, I wanted to see what happened. But I want
to say something before that. David vassay, he needs to
quick kissing the player's butts as he does all the time.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
You know, white David getting shot at here.
Speaker 3 (29:45):
You let him, let him, let the man speak, Let
the man speak.
Speaker 6 (29:49):
The same Kershaw, two times World Series champion. We all
know if Kershaw was healthy and pitching in the last
World Series that the Dodgers won, you know, instead of
having a bull full of pin games, they would have
had a Kershaw game and they would have lost twelve
to one.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
Okay, right, Freddy, Freddy, Freddy, wait, I like.
Speaker 3 (30:10):
This guy, Freddy. I like this guy. I understand. I
like bitter Freddy. I like this guy.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
Historical moment last night. Three thousand strikeouts and you're telling
us if he had pitched in the World Series the
Dodgers would have lost, Freddie, can't we take a moment.
Speaker 6 (30:26):
Too, I mean, just look at the first innings. I mean,
I didn't think he was going to get three strikeouts.
It was a miracle. And even that pitch, that final
pitch was outside by about four inches, but the unch
just gave it to him so they could he could,
you know, get it.
Speaker 3 (30:41):
Freddy, fred I think when you're saying Freddy, thank you.
Speaker 2 (30:45):
It was like a playoff environment last night, and Clayton
had some issues.
Speaker 3 (30:50):
You know, there was a kind of a playoff environment.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
There was a lot of buzz in the ballpark, right,
there's some energy there, big moment everyone was anticipating, and
he had some issues he did.
Speaker 6 (30:58):
That's a fair points, he said. I loved.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
Let him go. Let him go, Hi, Freddy.
Speaker 4 (31:07):
Course, Ben loves Hi because he took shots atass A,
So that's right.
Speaker 3 (31:11):
Let that guy. Let the man speak.
Speaker 5 (31:12):
By the way, vass A doesn't need us to defend him.
But I think it's unfair to say that he kisses
the players butts. I think it's quite the opposite. Anybody
that listens to Dave knows that that's not true. I
don't know about that when he ripped it Tanner Scott
for an entire postgame show from not talking to the media.
Speaker 4 (31:26):
That was a month ago.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
I I just want to understand why out a day
the day after Clayton Kershaw that's the three thousand strikeouts.
We can all agree that's a milestone.
Speaker 3 (31:37):
It's big.
Speaker 1 (31:38):
Freddy comes in here, both barrels loaded.
Speaker 9 (31:41):
No.
Speaker 3 (31:41):
I love that. That's sports radio and its greatest right there.
That's sports talk radio right there.
Speaker 5 (31:47):
Freddy's love that the Dodgers didn't sweep the Yankees in
the World Series. He's pissed off about that. He's like,
why take you five games that he was roll with
your bumps?
Speaker 3 (31:54):
He lost, He lost the bet on the one day.
That's what it is.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
All right, Let's see what Charlie has to say. Charlie,
come in here. Now, what do you.
Speaker 13 (32:01):
Think Charlie's going to try to get this back on
the rails? About last night? I'm glad they didn't show it.
This was a historic night for kersh Baseball's America's game.
We're supposed to be happy, it's supposed to be relaxing.
We watch it for the baseball. If I want to
watch people's bones and things get destroyed, I'll watch MMA,
(32:26):
or I'll watch hockey, but not in my baseball game.
Speaker 1 (32:31):
All right, there you go.
Speaker 3 (32:33):
Ye again, I disagree, fred.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
I think you've got the people that invest time to
watch these games on TV.
Speaker 3 (32:39):
You've got to show them the whole thing.
Speaker 2 (32:41):
You're going to show them the drama, right, You're going
to show them the good stuff, but you also have
to show nobody wanted that to happen to Max Munsey, Right,
but you can't. You can't just pretend it didn't happen, right.
You know, it's not a privacy issue. There's no hippo
violation that took place or anything like that. It was
it was uncomfortable, it was real, it happened. It was
a thin and it's part of the story. So I again,
(33:02):
I think they should have shown it, but he obviously disagrees.
Speaker 1 (33:05):
All right, let's wrap it up now with Anthony and
the LBC. Anthony, what do you think?
Speaker 9 (33:12):
Yeah, how's it going?
Speaker 12 (33:13):
Brother?
Speaker 9 (33:13):
Yeah, I think that they should should have shown it.
To be honest with you, always as a game, and
I was trying to look at it just for the
severity of it.
Speaker 3 (33:22):
I wanted to.
Speaker 11 (33:23):
See how bad it was.
Speaker 9 (33:24):
I care about the guy, and you know, I'm a
big Dodger fan, So it was mostly just because of
that reason.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
All right, Anthony, appreciate it. Thank you for listening to
the station.
Speaker 5 (33:34):
By the way, I think Vassie might be listening right now.
He said, ask Ben what I call a two or
zero pitch? Do you know what that means?
Speaker 13 (33:40):
Ben?
Speaker 2 (33:42):
I know what a caller said on my show last night,
But I can't repeat during the day.
Speaker 1 (33:47):
I can't.
Speaker 5 (33:48):
He also asked if you're going to plug your big
meet and greet in Arkansas anytime soon.
Speaker 3 (33:52):
Well, if anybody in Arkansas knew who Vassy was, he
could go there. But unfortunately nobody knows who he is
in Arkansas.
Speaker 1 (33:58):
So yeah, is that a good getting or a bad
thing that nobody knows about her?
Speaker 2 (34:02):
You get again, vass A, fred disrespecting the hard working
people the overnight shift. It's not he's he's does he
understand fred the Mallard Militia, the group that I have
at night here, they will form Voltron late at night.
Speaker 3 (34:15):
You know when I'm messed with the Mallard Militia. You
don't do that. He's playing with fire here, That's what
I'm saying with vass here. I don't know he's doing that.
Speaker 2 (34:22):
Listen, David, make sure that Blake Snell gets his lunch. Okay,
it's about lunchtime. Make sure he gets his lunch and
leave us alone.
Speaker 1 (34:27):
Okay, come on, Oh god, I don't know why Freddy
had to call and start all this.
Speaker 2 (34:32):
I love Freddy. That was my favorite call. That's the
greatest call you've taken, fred since I've been with you.
Speaker 3 (34:36):
I love it.
Speaker 1 (34:38):
Here for this he starts just a war, a war.
Speaker 3 (34:42):
I love it. Freddy holds a grudge. I like that man.
He just holds a grudge. That's my kind of caller.
Speaker 1 (34:46):
Right there by the way, Ned COLLETI will be on
the show at two o'clock today. We'll get more into
that Tonight. The Dodgers take on the White Sox at

Speaker 1 (35:29):
All right. Today's throwback Thursday edition of Afternoon Delight is
California Girls by Katy Perry.
Speaker 3 (35:36):
You like this, Ben, Yeah, I still listen back in
the day.
Speaker 13 (35:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (35:41):
Good song.
Speaker 1 (35:41):
So the song is the lead single off the Pop
Singers twenty ten album titled Teenage Dream.
Speaker 2 (35:47):
Is eight fifteen Years fifteen Years Home Chah Wow.
Speaker 1 (35:51):
Yeah. It was number one of the Billboard Hot one
hundred for six consecutive weeks span the months of June
and July last year or that year, i should say,
and featured rap legend Snoop Dogg. In an interview, Perry
said that this song was made in response to the
Alicia Keys and Jay Z hit song Empire State of Mind.
She said she was jealous of the love that the
East Coast was receiving. She wanted to make sure people
(36:14):
don't forget about the West Coast again. Today's Throwback Thursday
edition of Afternoon Delight is California Girls by Katie Perry
featuring Snoop Dogg. Okay, this is big news. Big news
if you have kids and you are from southern California.
I am guessing at one point or another you had
(36:36):
been to Chuck E Cheese. Now, the thing about Chuck
E Cheese, the kids are just having the best time.
They have the giant rat that walks around. You can
have birthday parties as well, but with all due respect
and please, I hope the people Chuck E Cheese don't
take this the wrong way. The pizza tastes like cardboard, right,
they do. I think sell beer and wine. And if
(36:59):
you take your kids there, trust me, you're gonna need it.
You're going to need the beer and wine you go
with it. Yeah, so big news. Big news now for
those of you who have had little kids and they've
grown and they're not ready for Chuck E Cheese anymore. Now,
Chuck E Cheese is opening a spot for you. What
(37:22):
they're doing is creating Chuck's Arcade, a modern day love
letter to the games and people who made Chuck E
Cheese great. So Chuck E Cheese is not for adults.
And they're going to open these at malls across the
United States. They will serve food, some of that great pizza,
small selection of beer and wine, I am told, and
(37:44):
they're going to have old arcade games in there, kind
of like the games that you grew up with, So
there would be pong things like that in the Chuck
E Cheese.
Speaker 3 (37:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (37:58):
So from my marketing standpoint, my first thought fredd Is.
This is brilliant, right, because it's a nostalgia market. I
hope they have the scent. You know when I when
I would go into Chuck E Cheese, you smell that
old carpet that has had foods, you know, spilled on it.
And you can smell the pizza grease when you walk
in there and all and uh. And they got to
have ski ball if you that's a must. Chuck E Cheese.
Speaker 3 (38:18):
And a claw machine.
Speaker 2 (38:20):
You cannot win an impossible claw If they have those
two things, that's all you need. It's nostalgia night. And
I think they opened the first one of these in
Orange County. I think I think I heard some about it,
like the first one, the test version of this was
in in the OC.
Speaker 3 (38:34):
So it's a time capsule, right, flashback claw machine.
Speaker 1 (38:39):
That's my problem now when you think about it, when
do you ever win with the claw machine?
Speaker 2 (38:44):
And if if you win, you got to spend like
hundreds of dollars to win. Like I know, I've been
to Dave and Busters with the wife. We've gone out
there and we've seen people win and then you go
up to him You're like, well, how long have you
been playing the claw machine. Oh but two hours. You know,
it's like, well why not just go buy the item?
You know, you better off just going to the store
and buying the eye, or you're buying it on Amazon
(39:05):
or whatever.
Speaker 3 (39:05):
What are you doing now?
Speaker 4 (39:06):
The call machine is like the ring toss that a fair.
Oh they have it in for you. You already know
you can't win the car.
Speaker 1 (39:12):
I think that's so wrong. Look when you go to
those little fairs, and I've told the story about when
I met ce Lo or Jojo the dog Face woman.
You know, you you meet the little characters and things
and they have the little side shows. But it's like
you want to win and you just can't. And it's
very frustrating to me, very frustrating. Well, you mean, if
(39:34):
you ever want anything big at those carnivals.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
Well you get close enough where you think you're about
to win, that's where they get you. I got you
by the balls, right because they're like, oh, yeah, you're
about to win, So I'll play one more time or
two more times, and I'm gonna win. And then I
won one time when I was a kid with it.
It was an underhand softball toss into a wooden basket
and you had to get like a couple.
Speaker 3 (39:56):
It was from a far distance.
Speaker 2 (39:57):
I want I want a big stuffed animal as a kid,
And ever since that I've been trying to recreate that,
I've not won anything.
Speaker 3 (40:04):
So here's the key.
Speaker 1 (40:05):
Because you know that that basket has a spring in
the back, right, so you've got a lobb it and
they have to hit the basket and just roll back
gently enough where it doesn't pop out, right, isn't that
how you do it?
Speaker 3 (40:17):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (40:17):
There are some YouTube videos that show you cheat codes
and how to win the games, but even if you
know what you need to do, it's still near impossible
unless you have just nothing but free time to practice
those moves.
Speaker 1 (40:31):
There are code wait, there's YouTube cheap code videos.
Speaker 2 (40:34):
Yeah, there are people that will tell you how to
win the Carnie games, like because you know the La
County Fair, the Orange County Fair, all these things coming up,
you can you can watch and study those videos.
Speaker 3 (40:43):
They'll tell you here's how they rig the game, here's
how you can beat it.
Speaker 1 (40:46):
Kevin, Kevin, can you find one of those.
Speaker 4 (40:49):
I'll effort that for it.
Speaker 3 (40:51):
He's efforting right now.
Speaker 1 (40:51):
Okay, that means he doesn't really want to do it.
You don't do the show enough Ben to know that
means I don't want to do that. You know that
really means Fred, that idea sucks.
Speaker 5 (41:00):
That's a bad radio and fairness, Fred, if your idea sucks,
I'll tell you.
Speaker 4 (41:05):
I'll say it on the air. I've said it before.
Speaker 3 (41:07):
Do that so that spread your idea sucks.
Speaker 5 (41:10):
See, I said, you're clear now, Kevin, I have no
promise it.
Speaker 4 (41:13):
I don't either, which is why I said, our effort.
Speaker 1 (41:15):
Just see and if there's one that's interesting and the
guy who really explained something, let's run a little of it,
because I think that'll be like a public service. As
we going to the fourth of July.
Speaker 2 (41:23):
It's a great idea because this you know, the summer
seasons here right fourth of July, and go out when
you know you see you go to the La County
Fair and I see people walking around with giant stuffed animals,
and I my thought is always not boy, they're good
at the games, it's how much did they spend to
get the stuffed animal? That's always my thought when I
see it. Now, this chucky cheese thing, though, Fred, I
feel like I don't deserve to be I know, and
Roddy's obvious way. But Jonas Knox is a former Chucky
(41:45):
Cheese who fills in here. He has he Yeah, he
has insider information, but I didn't. I went to Chucky
Cheese when I was younger, but I didn't. I didn't
work at Chucky Cheese. I don't have inside information like that.
Speaker 9 (41:55):
No.
Speaker 1 (41:56):
Well, and next week Jonahs will be back. I think
we're gonna ask him about it. Okay, but you know
what about the fair? I'm gonna give everybody a tip.
You want to know the game that you can win
if you go to the little Carnival or the little fair. Yeah,
it's the game with the horses where you roll a
ball and depending on what hole it goes in, the
horse moves that many steps or that many lengths.
Speaker 3 (42:18):
The race.
Speaker 1 (42:18):
Yeah, yeah, the race. That's the game you can win.
That is the game you can win. How do you win?
Keep the ball moving, keep it moving quickly, Yeah, and
try to bank it and always get it in that
top hole so it'll go three each time. That's your key,
that's your tip. So you don't have to look that
one up, Kevin, I already know how to do that one.
Speaker 2 (42:38):
Yeah, what about the one where you have the water
gun and you have to fill the balloon up by shooting.
Speaker 3 (42:45):
Have you seen that one?
Speaker 2 (42:45):
When you shoot the water you gotta hit them right
in the mouth, in the mouth, right, yeah, yeah, right, yeah,
yeah yeah.
Speaker 1 (42:50):
And I think I see, I think I get screwed
on that. I think I do a pretty good job,
but I don't win.
Speaker 2 (42:55):
You have good aim, you're like a like a Navy
seal sniper with your water gun, you know.
Speaker 1 (43:00):
But here's the thing about that. From the minute it starts,
you got to nail it. If you're just off a
little bit at the beginning, you lose. So you just
have to that first shot. It's got to be right
on target, and then just hold it there, hold it
if you're off. I'm telling you, if you're off just
the slightest bit with the first shot, you lose.
Speaker 3 (43:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (43:18):
And then you come back and you think, you know,
I'm just off a little bit. I'll put another buck down.
Let's go again. Now you're down twenty bucks. Yeah, and
you have like a caterpillar before. That's what you want
so far.
Speaker 5 (43:28):
So I did find one. The visual would help, but
I think it's okay. It's still passable for us. To
play on radio if I can just set it up
a little bit.
Speaker 1 (43:36):
So they're like, you want to do it next hour?
Speaker 4 (43:38):
You want to wait till next hour.
Speaker 2 (43:39):
That's fine, that's seizing ahead for it. You got to
tease ahead to Okay, we'll play next hour. But I
want you to give an update real quick before I forget.
So my guys, my overnight guys are listening to the
show and they want to go to battle with fast A.
Speaker 3 (43:53):
They are prepared, they are.
Speaker 2 (43:55):
In fact, Terry is listening over in England and he
wants me to unleash the hounds. The Malor militia is
locked and loaded.
Speaker 3 (44:01):
He said.
Speaker 1 (44:01):
I cannot allow ben. I cannot allow the Malor militia
to come on the air and start attacking David vass
I will not do it.
Speaker 5 (44:10):
If they want to attack Vassa, they can attack in
themselves on Dodger Talk tonight after the Dodger game, after
they played the White Sox. You guys can have the
militia go after vass A on Dodger Talk.
Speaker 2 (44:22):
There you go call him up, Alf and you guys
that are listening, So just save.
Speaker 3 (44:27):
Or my show at night. But yeah, will this would
be a safe space for it is that what.
Speaker 1 (44:31):
This is, this is it's going to be a safe
space today. Okay, I'm not putting David Vass up against
the wall facing a firing squad where he's not here
to defend himself. I won't do it.
Speaker 2 (44:41):
Yeah, he'll have he'll have a bunch of Dodger guys
defending him, so he'll be all right with bats.
Speaker 1 (44:47):
So the big news, of course, Kevin has found the
cheat code for the Carnival game, and we'll do that
next hour. But first we'll talk about the Carnival that
is the Lakers and Dan Wyke. You will join us
All right, here we go. The day before fourth of July,
Fred Rogan and Ben Maller in today for Rodney on
a five to seventy l A Sports. How you doing, Ben,
I am.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Great, I'm fired up. I fives said there'd be no
pause in the game last night.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
They didn't.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
They pause after Kershaws at the record told me there
was gonna be no pause.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
No, No, here's what he says. I think I think
that if it happened at the end of an inning,
it could be different.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
Did he put a qualifier on? I thought he said
they weren't gonna pause the game.
Speaker 4 (00:29):
Now you're you're right?
Speaker 5 (00:29):
For Fred's right, Ben, Yet, as he said, if if
he breaks the record and it's one strike or something
like that, he doesn't want the game to be stopped.
But if that's at the end of an inning, then
he'll stop and do the pomping circumstance, which is exactly.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
What I don't know about say though that information. But yeah,
it was a good night last night. A lot of pi.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
I mean, cursh I didn't look great, Fred, but you know,
the pomp and circumstance was nice.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
I gotta tell you, is that thing was going on
and Dave Roberts had said before the game, he's gonna
manage this one a little differently, so in other words,
he's gonna let him get it. He got it on
his one hundredth pitch, but that was going on, I'm thinking,
oh my god, he's three strikeouts away and he's not
going to get it tonight. Oh no, I really thought that.
I thought, I know, the third eting it would be done.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
And it looked like he wasn't gonna get it.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
It looked like, you know, the White Sox, they're one
of the worst teams in baseball.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
I mean he was.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
He was scuffling Kershaw against the White Sox last night.
But yeah, and how awkward do you think it was
in the dugout Fred For Dave, who loves to pull
pitchers early, when Kershaw's going over eighty pitches and over
ninety pitches, Yeah, his his mind must have been like,
oh my god, I got to take him out. But
he had to leave him in. You know, it's like that.
That's a night normally Kirshaw would have been out what
(01:38):
twenty pitches earlier at least night.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
Yeah, absolutely no, he said before the game, I'll manage
this went a little differently. But as it was going
on and you were seeing that he wasn't really sharp,
and I thought the White Sox took this approach. I'll
be damned if you're gonna strike me out. So if
you do, I'm going down swinging. Those guys came up
at the beginning and they were just anything close. They
(02:02):
were swinging out to try to hit the ball. They
were not going to be that guy, and they didn't
want to be that team. And he didn't look crisp
early on. So as you're sitting there watching thinking to yourself,
oh god, oh my god, could this actually happen? Might
he not get it tonight? But then when he got
to two, you figured, okay, and he got to one
(02:27):
hundred or he got his third strike on it, his
hundredth pitch. What if he hadn't gotten at that inning?
I mean, what do you have let him go on one
hundred and twenty pitches to get it? Just keep going?
Speaker 6 (02:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (02:37):
Yeah? Well, And also the other thing, the pitch count thing,
Fred is a pet peeve of mine. Why do we decide?
And who is the one in baseball that decided one
hundred pitches? Is that's it?
Speaker 2 (02:47):
That's the one like why, I mean, that's a different conversation,
but I just every time I see that, I said, well,
you know, one hundred pitches, that's it. You know, in
the old days, guys would throw one hundred and fifty
pitches and whatnot, and you know they didn't have the
arm injuries. But that's a different conversation. But listen, Kershaw
was a little shaky. He was on the ropes. And
I'll tell you what the Dodgers might want to trade
for Austin's later so he doesn't get traded to the
Mets or this guy's a Kershaw killer. This guy Austin's
(03:10):
of all people, Austin's remember when of the Giants all
those years, Like a generic, nondescript journeyman baseball player, and
he his own Kershaw over the years. It's wild, like
just random baseball player for the he's with the White
Sox now obviously last night at home run, but he's
owned Kershaw. But you know, listen, they paused the game.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
They had to.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Did you see they have the hats bread ready to go.
The Kershaw's family had the hats.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
Yeah compaired yeah, oh yeah, And I really thought, Benn,
and I'm glad you're bringing this up. And maybe it's
a little too inside baseball for people, but given what
I'd done for as many years as I have, I'm
a big production guy how things are produced and how
they look. And I thought Sports net LA did a
job that would rival any of the major networks. They
(03:57):
were on that and they had they had a shot
of him standing facing the crowd with the scoreboard in
the background that said three thousand strikeouts. It was like
it was posed. I mean, they just nailed that. They
could not have done a better job of producing that moment,
and somebody needs to mention that because they were great.
(04:20):
I'm not saying everyone isn't great that does this in
the city, but if you watch the Dodger broadcast, here's
something you may not know. I believe because the Dodgers
are doing it basically. I mean they're hiring the people
and everything. I think they have more cameras. The Dodger
broadcasts look like you're watching Fox. That's how good they look.
(04:42):
They are really well produced, really slick, and that moment
was as good a moment as I've seen captured on TV.
So I got to give them a shout out here.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
Yeah, they did. They did a good job. It was
cinema fright.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
It looked like cinema right when you're watching Kershaw with
the scoreboard in the background and all that was like
it was you're shooting a scene in Hollywood like a movie,
and that's you got to have everything perfectly in the
in the frame and all that. Now, they did a
good job, and hey, that's you know, that's the product, right.
You gotta know, most people are not gonna go to
Dodger Stadium. Most people are gonna go listen on the
radio or watch it on TV.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
So you gotta you gotta nail it.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
And they absolutely they absolutely did uh in that respect.
And it's kind of a weird night though, right right
because he got Krushe Everyone was all excited about that
because he got the strikeout, even though he didn't look
that good. And then you got this cloud with Max
Munsey kind of hanging over everyone's head, like what's going
on with that?
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Yeah, we're trying to figure that out and we'll get word,
hopefully sooner rather than later. But now you talk about
television coverage. Okay, So on the Kershaw moment, they nailed
it beautiful, as you said, cinema. Great word, Muncie. They
didn't show any replays. Think about that. Yeah, if you
(05:49):
watch the game, you didn't see a replay, and you
didn't see a replay because it was pretty bad. Now,
was it the worst injury ever suffered? No, it was not.
That doesn't mean it wasn't bad. And they made a
decision not to show the replay because it looked too painful.
What do you think of that, Ben.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
I think it's a terrible decision.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Fred.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
And as much as as you said they nailed the
Kershaw thing, they completely screwed this up.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
We live in the age of social media.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
You can jump on so within two seconds, Fred, I
was watching seven different angles of Max Munsey's need. Not
that I wanted to see it, my rule of thumb.
The only time I really think you shouldn't show it
is we've seen football players whose legs like snap awful.
I don't want to see that. Like, I don't want
to see any part of that. We've seen several players
(06:36):
over the years I've had their legs snapped or their
arm like Joe Feisman back his leg and all.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
That, But I don't want to see it.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
So, but this was bad, But you should have replayed
it for the people that were watching on TV that
didn't have a chance to just jump on their phone
and all that.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
I think they made a mistake doing that.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Because that was the story, right other than kursh On,
that was the story, and that's the kind of story
that's gonna possibly, depending on how this goes, affected Dodgers
for the next couple of months. At least, best case
in it, I think Max can be out for a
while based on what I saw in the video. Not
a doctor Fred as you know, I just do an
overnight radio show, but it does appear that he's going
to be out for some time.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Yeah, it didn't look good. It really didn't look good,
and it looked painful. I always there on the side
of this, even when I worked at Channel four, because
I had to make those decisions. Ben, you know, something happened,
Am I going to show that? And the majority of
time I did, But I would warn people, And honestly,
if I'm watching the game and there's a replay of
(07:33):
something I don't want to see, and I'm not ashamed
to admit it, I just turned my head. I don't
want to see it. But the option is presented to me. Yeah,
I don't want to see it. Some people want to
see it immediately. There are things I don't and I
just turned my head and you move on. We'll talk
more about that coming up in the next segment. As
a matter of fact, will take some calls. And what
would you do if you were the producer of the telecast?
(07:54):
Would just show something like that because it wasn't pretty? Yeah,
or would you just say we're not going to show it.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
Oh, you give a war like you did on TV
for it.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
You give a warning, you look away if you don't
want to see this, but it's gonna be be on
there now. Like I understand why on television they don't
show fans running on the field. I think that's also
dumb because you can also get that and when somebody
runs on the field, I go try to find the
video also, But I understand they don't want to encourage
people to do that. But an injury is a different situation,
Like that's not no one's gonna encourage someone to get hurt.
It's just so it was a fluke thing that happened
(08:25):
where months he happened to be trying to cover the
bass and the guy slid right into him.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
So I mean, that's that's a different situation obviously.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Yeah, I'm sure that if it happened on one of
the major broadcast networks, they would have shown it.
Speaker 7 (08:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
I also think it has something to do with Remember
it's the Dodger network.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
I get that, but you know, you, you know, the
Dodger fans still still deserve to see it. And uh,
you know Mounsie when he was you see him walking
off the field. He couldn't walk, he couldn't put his
weight on it. That was painful to watch him try
to get off the field and he you know, he
was just had the trainer right there, and it was, man,
look like this guy might not walk again. I'm sure
he'll be you know, a couple of months, he'll be
all right.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
But Mike got what was sort of like when Gavin
Lux got hurt a couple of years ago in spring training. Yeah,
and I saw that one time, and I never watched
it again because that looked awful to me. But I
did see it, but I never watched it again because
that looked like it was really bad. And it was
really bad as a matter of fact. Yeah, and pretty
(09:25):
much derailed his career with the Dodgers. He came back,
but then they eventually traded him. So we'll talk about
that coming up. Bill Plaski wrote, and I thought it
was a great piece today and I actually texted him
and I told him it was a great column. He
said that Clayton Kershaw is the greatest picture in Dodger history,
not Sandy Cofax. Now, if you are of a certain generation,
(09:46):
you're like, what in God's name are you talking about?
Speaker 3 (09:49):
Bill?
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Oh, my god, Sandy Kofax is not the greatest picture
in Dodger history. I gotta tell you, Ben, he made
the case. He laid it out and if you really
read what he wrote, and if you've not seen it,
please check it out. Plash ke La times. I think
he's got a point, and that's not being disrespectful to
Sandy Kofax, But I think if you just look at
(10:13):
the pure facts, Clayton Kershaw may be the greatest pitcher
in Dodger history.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
Well, I like Bill, we've out.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
I've known Bill a long time too, and not as
long as you, but I've known him a long time
and I completely disagree. I mean, listen, I don't want
to be you know, mister, you know, raining on the
parade here on the day after Kershaw I got three
thousand strikeouts. But I feel like Bill had that column
written before Kershaw went out last night and pitched. You know,
you just you can't get around what he has done
(10:42):
unfortunately in October, and that's that's going. It's like the
haunted mansion at Disneyland. Fred, It's just gonna the ghosts
are running around there and you can't you can't change that.
And you know, everyone's got their own opinion on who
the greatest dodger. You know, I I was after you.
I didn't watch Kofax.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
He was before me.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
But the stories I've heard about Kofax from people that
are older than me, and by the numbers that he
put up, you say, Cofax is clearly number one. Heck
for me, Fred, I would put oral Hirscheizer at number two,
and I would I would put Fernando number three. I
would put Kurshf like number four. If it was me,
that would be my column. If I was riding a column,
(11:18):
I'd be like, all right, well, Cofax is won Herschei's
are that amazing eighty eight run?
Speaker 3 (11:24):
You know, I'm not going about longevity.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
If you want to do longevity, you know, throw Don
Sutton in there and people like that Kershoff for longevity.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
Sure, yeah, that's what out well.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
But I'm talking about but the great you know, to me,
greatness is not just on longevity. It's about dominance and
in the postseason, because how many over the years we've
seen you know, obviously this is the greatest run in
Dodger history what they're doing right now, but for the
years before that, they'd have good regular season teams and
guys would often go out and ride the vomit common
(11:54):
in the playoffs, wouldn't they wouldn't be able to get done.
So I always value that more. I know it's a
small sam and Bill did point that out that Kofax
only started what eight games because.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
They only have the World Series and so that was it.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
But I know, if it's me, I go, I go Kofax,
Hirsch Eizer for that dominant run. And then to me,
Fernando still is in terms of marketing wise. I think
Fernando's number one in terms of you know, building the
fan base and all that. No one made more of
an impact than he did.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
No, there's no argument about Fernando building the fan base.
But anyway, check it out for yourself. Read Bill's column,
La Times pretty good, pretty uh, pretty thought provoking. And
then as they're going through the game last night, and
again the moment was wonderful, the crowd paid homage. It
was great, it was special, just a special night. It's
you're lucky. You're lucky if you were there. You're lucky
(12:44):
to live in LA You're lucky to be in a
situation where you have so many great players, so many
teams that have done so well over the years. I mean,
the great Showtime Lakers, the Kobe Shack Lakers, the Dodgers.
I mean, you're blessed.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
The Love City Clippers.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Don't forget. Well, here's my problem with the Lob City Clippers.
I'm glad to bring it up. Here's my problem. When
Vinnie Del Negro was the coach of the Lob City Clippers,
they were the most exciting team in the NBA. I
thought they were lights out. They were so much fun
to watch. Doc Rivers came in and said, well, we're
going to change things a little bit, and all of
(13:20):
a sudden, it was like they weren't quite as exciting.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
I don't know why.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
Then I would have Annie Dell Negro because he had
those guys playing and they were a lot of fun
to watch Ben And all of a sudden Doc came
in and I don't know, maybe straightened things out a
little bit, but they just weren't as exciting anymore.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
Well they were.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
They still won a lot of games with Doc Rivers,
but the epic meltdowns and the place you thought about
Kershaw having problems in the pluss. I was at the
game with the Rockets at the old what you used
to call Staples Center back in the day when they
had I think it was a fifteen point lead late
third quarter going to the fourth quarter, and they were
going to move on to the to the next round
of the playoffs, and they lost to the to the Rockets.
And that was the Rockets that didn't even have James Harden.
(14:01):
He didn't even play in the fourth I'm still bitter
about that lop City, the ending of that lob City run.
But that's a that's a different conversation, but that is
again based on the playoffs.
Speaker 3 (14:09):
If you judge them based on the regular season.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
The Clippers even to this, you know, going back to
the beginning of Op City, they are one of the
top five teams in regular season wins in the NBA
since that beginning of Lop City. But you know they
didn't win.
Speaker 3 (14:22):
They've got to the Final four one time. But that's it.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
I hear you, Yeah, I hear you.
Speaker 3 (14:28):
I'm bitter. I'm still better.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Listen. Please, it's pretty understandable and clear.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
Read Plaski's article if you got a chance to read it,
make your own mind up, because I think it is
thought provoking, to say the least. Then Freddie wins it
in the ninth which is great. Clayton and Freddie are
really good friends. As a matter of fact, let's play
some of Clayton's speech to the team inside the clubhouse
after the game.
Speaker 8 (14:54):
You know, individual accomplishments are only that. If you're by yourself,
it doesn't mean anything, right, you don't have anybody to
sell right with. So to have this group around me
to care as much as you did, for Freddy, to
remind me every day how many.
Speaker 9 (15:05):
Strikeouts I have left.
Speaker 8 (15:08):
For everybody just to be so excited for me to
get to do this is that's the biggest thing for me.
Because everybody in this room understands baseball is a hard game,
and nobody understands that better than this room. So I
just want to say thank you guys so much. Everybody,
everybody in here, thank you. It's been a fun ride.
And uh, let's keep it going. Cheers here, cheers hurt.
Speaker 3 (15:28):
Yeah, classic, just class and no no cursing.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Right.
Speaker 3 (15:36):
Album Beep beep?
Speaker 1 (15:39):
Yeah, I know. And it was and it worked because
they won in the bottom of the ninth. I mean,
if they had lost to the White Sox, that that
might have colored the evening a bit.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
You fake a little bit.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
You should have white thirty games under five hunderd the
Chicago White Sox, My god, what a terrible team.
Speaker 3 (15:55):
That is holy and only.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Yeah, you know, it's like you you have been demoted
to the level below major League Baseball. It's like if
you play for the Rockies, you play for the White Sox,
you're really not even a Major League Baseball.
Speaker 3 (16:08):
And they're playing each other this weekend.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
Two Oh my god, Hey, somebody's got to win. That
that somebody's gonna win.
Speaker 3 (16:13):
That's true.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
Good for them for those two teams, for both of them,
that's their best shot, that's their World Series.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
No, it was good though last night as you said, Freddie,
they hit to win it. And it's like the Dodgers
they couldn't.
Speaker 3 (16:26):
Lose to the whites.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
I mean, the white Socks are so bad, right, they
were just kind of toying with the White Sox and
that guy, I don't know, I don't remember the name
of the picture for the White Sox that came in,
but he he looked like he had stage fright. Fred
But you know that, you know, you know, some guys
go into Dodger Stadium and you've been around, You've been
all these balls, Like Dodger Stadium is a different animal.
Then it's so big compared to most of the ballparks,
and some guys go in there and they just they
(16:48):
wet the bed. And he looked like that. I don't
know who the guy was, but he wet the bed.
He was throwing, he couldn't throw a strike, and then
he just blew the game. He gave the game to
the Dodgers. So you like to see that.
Speaker 1 (16:58):
And it's a game the Dodgers will take, all right,
So Dodger fans, let's do this. Let's try to figure
this out. We talked about it. Max Munsey is injured
aslide into third base. The decision was made by Sportsnet LA.
We're not going to show the replay. I think or
even mentioned it's not good.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
Yeah, he said, he said.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
We've made the decision. We're not going to show the replay.
So the question becomes, how do you feel about that?
Would you have shown the replay if you were the
producer of the game and that's who makes the decision,
or as a fan, did you want to see the
replay or would you prefer not to see the replay? Yeah,
(17:41):
it's like six nine eighty seven two five seventy all right,
So now you get to produce a telecast or you
can speak as a fan. Would you want to see
a replay like that? Or are you of the opinion
I don't need to see it? Your calls are next.

App Big Ben Maller in today for Rodney on a
five seventy LA Sports. So, Bet, I was walking around
here and I just ran into somebody in the hall
and she told me I love Ben Maller, love it.
Speaker 3 (18:31):
Oh wow.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
And I said, oh wow, okay, well I'm doing the
show with him today. And she said years ago, and
were you at k Cow.
Speaker 3 (18:41):
No, I never I might have walked in there a futures,
but I wasn't.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
Yah, she ran she ran into you, okay, and she
said you were very nice and actually invited her name
was Caitlin and actually invited her down to watch the show.
I don't think she went, but oh yeah, yeah, I
think I remember she was.
Speaker 3 (19:02):
I think I ran into a Dodger stadium.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
Actually back, is that what it was.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
I think it was a Dodger stadium.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
Yeah. And she said you were the building in some
the pulvot right Fox Sports Radio. Yeah yeah, And she
could not say enough good things about you.
Speaker 3 (19:13):
So I wow, I was very kind.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
Yeah, turn on the app, I said, we're on right now.
She's like walking around in the other room. I said,
turn on the app.
Speaker 3 (19:19):
And what does she do there?
Speaker 1 (19:21):
What is your gig name? She has become she's kind
of learned the business and she's a reporter and she's
did a really nice job.
Speaker 3 (19:30):
That's great.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
Yeah, I remember that was years ago. That it's been
been a while, so that's awesome.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (19:36):
It's a small world, right, it's a small world after all.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
And what you understand, Ben, and you're not there yet,
the world gets a lot smaller, is you get a
lot older? Trust me, it just does, it does all right.
So here's the question, Dodger fans. They made a decision
last night not to show what happened to Max Montsey
and a replay they said were not going to do that.
That was their call. If you were producing the cast,
(20:00):
would you have shown it? As a fan, would you
have wanted to see it? Or do you think they
made the right decision? Darren is in SeeMe Valley. Darren,
thank you for holding and you wanted to see it, right.
Speaker 11 (20:14):
Yeah, frend big, big show. Yeah, my foes had have
blown up with all my buddies last night wanting to
see it. They could have shown it with a little
disclaimer that had been fine.
Speaker 1 (20:25):
But overall you thought they should have shown it.
Speaker 11 (20:27):
Absolutely absolutely should have shown it. And and by the
way on the uh the top Dodger pitchers, you guys
are forgetting Drysdale, fo Fax, Drysdale, Sutton, Fernando and Kersh.
No matter what category, those are the top five in
probably different orders depending on the category.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
All right, Darren, thanks for calling. Have a say fourth
of July.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
See, it depends on age. Fred the greatest Dodger pitcher.
Depends on age. Because that guy you can tell you picked,
I went co Fact. I didn't watch go Fax pitch,
but I picked co Fax because of his resume. But
then I went more to me, it was hirsh is
said when I was younger, his dominance, and then Fernando.
But his guy, Darren, he's probably older than me, and
he went with you know, Drysdale and Sutton ahead of
(21:08):
those guys.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
See. That's why I was intrigued by Bill's article because
as he broke it down to me, it it basically
cut through the generations. He just said, no matter how
old you are, here's my case for this. You know
what I mean.
Speaker 3 (21:26):
I just I get I can't get past the playoff.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
He's Picasso in the regular season and then he's playing
with crayons in the play.
Speaker 3 (21:32):
I mean it just sucks. But that's what it's been.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
All right, Let's go Rosa. She's on the fifteen freeway
and Rosa, you're glad they didn't show what happened to
Max Muncy.
Speaker 12 (21:42):
I think it was very respectful for backs anyone that
wants to see it. I'm an old lady. I'll wish
seventy three a little.
Speaker 6 (21:50):
Later this month.
Speaker 1 (21:51):
God bless you.
Speaker 12 (21:52):
This is my and I'm headed to the Dodger game
right now. I think it was very respectful for Max
months see. Anybody that wanted to see it. They pulled
their phone out, they google it. I sit right next
to the Dodger bullpen. My daughter had the phone out
and we had a group of the relievers over watching
it on my daughter's phone. They chose to watch it.
(22:14):
You know, in today's society, it's like the more voriate is,
the more you want.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
To see it.
Speaker 12 (22:20):
I think there's a final line just showing it to everybody,
with or without a disclaimer, and just letting people choose
for themselves. And that's my opinion.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
All right. By the way, you're on the fifteen. Where
are you coming from?
Speaker 12 (22:36):
Okay, I'm now on the sixty. I live in Norco
and this is the Fourieth game I will be headed
to this year.
Speaker 3 (22:44):
Now, what's the plan?
Speaker 2 (22:45):
So it's still early, The game's not till tonight, So
what do you appreciate it?
Speaker 3 (22:49):
What are you doing?
Speaker 6 (22:51):
No?
Speaker 12 (22:51):
No, there are a lot of us that we pay
so much for the Dodger season tickets. They went up
twenty one percent last year they win up. There's rumors
they're going to go up twenty five percent this year.
I'm retired. I'm retired on a teacher's salary, and I
can't afford the twelve hundred and thirteen hundred dollars up
(23:15):
front to pay for the parking. Occasionally, when I bring
somebody with me, I'll buy the party. But there are
places you could park outside the stadium that are not
that horrendous of a walk.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
Spot.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
That's a savvy move right there. Let me tell you
I've done the same thing.
Speaker 3 (23:35):
You know, I'm not. I'm not beyond that. In fact,
I went to I remember fraid I told you so.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
I went to a game with Marlins man. He got
me a ticket, He got me a ticket behind home plate. Well,
I don't have parking anymore because I'm not you know,
the Dodgers press box is full with the Otani media,
so I'm not in there anymore. So I got there
early and I parked down near the Fire Academy. You know,
it's like five dollars or whatever. And I walked up
the hill. It was like ninety five degrees that day.
(24:00):
I walked up the hill into the stadium. I was
covered in sweat by the time I got into the stadium.
Speaker 1 (24:04):
How did it take you to walk up the hill?
Speaker 2 (24:06):
It didn't take that long, but it was I'm a
sweater and it was ninety five degrees and it was horrible,
and so I was so embarrassed. I got there and
I walked into the bathroom. I started trying to drive
myself out because I was covered in sweat. Before I
was hanging out with Marlin's man. They get you know,
my buddy from Miami who was in town. So but
that's a good move. Ros save money. You gotta get
if red.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
In this economy, you got to say, what's yeah?
Speaker 13 (24:30):
Right?
Speaker 1 (24:31):
Thanks North of July.
Speaker 2 (24:32):
Yeah, And when you go to Dodger Stateium and there
are places around there, the savvy veterans nowhere to park.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
Now.
Speaker 2 (24:38):
I used to live and I lived over in Lincoln
Heights for a while, and I could just like walk
from where I live.
Speaker 3 (24:42):
But you down in like Chinatown.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
There you can park. There's some parking down there here
if you get there, if you know where to go.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
The real ones know.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
But here's my question, and that's why I asked, because
I see people park there all the time. Sure, yeah,
how long does it take you to walk into the stadium.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
Well, if you're in good shape, probably that. Look, I'm
in average shape, so it takes me a fair amount
of time. I got a plan for the whole thing.
The worst is those day games when it's really hot.
That's like that is absolutely horrific. But like I told you,
I was sweating. I'm a sweater anyway. Uh But yeah,
I mean there's people sometimes for playoff games I've done
in the past. For playoff games, you can't get there
(25:18):
early enough. There's people there in the morning that are
parked for playoff games. Like I usually get there in
the afternoon. But man, it's insane.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
You can't pregame in your car, right, I mean, you
can't start getting liquored up in your car.
Speaker 3 (25:29):
Well, it depends depends who catches you.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
Fred's legally you probably can't, but you know, if you
choose to, uh you know, if you have tinted windows
in your car, Limo tints, you might be able to
get away with it.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
All right, let's go to LA Al thanks for holding.
Do you think they should have shown it or not?
Speaker 6 (25:46):
Well, a happy poor guys.
Speaker 7 (25:48):
As far as seeing it, I couldn't get sports at LA,
so I had to wash it through the Chicago feeds.
And so I was watching the broadcast from Chicago and
they did show. They showed it about six times from
different angle. It was, uh, yeah, it reminded me a
little bit, not as bad as what happened to a
(26:11):
quarterback from the Redskins. Yeah, with Joe tie, but it
was it was pretty gruesome. You just saw his ne
just to give way, and then with the different angles,
it gave you a completely different perspective from the Chicago
feed and so, I mean, I could see why people
(26:31):
wouldn't see it.
Speaker 6 (26:32):
I saw it.
Speaker 7 (26:33):
I'm kind of glad I saw it because it kind
of gave you an idea of what's gonna happen. And
I don't think Mike Monthy's coming back anytime soon. It's
definitely gonna affect the Dodgers. As far as the tailgating thing,
I will tell you, guys, parking Union Station, the best
place to go. Go to Tracks a bar and say
hello to Johnny the bartender there. He's gonna take care
(26:55):
of you know, literal liquored up before you go, telling
you guys that that's a great thing. Tracks right, trying
Johnny the Bartender.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
All right, July, Hey Frid that guys get free drinks now.
Because you mentioned Johnny the Bartender. He put a little
he puts a little extra in there. Johnny the Bartender,
he'll take care he'll take care of you, a little
extra injury.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
He'll get you ready for Dodger baseball. I'll go up
Chris and La. Chris, you did not want to see it,
is that correct?
Speaker 14 (27:21):
I did want to see, you know, And they were
talking about how gruesome it was, so me and my wife,
I'm sitting there and so I just hit rewind and
went back. And I don't think it was anything like
the Joe thisman uh it's situation. I mean, his need
been back. But I didn't find it gruesome at all.
But the crazy thing is after the game, during their theirs,
their show and they're interviewing Dave Roberts with the split screen,
(27:44):
what do they have on the other screen be playing
the injury three or four times? So it's like you
didn't want to show us when it happened, but now
after the game during the press conference, you're showing it.
And I'm sure it's the same producer. So that was
a little weird. But I didn't think it was all
that gruesome, and I think you should be able to
see it as long as you don't see his leg
(28:04):
breaking apart, which it wasn't. I think it's a little
overkill on their part.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
Thanks Chris.
Speaker 2 (28:10):
I agree with Chris as long as when you see
the bone snap, I don't need to see that. But
as lay on the knee bending back, I'm okay, And
it really is to me, it's a respect thing. Fred, Like,
as you said, when you were doing TV at Channel
four back in the day, you would warn people, So
just like, just put if you don't want to see this,
look away for a second. To me, that that would
have been the way they should have done it. On
the broadcast last night, all.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
Right in Santa Clarita, Tony is on the line, and
Tony did not want it shown right, Tony.
Speaker 15 (28:37):
Yeah, they just show it one more time to see
if the runner is safer out on the stolen base.
And that's it. But this Bill Plashki, is he actually
from Los Angeles? If it wasn't for Coofax and Nukeom
and Drysdale, the Dodges would have been irrelevant in the sixties.
All they had was Maury Wills and pitchers. And until
Tommy Lasorda came in with his offense, the well thrust
and sucked. And if if it wasn't for Tommy Losorda's
(29:01):
offense in Sutton and Valenzuela and Herscheizer, the Dodgers would
have been irrelevant. And and Kershaw is lucky that Tommy
Losorda was never his manager. He would have done to
him what he did the need in fear and forced.
He remember what he said about those guys when they choked.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
Okay, how do you really feel, Tony? Don't hold back, Tony,
don't hold back, my ma.
Speaker 13 (29:23):
I mean.
Speaker 1 (29:26):
Taking a shot at everybody, all right? Freddy's in Lejabra, Freddie,
you wanted to see what happened, right.
Speaker 6 (29:34):
Yes, I wanted to see what happened. But I want
to say something before that. David vassay, he needs to
quick kissing the player's butts as he does all the time.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
You know, white David getting shot at here.
Speaker 3 (29:45):
You let him, let him, let the man speak, Let
the man speak.
Speaker 6 (29:49):
The same Kershaw, two times World Series champion. We all
know if Kershaw was healthy and pitching in the last
World Series that the Dodgers won, you know, instead of
having a bull full of pin games, they would have
had a Kershaw game and they would have lost twelve
to one.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
Okay, right, Freddy, Freddy, Freddy, wait, I like.
Speaker 3 (30:10):
This guy, Freddy. I like this guy. I understand. I
like bitter Freddy. I like this guy.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
Historical moment last night. Three thousand strikeouts and you're telling
us if he had pitched in the World Series the
Dodgers would have lost, Freddie, can't we take a moment.
Speaker 6 (30:26):
Too, I mean, just look at the first innings. I mean,
I didn't think he was going to get three strikeouts.
It was a miracle. And even that pitch, that final
pitch was outside by about four inches, but the unch
just gave it to him so they could he could,
you know, get it.
Speaker 3 (30:41):
Freddy, fred I think when you're saying Freddy, thank you.
Speaker 2 (30:45):
It was like a playoff environment last night, and Clayton
had some issues.
Speaker 3 (30:50):
You know, there was a kind of a playoff environment.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
There was a lot of buzz in the ballpark, right,
there's some energy there, big moment everyone was anticipating, and
he had some issues he did.
Speaker 6 (30:58):
That's a fair points, he said. I loved.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
Let him go. Let him go, Hi, Freddy.
Speaker 4 (31:07):
Course, Ben loves Hi because he took shots atass A,
So that's right.
Speaker 3 (31:11):
Let that guy. Let the man speak.
Speaker 5 (31:12):
By the way, vass A doesn't need us to defend him.
But I think it's unfair to say that he kisses
the players butts. I think it's quite the opposite. Anybody
that listens to Dave knows that that's not true. I
don't know about that when he ripped it Tanner Scott
for an entire postgame show from not talking to the media.
Speaker 4 (31:26):
That was a month ago.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
I I just want to understand why out a day
the day after Clayton Kershaw that's the three thousand strikeouts.
We can all agree that's a milestone.
Speaker 3 (31:37):
It's big.
Speaker 1 (31:38):
Freddy comes in here, both barrels loaded.
Speaker 9 (31:41):
No.
Speaker 3 (31:41):
I love that. That's sports radio and its greatest right there.
That's sports talk radio right there.
Speaker 5 (31:47):
Freddy's love that the Dodgers didn't sweep the Yankees in
the World Series. He's pissed off about that. He's like,
why take you five games that he was roll with
your bumps?
Speaker 3 (31:54):
He lost, He lost the bet on the one day.
That's what it is.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
All right, Let's see what Charlie has to say. Charlie,
come in here. Now, what do you.
Speaker 13 (32:01):
Think Charlie's going to try to get this back on
the rails? About last night? I'm glad they didn't show it.
This was a historic night for kersh Baseball's America's game.
We're supposed to be happy, it's supposed to be relaxing.
We watch it for the baseball. If I want to
watch people's bones and things get destroyed, I'll watch MMA,
(32:26):
or I'll watch hockey, but not in my baseball game.
Speaker 1 (32:31):
All right, there you go.
Speaker 3 (32:33):
Ye again, I disagree, fred.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
I think you've got the people that invest time to
watch these games on TV.
Speaker 3 (32:39):
You've got to show them the whole thing.
Speaker 2 (32:41):
You're going to show them the drama, right, You're going
to show them the good stuff, but you also have
to show nobody wanted that to happen to Max Munsey, Right,
but you can't. You can't just pretend it didn't happen, right.
You know, it's not a privacy issue. There's no hippo
violation that took place or anything like that. It was
it was uncomfortable, it was real, it happened. It was
a thin and it's part of the story. So I again,
(33:02):
I think they should have shown it, but he obviously disagrees.
Speaker 1 (33:05):
All right, let's wrap it up now with Anthony and
the LBC. Anthony, what do you think?
Speaker 9 (33:12):
Yeah, how's it going?
Speaker 12 (33:13):
Brother?
Speaker 9 (33:13):
Yeah, I think that they should should have shown it.
To be honest with you, always as a game, and
I was trying to look at it just for the
severity of it.
Speaker 3 (33:22):
I wanted to.
Speaker 11 (33:23):
See how bad it was.
Speaker 9 (33:24):
I care about the guy, and you know, I'm a
big Dodger fan, So it was mostly just because of
that reason.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
All right, Anthony, appreciate it. Thank you for listening to
the station.
Speaker 5 (33:34):
By the way, I think Vassie might be listening right now.
He said, ask Ben what I call a two or
zero pitch? Do you know what that means?
Speaker 13 (33:40):
Ben?
Speaker 2 (33:42):
I know what a caller said on my show last night,
But I can't repeat during the day.
Speaker 1 (33:47):
I can't.
Speaker 5 (33:48):
He also asked if you're going to plug your big
meet and greet in Arkansas anytime soon.
Speaker 3 (33:52):
Well, if anybody in Arkansas knew who Vassy was, he
could go there. But unfortunately nobody knows who he is
in Arkansas.
Speaker 1 (33:58):
So yeah, is that a good getting or a bad
thing that nobody knows about her?
Speaker 2 (34:02):
You get again, vass A, fred disrespecting the hard working
people the overnight shift. It's not he's he's does he
understand fred the Mallard Militia, the group that I have
at night here, they will form Voltron late at night.
Speaker 3 (34:15):
You know when I'm messed with the Mallard Militia. You
don't do that. He's playing with fire here, That's what
I'm saying with vass here. I don't know he's doing that.
Speaker 2 (34:22):
Listen, David, make sure that Blake Snell gets his lunch. Okay,
it's about lunchtime. Make sure he gets his lunch and
leave us alone.
Speaker 1 (34:27):
Okay, come on, Oh god, I don't know why Freddy
had to call and start all this.
Speaker 2 (34:32):
I love Freddy. That was my favorite call. That's the
greatest call you've taken, fred since I've been with you.
Speaker 3 (34:36):
I love it.
Speaker 1 (34:38):
Here for this he starts just a war, a war.
Speaker 3 (34:42):
I love it. Freddy holds a grudge. I like that man.
He just holds a grudge. That's my kind of caller.
Speaker 1 (34:46):

Speaker 1 (35:29):
All right. Today's throwback Thursday edition of Afternoon Delight is
California Girls by Katy Perry.
Speaker 3 (35:36):
You like this, Ben, Yeah, I still listen back in
the day.
Speaker 13 (35:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (35:41):
Good song.
Speaker 1 (35:41):
So the song is the lead single off the Pop
Singers twenty ten album titled Teenage Dream.
Speaker 2 (35:47):
Is eight fifteen Years fifteen Years Home Chah Wow.
Speaker 1 (35:51):
Yeah. It was number one of the Billboard Hot one
hundred for six consecutive weeks span the months of June
and July last year or that year, i should say,
and featured rap legend Snoop Dogg. In an interview, Perry
said that this song was made in response to the
Alicia Keys and Jay Z hit song Empire State of Mind.
She said she was jealous of the love that the
East Coast was receiving. She wanted to make sure people
(36:14):
don't forget about the West Coast again. Today's Throwback Thursday
edition of Afternoon Delight is California Girls by Katie Perry
featuring Snoop Dogg. Okay, this is big news. Big news
if you have kids and you are from southern California.
I am guessing at one point or another you had
(36:36):
been to Chuck E Cheese. Now, the thing about Chuck
E Cheese, the kids are just having the best time.
They have the giant rat that walks around. You can
have birthday parties as well, but with all due respect
and please, I hope the people Chuck E Cheese don't
take this the wrong way. The pizza tastes like cardboard, right,
they do. I think sell beer and wine. And if
(36:59):
you take your kids there, trust me, you're gonna need it.
You're going to need the beer and wine you go
with it. Yeah, so big news. Big news now for
those of you who have had little kids and they've
grown and they're not ready for Chuck E Cheese anymore. Now,
Chuck E Cheese is opening a spot for you. What
(37:22):
they're doing is creating Chuck's Arcade, a modern day love
letter to the games and people who made Chuck E
Cheese great. So Chuck E Cheese is not for adults.
And they're going to open these at malls across the
United States. They will serve food, some of that great pizza,
small selection of beer and wine, I am told, and
(37:44):
they're going to have old arcade games in there, kind
of like the games that you grew up with, So
there would be pong things like that in the Chuck
E Cheese.
Speaker 3 (37:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (37:58):
So from my marketing standpoint, my first thought fredd Is.
This is brilliant, right, because it's a nostalgia market. I
hope they have the scent. You know when I when
I would go into Chuck E Cheese, you smell that
old carpet that has had foods, you know, spilled on it.
And you can smell the pizza grease when you walk
in there and all and uh. And they got to
have ski ball if you that's a must. Chuck E Cheese.
Speaker 3 (38:18):
And a claw machine.
Speaker 2 (38:20):
You cannot win an impossible claw If they have those
two things, that's all you need. It's nostalgia night. And
I think they opened the first one of these in
Orange County. I think I think I heard some about it,
like the first one, the test version of this was
in in the OC.
Speaker 3 (38:34):
So it's a time capsule, right, flashback claw machine.
Speaker 1 (38:39):
That's my problem now when you think about it, when
do you ever win with the claw machine?
Speaker 2 (38:44):
And if if you win, you got to spend like
hundreds of dollars to win. Like I know, I've been
to Dave and Busters with the wife. We've gone out
there and we've seen people win and then you go
up to him You're like, well, how long have you
been playing the claw machine. Oh but two hours. You know,
it's like, well why not just go buy the item?
You know, you better off just going to the store
and buying the eye, or you're buying it on Amazon
(39:05):
or whatever.
Speaker 3 (39:05):
What are you doing now?
Speaker 4 (39:06):
The call machine is like the ring toss that a fair.
Oh they have it in for you. You already know
you can't win the car.
Speaker 1 (39:12):
I think that's so wrong. Look when you go to
those little fairs, and I've told the story about when
I met ce Lo or Jojo the dog Face woman.
You know, you you meet the little characters and things
and they have the little side shows. But it's like
you want to win and you just can't. And it's
very frustrating to me, very frustrating. Well, you mean, if
(39:34):
you ever want anything big at those carnivals.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
Well you get close enough where you think you're about
to win, that's where they get you. I got you
by the balls, right because they're like, oh, yeah, you're
about to win, So I'll play one more time or
two more times, and I'm gonna win. And then I
won one time when I was a kid with it.
It was an underhand softball toss into a wooden basket
and you had to get like a couple.
Speaker 3 (39:56):
It was from a far distance.
Speaker 2 (39:57):
I want I want a big stuffed animal as a kid,
And ever since that I've been trying to recreate that,
I've not won anything.
Speaker 3 (40:04):
So here's the key.
Speaker 1 (40:05):
Because you know that that basket has a spring in
the back, right, so you've got a lobb it and
they have to hit the basket and just roll back
gently enough where it doesn't pop out, right, isn't that
how you do it?
Speaker 3 (40:17):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (40:17):
There are some YouTube videos that show you cheat codes
and how to win the games, but even if you
know what you need to do, it's still near impossible
unless you have just nothing but free time to practice
those moves.
Speaker 1 (40:31):
There are code wait, there's YouTube cheap code videos.
Speaker 2 (40:34):
Yeah, there are people that will tell you how to
win the Carnie games, like because you know the La
County Fair, the Orange County Fair, all these things coming up,
you can you can watch and study those videos.
Speaker 3 (40:43):
They'll tell you here's how they rig the game, here's
how you can beat it.
Speaker 1 (40:46):
Kevin, Kevin, can you find one of those.
Speaker 4 (40:49):
I'll effort that for it.
Speaker 3 (40:51):
He's efforting right now.
Speaker 1 (40:51):
Okay, that means he doesn't really want to do it.
You don't do the show enough Ben to know that
means I don't want to do that. You know that
really means Fred, that idea sucks.
Speaker 5 (41:00):
That's a bad radio and fairness, Fred, if your idea sucks,
I'll tell you.
Speaker 4 (41:05):
I'll say it on the air. I've said it before.
Speaker 3 (41:07):
Do that so that spread your idea sucks.
Speaker 5 (41:10):
See, I said, you're clear now, Kevin, I have no
promise it.
Speaker 4 (41:13):
I don't either, which is why I said, our effort.
Speaker 1 (41:15):
Just see and if there's one that's interesting and the
guy who really explained something, let's run a little of it,
because I think that'll be like a public service. As
we going to the fourth of July.
Speaker 2 (41:23):
It's a great idea because this you know, the summer
seasons here right fourth of July, and go out when
you know you see you go to the La County
Fair and I see people walking around with giant stuffed animals,
and I my thought is always not boy, they're good
at the games, it's how much did they spend to
get the stuffed animal? That's always my thought when I
see it. Now, this chucky cheese thing, though, Fred, I
feel like I don't deserve to be I know, and
Roddy's obvious way. But Jonas Knox is a former Chucky
(41:45):
Cheese who fills in here. He has he Yeah, he
has insider information, but I didn't. I went to Chucky
Cheese when I was younger, but I didn't. I didn't
work at Chucky Cheese. I don't have inside information like that.
Speaker 9 (41:55):
No.
Speaker 1 (41:56):
Well, and next week Jonahs will be back. I think
we're gonna ask him about it. Okay, but you know
what about the fair? I'm gonna give everybody a tip.
You want to know the game that you can win
if you go to the little Carnival or the little fair. Yeah,
it's the game with the horses where you roll a
ball and depending on what hole it goes in, the
horse moves that many steps or that many lengths.
Speaker 3 (42:18):
The race.
Speaker 1 (42:18):
Yeah, yeah, the race. That's the game you can win.
That is the game you can win. How do you win?
Keep the ball moving, keep it moving quickly, Yeah, and
try to bank it and always get it in that
top hole so it'll go three each time. That's your key,
that's your tip. So you don't have to look that
one up, Kevin, I already know how to do that one.
Speaker 2 (42:38):
Yeah, what about the one where you have the water
gun and you have to fill the balloon up by shooting.
Speaker 3 (42:45):
Have you seen that one?
Speaker 2 (42:45):
When you shoot the water you gotta hit them right
in the mouth, in the mouth, right, yeah, yeah, right, yeah,
yeah yeah.
Speaker 1 (42:50):
And I think I see, I think I get screwed
on that. I think I do a pretty good job,
but I don't win.
Speaker 2 (42:55):
You have good aim, you're like a like a Navy
seal sniper with your water gun, you know.
Speaker 1 (43:00):
But here's the thing about that. From the minute it starts,
you got to nail it. If you're just off a
little bit at the beginning, you lose. So you just
have to that first shot. It's got to be right
on target, and then just hold it there, hold it
if you're off. I'm telling you, if you're off just
the slightest bit with the first shot, you lose.
Speaker 3 (43:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (43:18):
And then you come back and you think, you know,
I'm just off a little bit. I'll put another buck down.
Let's go again. Now you're down twenty bucks. Yeah, and
you have like a caterpillar before. That's what you want
so far.
Speaker 5 (43:28):
So I did find one. The visual would help, but
I think it's okay. It's still passable for us. To
play on radio if I can just set it up
a little bit.
Speaker 1 (43:36):
So they're like, you want to do it next hour?
Speaker 4 (43:38):
You want to wait till next hour.
Speaker 2 (43:39):
That's fine, that's seizing ahead for it. You got to
tease ahead to Okay, we'll play next hour. But I
want you to give an update real quick before I forget.
So my guys, my overnight guys are listening to the
show and they want to go to battle with fast A.
Speaker 3 (43:53):
They are prepared, they are.
Speaker 2 (43:55):
In fact, Terry is listening over in England and he
wants me to unleash the hounds. The Malor militia is
locked and loaded.
Speaker 3 (44:01):
He said.
Speaker 1 (44:01):
I cannot allow ben. I cannot allow the Malor militia
to come on the air and start attacking David vass
I will not do it.
Speaker 5 (44:10):
If they want to attack Vassa, they can attack in
themselves on Dodger Talk tonight after the Dodger game, after
they played the White Sox. You guys can have the
militia go after vass A on Dodger Talk.
Speaker 2 (44:22):
There you go call him up, Alf and you guys
that are listening, So just save.
Speaker 3 (44:27):
Or my show at night. But yeah, will this would
be a safe space for it is that what.
Speaker 1 (44:31):
This is, this is it's going to be a safe
space today. Okay, I'm not putting David Vass up against
the wall facing a firing squad where he's not here
to defend himself. I won't do it.
Speaker 2 (44:41):
Yeah, he'll have he'll have a bunch of Dodger guys
defending him, so he'll be all right with bats.
Speaker 1 (44:47):
So the big news, of course, Kevin has found the
cheat code for the Carnival game, and we'll do that
next hour. But first we'll talk about the Carnival that
is the Lakers and Dan Wyke. You will join us
