Dodgers Vs. D-backs GAME Highlights Sep 01 ,24 | MLB Season 2024

taking the first two games of this four game set and the Diamondbacks are set to counter punch with Brandon fought the right-hander on the mound he has been for the most part Jose Moda their most reliable starter this year he has been even though he has scuffled the last couple4 ra Junior Valentine our plate umpire back there calling balls and Strikes and here is the show show he hit a leadoff Homer of the ball game here yesterday sh Otani leading the national league in runs homers RB and Ops he generally leads the nationa league in baseball and it's 0 and one change up from thought fooled him a bit Jose we've noticed in this series in Otani in recent weeks he's chasing some pitches a bit more than he was earlier this year yes he has uh the one thing we show here is he'll Chase and look back all of so you make one mistake and there it is as you say he plays baseball all it takes 02 from flood got him doubled up on the change up and no this ball F could go to count him one guy Corbin Carol already made his presence felt in this series McCarthy in Center guill left Suarez P manuman Bell and up on the plate you got to feel good when we throw a sinker for the guys behind you and if you elevate anything there's a lot of speed out there at the Outfield iond back's always an excellent defensive team here's mie bets he's a pretty good hitter and Bs jumps on that fast ball and knocks it into Center he was among these first three Dodger hitters to Homer off Merill Kelly to start the game here last night there's a teken a he pretty much B throughout this series anything hitable they're going to go out there not just think about slugging but as mooki shows here let me go out there and serve it up the way he's showing it to me but it was a good movement on that pitch coming in so take notice right-handed batters a lot of early count swings from LA in this series Freddy Freeman has always torn this place apart 286 and now 19 homers mookie 13 for 14 in the stolen base attempts and there's another first pitch swing from Freeman who's homered in each of his first twoth bats in this series and Jake McCarthy makes a spectacular catch in right center readyy gave it a ride and McCarthy got that 413 Mark exactly what we're talking about he Elevate now you have confidence on the guys behind you because they're close and speed is just amazing the routes they take and just ball up you know it is challenging sometimes even will the roof close he went out there extended so well made an outstanding athletic play just in the top webbing of the glove Jake McCarthy tracking him down in Center the cleanup man for the Dodgers the dangerous tasar Hernandez that's it first with two outs so far this is the kind of series it's been F's only thrown five pitches we've had a strike out a base hit and a spectacular play in center it's like the pattern has not changed like why change it if you're attacking early and scoring early stay the same so far in the first inning between these two teams in the series we've seen 11 runs on 13 hits including nine extra base hits that's just how we've started Dave Roberts club now six up on the Diamondbacks at top the NL West you and I chatted with Doc in his office before the game and he talked to us about the importance for the Dodgers and this is a little bit new for them because they've been so good for so long of playing meaningful games down the stretch it matters a whole lot to the players the coaches of preparation and also the intensity you want to take into October once you get there 02 from flaud the Oscar top five of the league in strikeouts Strikes Out CL punches out to but he got big the in Center McCarthy goes and gets it diamond backs against DOD rookie left-hander Justin riny out of Hickory Flat Georgia making only his sixth career Major League start Romo the short stop the switch hitter leads it off and there's the fast ball for ball one raldo promo 274 3 homers more and more an offensive presence on this Diamond Back ball Club the defending national league Champs pretty good fast ball right there Junior Valentine though right at the belts is ball two and it's two and0 with Corbin Carol on day well Jose Dave Roberts talked to us about reesy in the first concern he raised was fastball command command and I think to me it comes down to SLO everything down to begin with not to do it too fast Romo very patient hitter pulls back on that 3oh but look Corbin Carol along deck then it's Lis guel Jr just underway from Chase Field in Phoenix Romo fights off that fast ball Freeman over to give it a look but it's in the seats out of play breski does have enough fast ball and enough sink to keep his defense occupied and you got to trust it you know it shouldn't just be an early count type of pitch you can set up a hitter a lot of times in thinking breaking ball and you can surprise him with that sneaky fast ball 3 two in the air to Center k k veteran out there one of the new Dodgers has it for the first out as we get a look PLA and glove take care of it along with a gold Glover Muki bets making that switch from the short stop second base last tier and right field by K me tcar has been quite adaptable in either Corner they have Mony Tommy edman and Lux Freeman and Barnes Orbin Carroll takes a fast ball Corbin has homered six times over what is now with trying to get that curveball through the front door Corbin hits it out there here Meers set to do it again this one a little bit easier two outs in the first and he'll work it upstairs leave the for seamer the slider the Cur that cast powered by Google Cloud guel Bater that n is so strong he's got the arms got the hands and waits on the ball and explodes and a great addition here in the desert 3-1 almost hit him and there's Ball Four pregame in during the open they average I mean and having a walk like this after two outs opens up a possibility for a guy that perhaps wants to see inside Bell at first base in the cleanup spot Diamond Backs as Pedro Martinez once said pitchers hate to throw pitches grounded to third it backs up Muny they go the short way and Lux has it for the force on guel Diamond Backs and the Dodgers in Phoenix we are scoreless after one welcome be Sunday lead off on the Roku Channel and we present Diamond Back Short Stop raldo Pomo how you doing Domo doing great we got a miked up Steve berthume Jose moo chatting with a diamond back short stop as Gavin Lux leads off the Dodges second against Brandon Faldo it's been a crazy first two games how you holding up it's been so crazy I never seen something like this before NE Nei of we yeah you got to play in a World Series so he understand the importance of games like this in the regular season too that's right um I told to the media the other day like those game going to be like a playoff hour you know um you know the daor have amazing team and we are young Talent you know Naldo you beat him in the division series last year how did that change the balance between these two teams from your perspective it sh sh a lot you know I think we her they feeling and I think they that's why they come in with everything you know 3 and0 on Lu okay so you have somebody that throws a lot of good two seers when he does his game how big is it for you positioning wise what do you say again positioning wise when he plays with somebody who throws a lot of good sinkers like f i mean when hold on yeah um I play play a little bit more uh to the edge of the circle when I saw guy throw a lot of Sinker but you know we got a car and I always followed bydo pelo H I got I got youin know okay I got you what you say again go I can run you know I'm luck he can but he's not the same guy like running you just had knee surgery yourself how you doing yeah bounced up the middle and it is Center Edmond knocks it through L stops IT second first to a board in the LA second in this changes you have a power hitter a patient hitter positioning wise you're thinking more about depth especially that guy p a lot of baseball Max M Max M steps in caught two on and no out scoreless in the second down the line in right and F Ramon De Jesus waved it off more that just missed down that [Applause] line you're giving it to Quinn Walcott the Umpire sure Junior Valentine's back there so you know with mon I play oh and two on the DI right here guy can you in the with the pitch comom in your hat yeah you got can hear that no we can't hear it oh thank God too loud in here anyway I [Applause] know hey if I said hey hey let me ask you if I had boy oh he got him such a big pitch everything set by that fast yeah Kevin km fouls that one off I got R TV where I'll talk to somebody for hey this might do it for you so thank you for raring the mic out of the second out of you know I like to play Sensational crowds here so far they go2 I think was was very important for us we can't hit two two I it get your swing off your timing's off the hands go forward your bottom Sid's B out and that's what happens you got no carry hey her so her now position changes now you're looking for depth uh yeah trying to keep the ball in the trying to pitch his way out of a jam it hangs up in right center McCarthy can go get him Corbin's got it haraldo Pomo thank you very much Heraldo you want to fly or what de mot Jody Jackson here scoreless Diamond Backs and Dodgers is a high energy heart and soul kind of guy Rich the DH bats fifth Rich a critical right hand bat for the Diamond Backs right now and he shoots one toward the left field corner and it's off the bullpen fence and gritch Coast into second with a lead off double he is the right hand version of their right as the ball approaches short compact sling a great finish all the way through chance KY if they want to give up on the bunt or not very aware yeah Freddy even with a bat he is hitting 333 versus lefties this year and keeps it in front either 105 at bats off game there's not a formula you want to continue with they have a chance to take the lead right here McCarthy went down two Runners get on there Lux ad Min Muny came a foul ball away from driving them in but I just want just added length and and obviously we built an inning right there and uh you know Brandon got a couple punch outs right back getting Tommy uh here at the deadline and then obviously Miguel yeah you know what we certainly need length I'm sure Tori needs length out of uh fat as well I I think um you know it just he's got to command the thanks Dave appreciate it got thank you Jody here's Gino Suarez belts it in left gr had to hold up freezing a line drive here he comes K me the throw it's offline and the Diamondbacks have the lead except the zone are costly against this team and it doesn't matter which part first no player in the major leagues has more AR eyes oh Kevin Newman the second baseman that'ss e this is a ankle spring Newman holding down the forward at second against left-handers and there's the strike at nine the long run Diamond Backs do have against right-handers when promo's batting at the bottom of this lineup they can get things started for the top either turn the lineup around and give the guys up the top a chance to go out there and drive some more runs other way in right and they'll stop Suarez at third three hits in the inning against reesi and no throw it through the glove not to the glove still elevated the not catching up the arms not catching up so that's why he's there's an Aiming issue in aspect to try to throw a strike finish it catcher her herera bats right now Bo in a start here Friday in the series open and he sends one up the middle it drops into Center Suarez scores another RBI for Jose Herrera 8 in and only allows a hitter th so far steeve very similar every single one of them Arizona buckled Pomo a bit with a curve and you hear the beat La chant inside Chase Field that's a fair ball down the line Newman Will score Herrera being waved around third here he comes zaldo Pomo drives in two more four consecutive hits five in this inning talk enough of that baseball allowing it to go and get ahead of you morbin Carroll as Dave Roberts told us some length it's a tired Dodger bullpen bhaw in the second inning in the opener here Friday became a bullpen and0 make it three and0 missed with a at least four runs in an inning he missed with a second walk for reesi so you got aggressiv is to say okay how do we not help him out in other words the the strikes he needs to throw stay stubborn to your zone is to where the always tells his hitters that's foul away first pitch fast you get a little old right just play right into the hands inning right here Ariel slams it to left Hernandez is there and that's out number two's that one a glove good read on left field for the doers and right and left field very dependable B did he check no it's he one and two out four runs already home that the Dodgers just needed somebody to pitch and were bless was next man up it just kind of worked out that way he's thrown 46 pitches more balls than strikes and Bell knocks it into right he'll wave Pomo that's throw is cut off and it's a five run diamond back all we talk about the struggles you mention me the struggles they've had against lefties it's been pretty much a hitting prade in a hitting clinic on how to approach double into the leftfield corner he jumps on the first one sends K Meer back to the track back to the wo and it's [Applause] gone [Applause] [Music] four gritch got it started gritch comes again Richard goes dead Central on a center cut F from 95 great carry because of the swing and how the cans came through looking for answers perhaps from his very tired Bullpen mark happened here two days ago that was ran through nearly his entire Bullpen out of necessity two and one cus here last night but they have answered back so far today here early him split one more to go tomorrow McCarthy keeps spraying these fast balls over there this inning and 41 on the way a secondary or third pitch 10th pitch of the Gap bat to McCarthy reesi knocks it down recovers and makes Theona after two when you consider how bad they have been scuffling against left ended pitchers go back to our reading kids in the blue sometimes bring such a smile the families and everything that goes along with enjoying a ball game and forgetting Hospital PCH here they've had a number of charitable events over the course of the season this year all the players involved and you're right it's a it's a very very worthy cause and something we have suddenly holding an 8 nothing lead Tani struck out to lead off the game after hitting a lead off home started things off for Los Angeles but then he got the next three Hey where's our where's our colleague with two and two on Otani that's what pinpoint control you got to go out there and get him up and in we have him looking down because we you know one thing Show's hit spin Otani twice mie bz has one of two Los Angeles hits a single in the first either of these clubs DOD run shy after a furious comeback and then last night's game here was tied up after boy that Brandon flought sweeper then to follow through that's what I'm talking about throwing through that glove so you have that little Fredy Freeman thought four strikeouts with the sweeper and then F has struck out four the last five batters he's here's another thing all about attacking and keeping the same mentality don't pitch full Dodger lineup three MVPs up top there's the change of more than 50 games but fought goes - nothing lead Brandon fought seven strikeouts through three and bottom of the third Chris Taylor checks in replacing tasar Hernandez in left field as yeno Suarez leads off the bottom of the third is this Dave Roberts and it's early in this Ballpark and I'm actually a little surprised what's happening this early right now better than the manager people it's amazing how often people forget that yes maybe feeling we might not have all the information somebody's under the weather somebody's got to soar this or that two and two on Suarez and Dino gives it a ride to Center K Meer under the Home Run porch he's looking up and that's gone too Suarez it's 9 nothing 426 ft is 26
