Petru Some Money five Sports live everywhere on the iHeartRadio.
Up You're home of the World Series Champion. Dodgers back
in action tonight. After a day off yesterday, No day
off for David Veasse. He and taoskar Hernandez out at
the Ralph Laurent Polo store at the Citadel. No rest
for the weirdy and he's right back at it tonight.
Dodg You know what they said, they said. If you
say Ralph Lauren they fire you there. That's what a
(01:11):
social Matt said, Like they're so such sticklers at Ralph
Lauren about not saying, Ralph Lauren, y will fire you
on the on site. That's what social media Matt said.
But it was a very big event, very popular. Tell
mister I love his work.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Oh no, they had not one Matt, but two giant
size anthropomorphic Ralph Lauren bear mascots, both dudes, not like
Joe and Josephine Juke bruin, both dudes taking pictures with
Teal Scarr and.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Dave standard Ralph Lauren bear sweater.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
And I think it was the blazer. Oh wow, Yeah,
dressed up for the occasional blue blazer with the yellow buttons.
Ralph Lauren beautiful. If you say the other way, Lauren,
they fire you on the spot, like Sophia Lren correct,
but it's Ralph Lauren incorrect. What if I say, hey man,
you got some of them chaps around here? Then they
(02:11):
stream you up. It bleeds you like an animal if
you do that.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
But the Dodgers play baseball tonight. They did not play yesterday.
A rare Sunday off.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
All right, Matt, we have a word of the day
his words the word of the day. The word of
the day today Matt is battlefield promotion. Yes, Stanford and
has hired an interim coach for one season because Andrew Luck,
(02:51):
the new GM of Stanford Football, had to fire Troy Taylor,
Stanford head coach, for being well, uncouth or uncouth. I
don't really know how uncouth he was, you know.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
It sounds like he was just kind of an a hole.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
Yeah. Somebody said he was an equal opportunity ahole, And
I mean I've seen a lot of a hole coaches.
Does it get you fired? Well, apparently these days at
Stanford it does not if you're winning. Stanford is hiring
former NFL head coach Frank Reich as its interim head coach.
(03:31):
According to Pete Fammel, who broke the news, he has
been brevetted and received a battlefield promotion from Andrew Lucky
Stanford GM. Now don't you have didn't you come across?
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Now?
Speaker 3 (03:49):
I know they have a uh they have a connection
through the Colts, right, But yes, But Frank Reich was
at the Chargers for a second, wasn't he He was
the OC.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Yeah, he was the OC for the Chargers before he
became the head coach of the Colts and then the
head coach of the Panthers for a brief time. He's
you know, he's he's a lifer. It's one of those
dudes that's in and obviously was the backup quarterback in Buffalo.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
Yeah, he's the one that won the championship game. That
was the the war comeback, not the championship game, the
playoff game. That was the biggest comeback in the history
of the NFL playoffs. I think it was thirty five
to seven Oilers Buffalo Bills Oilers in Buffalo. Not Jim
Kelly at quarterback, but the backup quarterback, Frank Reich, who
(04:43):
led I remember watching that live too, who led them
back back back to victory. But he's going to be
the Stanford guy for a year, and then they're going
to conduct a national search. And the first thing I
thought was, what if what if Stanford has like a
renaissance year under Reich and blows up the ACC Will
(05:05):
they will they bring him back?
Speaker 1 (05:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (05:09):
I don't know, but Captain Luck Andrew Luck has a
battlefield promoted Frank Reich, an old friend, to be the
head coach at Stanford.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Pretty exatulations to Frank, I'm the hell of a coach.
Easip Rivers one of Philip rivers favorite. I think he
was the quarterback coach.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
There was a time that he was a real hot
NFL coach. Yes, and he's like sixty three years old now.
Former Maryland turp Frank Reich.
Speaker 4 (05:41):
It looks like Frank Reich and Andrew Luck crossed pass
at Indy for one year two thousand and eight.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
But there's still BFFs apparently.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
Because Luck out there just when he left in his
first time Frank Reich and then when Wright came back
to be head coach in eighteen, that was Andrew Luck's
last year.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
Typically doesn't well when you just hire guys you know,
or you're bringing players that.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
I remember when I remember when Baylor had that big
problem with Art Briles and they brought in Jim Grobe
for the one year, remember, and he came after the
spring kind of thing, and they had to fire Art Briles.
And I remember doing a Baylor game that year and
they were like, the only coach you can talk to
is Grobe. They're like, okay, so we talked to because
(06:26):
all the assistants were still Briles guys and We're like, Okay,
what's up with this team? Grobe. He's like, Wow, I
don't really know these guys. And it's like literally every
question we asked was like that. It was the weird
the weirdest thing. And then I was out to dinner
in West Virginia and one of the Baylor assistants caught
up to me. He was like, this is bees. They
won't even let us bake. I was just like, this
is the worst this situation I've ever heard. I don't
(06:49):
think it'll be like that, but that speaks to the
dysfunction that you're talking about. Andrew Luck seems to be
a pretty smart guy, and his father, of course, Oliver,
with a long history and aministration for athletic businesses in
schools and companies and things like that. Maybe he knows
Frank Reich's the guy to stabilize it for a year.
(07:10):
Or maybe Stanford will be like they always aren't win
two games and totally suck. There could be that as well.
Here's my number number of the day.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
Kate's not sure if you saw my text. Hopefully you
did it. You did. Today's number of the day is
Greek news.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
That's right, we did hear about this. Kate's tried to
get into the text. My apologies, No, that's okay, I
mean there is this is this is an interesting move
because because you don't expect the country of Greece, which
hasn't really been relevant for about three thousand years, to
get any love Greek news news that is Greek invented
(07:52):
Demontcresci and were the first people who you know, we
seek now here's Petros Pappa the headline, take it away back.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Los Angeles Chargers join NFL Global Markets Program, awarded international
marketing rights to Greece, their first international market, with all
of Mexico and the Central American countries and the South
American countries and Australia and the Pacific Rim all made available.
(08:28):
Almost feels like the triumvirent of Dean ag and John
Spinhaus were like, no, if you're not going to open Greece,
we're going to hold out until you open Greece and
then we'll start participating. And these international marketing rights deals, Okay,
show our homeland some respect and love that it deserves.
(08:50):
And the quote the homeland of my family, Greece is
left an eternal imprint on my heart. Eternal When the
opportunity to grow NFL football in the Los Angeles Chargers
brand and Greece presented itself, we simply could.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
Not pass it up. It's awesome.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
This is the best quote ever with ancient Greece. Sounds
like your father.
Speaker 3 (09:13):
Yeah, well, that's how Greeks have an epic way of spiking.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
Home to the first recorded Olympic Games in seven to
seventy six BC and host of the inaugural Summer Olympics
in eighteen ninety six, it seems only natural to bring
what I consider to be the best game in the
world to quite literally the birthplace of sport. We couldn't
be more excited to connect with Greeks from all walks
of life, make an impact on their communities, and share
(09:38):
our passion for the game we love. Now here's the
key one. You know, when you're the international marketing rights partner,
oftentimes you're going to jump to the front of the
line to play a game there, but good luck beyond that.
(10:02):
What you're doing is really spreading the game of American
football over the course of the off season. So the
Chargers will host youth camps and clinics. They'll probably get
a little NFL flag football going over there.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
Gotta do that, except the flag as a napkin in
the restaurant. In the ball, there's a goat bladder.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
The Chargers will officially kick off their efforts in Greece
with a twenty twenty five NFL Draft Day three pick
announcement live from Athens.
Speaker 3 (10:38):
Oh, live from the Parthenon. Where else are you gonna go?
Right now?
Speaker 2 (10:45):
I've got to believe there's an opening here for you.
I know you have not been back to Greece in
quite some time.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
It's been a while. My brother's there right now, Brother
Tasso's with my nephew Christas out there right now in Athens.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Like why would how would Why wouldn't there'd be a
running back camp.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
You know, well you could run maybe with a Hank
Bauer or with a Greek Petro cycle maybe assist. Yeah. Right,
here's the thing that that interested me.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
Why don't you get over there for that Day three pick.
Instead of going to the Queen Mary or to the
my Thai Bar, the Disneyland, the Disneyland, or to the Pier,
we go to Athens. That's where we have the Petros
and money live draft party.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
Direct flight. I'd go. They sent me on a direct
flight seats planted. Now, Matt, the thing that jumped out
to me not to be negative. I mean, because I
know this Sponos is a Greek of course. I mean
when I was a kid and we'd go to Greece,
there was five million Greeks, and now there's you know,
ten million in Greece that maybe they're not all Greeks,
(11:59):
but mostly those ten million people in Greece, and and
that you know that not not exactly a place you'd
be like, you know, one of them. It's like we're
going to do the show in Chico, you know, sure?
Uh do you know how many people live in Mexico
considerably more one hundred and twenty seven million. Yeah, Brazil
where you're going, yeah, two hundred and eleven million. That's right.
(12:24):
So the Spanos's are starting out small. They're they're crawling
in their international market before they walk. Birthplace is sport
p Well, that's true, you know, just I mean I
think the way they figure it is, Hey, in Mexico,
they'll find us. In Brazil, they're going to find us.
(12:45):
In Greece, we're going to find that we're going to
be discovered we're going to find putting ourselves in front
of that.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
No.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
I get it. I get it, and I understand why
they did it. They're Greek, that's right, you know. But
it just feels like, you know, it feels like it
feels like every Greek thing ever. You know, me trying
to explain why the Greeks are so important and no
one else caring. But I appreciate your important. I mean,
I appreciate you saying that, Matt and planting the seeds.
If we do go, I would like to stay at
(13:13):
the Grand Britannia Hotel in Tintagma Square in Athens, and
my second choice would be the Athens Plaza, And the
third choice is the Kilton, the Athens Kilton.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
Is that right?
Speaker 3 (13:25):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
I believe you're going to be staying at the childhood
home of Alex Carris.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
I guess I could stay with my brother's ex in laws.
I don't know. There you go. Song of the Day.
This is the song of the day.
Speaker 5 (13:43):
Today's song of the Day is called Tijuana Taxi from composer,
record producer, jazz trumpeter and bandleader Herb Alpert. Working our
way through an i'mo horse modello meet you a lot
of Monday is what we're doing where the Petros and
Money Show is carving a safe path into three hours

Atlanta Braves in town for three games and coming up

Morongo Casino Dodgers on deck show.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Thank you for being.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
Here, at you running.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
I mean, I'd wear a toga with you if the
Spanos family wanted, and we'd stand there with our olive
wreathed heads. At the Parthenon. I'm gonna chuck John.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
I'm gonna text John Spinals on the break Hey Outside
Show live from Appen tell him, tell.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
Him if he wants to go super cool, just a
two hour drive down to not too. We could do
it from the Paddo Medi. That would be pretty I
mean that, let's go. Maybe we do one pick from
the Parthenon and one pick from the Polo Medi, one
pick from Cape Sounion, one pick from Nemea, the House
of Hercules.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
I'm gonna do a pick from one of those spots
that I put my feet in the bowl of fish
and they bite up all my my dead skin.
Speaker 3 (14:55):
Plenty of those available to you. Matt. We'll be right back.
We'll go down too, dul yak many for that Petrosen Money,
petro Send Money show, houtla. Everybody on a modello means
a lot of Monday. It's not a real meat if
it's not made with MODELO or a reward for those
(15:18):
with a fighting spirit, the mark of a fighter. Dodgers
Braves coming up, Dodgers on deck at six, first pitch
at seven to ten. We are in the vortex of
the Dodgers season and what a fun season it promises
to be. Hashtag fun. Brett Boone is going to join
us in the next hour from the Brett Boone Podcast
to talk more baseball, and we're happy to be here
(15:41):
on a Monday. We'll be here all week. Same show
schedule tomorrow and this has been scheduled talk on the
Petrosen Money Show on a seventy LA Sports. You're home
of the Dodge. But now it's time for the top
story of the day, Top story of it.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
Well with Brett Boone coming up in the next hour.
David Vassa with the day off and the Dodgers taking
on the Braves and what some project will be in
NLCS preview tonight. Let's get a little baseball in here.
Pick a lane, Dodger fans, pick a lane? Which one
do you want? Because whichever one it is, you bet
you're ass The Dodgers are the pace car, pacing everybody else.
(16:24):
We start with pitching tonight, pee, because it is the
debut of an individual that we have done nothing but
celebrate since his arrival in Los Angeles via and interaction
scheduled through a celebrity in Nashville, Tennessee, courtesy of our
intrepid Dodger sports reporter David Vassay. Yes, Tyler Glass now
(16:49):
makes his twenty twenty five debut tonight, the same Tyler
Glass now of the glorious locks, the beautifully pitched pectorials,
the sculpted abs, and the perfectly symmetrical nips that we
saw guide the Dodgers through three rounds of the postseasons.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
Out by God, carved out by God in Santa Clarita,
hard High, Let's go Indian.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
I don't know if two humans gave birth to him
or he was created by Michael Angelo.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
My goodness, he's created in a hard high athlete bladder room.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
What a specimen like the mat just now and his
nips and his abs will make their debut tonight. One
of the top five favorites to win the National League
PSI Young Award and the Dodgers have already played five games,
and yet he has not pitched one until he will
tonight in Game six. Blake Snell Yoshi Yamamoto, rookie Sasaki
(17:50):
at a bumpy ride to start of the weekend here
in the States following a solid start in Japan, but
his team picked him up. Team picked him up. Now
tomorrow we'll get Dustin, who might have the best ross
stuff of all these guys. Oh, he's got the best stuff.
And after Yamamoto, the one that I would want to
be at the ballpark to see in person, most not
including Otani of course. Who is going to pitch this year?
(18:10):
You bet your ass you're gonna get a good twenty
starts out of that guy. So if you want a
team with pitching, it's not close, not close. Now the
Braves are in town. They got Chris Sale when he
comes back. Spencer Strider great Philadelphia Phillies with Aaron Nola,
Zach Wheeler. I believe Wheeler is the odds on favorite
to win the cy Young that you're very impressive.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
And I know David Vassey.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
Has tucked up the Diamondbucks with that guy fat and
that is interesting. But it's not the sizzle combined with
the steak that's the steak the Dodgers have. This said,
the Dodgers have the steak of Blake Snell, they got
the steak of Tyler Glassnew but they got the sizzle
as well, with Yamamoto and Sasaki and Dustin May and
(18:56):
even after that, the greatness of Otani and the legend
that is Kershaw. You got it all steak and sizzle,
not all sizzle, no steak, not all steak, no sizzle.
And the bullpen. I mean, look, if you want juice,
she got juice. Bonda laid. Yes, they do, and so
do the gays, not just the ladies. Well, you know, mad,
(19:18):
that's a wide highway.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
It is.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
There's Scott All throwing flames and Michael Kopek throws harder
than any of them and he hasn't even taken them
ound yet this year.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
Throwing flames.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Yeah, they strike guys out. And if that's not your bag,
guess what you got? Freaking VESSI out there. It looks
like he's on a Tony Montana Mountain of cookey red
bull straight to the freaking order.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
Again.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
When the starter gets yanked, typically you lose a little interest.
But as you said, the ladies and the Gaye swoon.
Speaker 3 (19:57):
The Dodger's bullpen is all flamed up.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Yeah, I mean he might be the most handsome gentleman
on the team. You got the punch the clock, blue
collar boys, their workmanlike approach and they're you know, more
workmen like dad bods Tanner Scott and Kirby Yates, Blake
Trining of course to kind of keep things settled. The
name that you know, not a new dude. And everyone
(20:20):
gets geeked when Kopek gets out there because he's throwing
a hundred two freaking miles an hour. So you got
that covered. And I know, would be cool if they
had the trumpet guy, the met Scott, but maybe something
like that'll emerge. I mean, when you don't have a
designated closer, it's kind of hard to say, hey man,
I want you know, can you get me the imagined dragons?
(20:43):
Like when I come out of the ball, We're like, well,
if you come out in the sixth Innian And I
don't know if we really want to, you know, play
that Barada, but it'd be nice if they had it,
if they had a Trevor Hassman Hell's Bells, And if
one of these guys e Mergers is a closer, maybe
we'll get something.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
It doesn't seem like that's what they want, no, which
I think is the only thing. You don't get a song, Matt, right,
that's all you don't get. You get everything else, you
don't get a song. I'd like a song, especially for me.
You seem a little bit greedy, man. I mean you
just named like ever, you said all their names, You
talked about how the Dodgers are, you said the names
of some of the opponents that the Dodgers have. You
(21:20):
mentioned skinny Chris Sale. But what you've not done at
all is just show any gratitude. And you're still you're
still asking, well, you want a guy to come out,
or you want a special song if it was pain
or whatever the hell that song is by imagined Dragons.
I reject the idea of a bass closer that comes
(21:41):
out and closes all the games of the night thinning
would I would rather the Dodgers do it like they
did it, because that led to their World Series victory
and a plethora of money. Maybe not hardware for the station,
but certainly a plethora of money for all of us.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
If they came out to like ELO's telephone line.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
Well, I mean that would be a little bit more.
I mean what I'm saying is, I just don't think
you're gonna get it, Matt, which I believe, which I
believe we're making anyone.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
Of course, they have the bats too. Holy ell, you
got four guys with an OPS over one thousand. Mooki
is sniffing two thousand at eighteen oh six. That's ridiculous.
He's slugging twelve fifty. Yeah, it's only two games, but hey,
we'll take those two games. After Mooky told us I
feel stronger than ever, we said that sounds ridiculous. Look
at him, he's gone. Well, joke's on us as usual,
(22:31):
zero strikeouts and eight at bats. Freddie Freeman zero strikeouts
and twelve at bats. His OPS is ten eighty three,
as slug as eight thirty three. He's got two homers
and ten total basis. Will Smith, who was in a
freaking funk last season, blazing out of the gates in
his five games four to seventeen.
Speaker 3 (22:48):
Average in a concussed fog.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
Exactly right, and it appears as though that fog is lifted.
The sun has burned it off. Five walks to lead
the uh on base category, getting on six out of
every ten trips to the plate. And everybody knows we've
been on Will Smith since day one. And of course
Shoe Otani, who's twelve hundred ops with his team best
(23:11):
six hits, two of them dongers. Everybody expected and he delivered,
and that's not easy to do when the expectations are high.
And while he's not over one thousand ops. Tommy Edmond
leads the team in total bases with fourteen, leads the
team of three home runs, and ta Oscar leads the
team of six ribbies. That's six names, six names. You
got two guys that got to pick it up. Muncie
(23:32):
one for eighteen, Pahez three for fifteen, each of them
with nine strikeouts. But may the clutch hitting if you
fell asleep on Friday night after the Tigers score two
on the top of the tenth, for shame. This team
is not going to go one hundred and sixty two
and zero.
Speaker 3 (23:44):
But they could. They won't, they could, but they could.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
We talked about this as it relates to UCLA basketball
and whether or not it is a brand or a
style of play that people can get behind. And perhaps
that's one of the reasons the quests at an iconic
venue like Polly Pavilion, when you play one hundred and
sixty two games a year and you're trying to sell
fifty five thousand tickets to eighty one of them Dodger Stadium,
the situation of Ingress and Egress onto Sunset Boulevard or
(24:14):
Stadium Way, or onto the five or the one to ten,
it's a disaster. And it's one thing to win and
feel good about a team that's going to post ninety
or maybe ninety five because of the way they're constructed.
It's another thing to do it like this, Yes, like this,
to feel like if you were in the park, you
watch something special, a team that you were going to
talk about a long time from now being the best
team I ever done did see play in a baseball stadium.
(24:37):
It's only five games, but it's five games against some
really good pitching, two teams that are projected to be
in the postseason, and whatever answers they thought they had
for the Dodgers, they still came up one or two
short and ended up walking out having been swept. Will
it catch up with them? Eh?
Speaker 3 (24:52):
I don't know. Maybe not.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
I don't think they can win one hundred and sixty
two games, but they might. Well.
Speaker 3 (24:56):
Don't stop saying that it's ridiculou they sound like vic
but they might.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
By the big news today be I saw, and I
think it's he could lose tonight. They could lose tonight.
Speaker 3 (25:08):
But will they perhaps? I saw.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
Today's big headline surrounding the team was that they had
six players in the top twenty Jersey sales, three out
of the top four, five of the top eleven, six
of the top sixteen. And if you were to try
to guess which names were in there, my god, it
would it'd be impossible, David Vasse told us, especially the
(25:33):
one like you got the obvious ones right. It is
great to see that Freddie Freeman's number two after his
Game one heroics in the World Series. Of course, Sotani's
number one, Mookie Betts's number four, Yamamoto's in there.
Speaker 3 (25:46):
But the big surprise, and Vasse told us. Let me
tell you something. Kick K can't walk around the streets
in Japan. He's a star.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
Hernandez is a superstar playing for the Dodgers. He is
sixteenth overall in Major League Baseball Jersey sales. And then
still somehow, and I don't know, maybe they're just buying
like the Dodger Gold, Clayton Kershaw. Clayton Kershaw is still
clocking in at number eleven, and maybe that's people just recognizing,
you know what. I don't know about this Yamamoto. I
(26:16):
don't know about this Sasaki. Maybe I'll just play it
safe and get the Kershaw Gold, or get the Garvy Gold,
or get the Kofax gold, or get the Robinson. They
can't go wrong there. You never want to be too early.
Nothing wrong with being too late when it comes to
purchasing a legend Dodgers Jersey.
Speaker 3 (26:35):
Save your money and send your kids to college.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
But not a bad idea. Yeah, you know, maybe a
little bootleg on the Etsy or something like that. Now,
let somebody here brush it. They got their rings Friday,
they got their rookie on Saturday. Opening Day of course,
was Thursday.
Speaker 3 (26:49):
Tonight.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
Finally we get nips and abs to remind everybody that
you got at least three and when Otani comes back
for his first start, four number one starters in this rotation,
meaning whatever night you pick to go to Dodger Stadium,
whoever is going to take that ball as a starter,
is going to be pretty freaking special and worth whatever
you're paying for that ticket, or at least the majority
of what you paid for that ticket.
Speaker 3 (27:11):
You've heard of TNA tonight, NNA. That's right, David Vasse.
We'll have Dodger Talk tonight, Tim Tates. We'll have Marango
Casino Dodgers on deck, and we're gonna have a conversation
with Brett Boone about the bats and how good this
Dodger team really is after what we've seen after opening
Day here in Los Angeles. A lot of fireworks, a
(27:33):
lot of fun, a lot of torpedo style bat love.
We'll be right back with Mark Great Sports doc on
Amy seventy LA Sports, your Home of the Dodgers. Some
listener reaction, next, Petro some money.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
Hey, I'm five seventy ELI Sports Live everywhere on the
iHeartRadio at Clippers playing on our sister station, AM eleven
fifty right now against the magic, because we've got Dodger
Bay tonight as they try, as they try to stay perfect.
It'll be the debut of Tyler Glass now going up
against the Braves. First pitch just after seven pm. Dodgers
on deck a little bit more than an hour away
(28:13):
six pm here on your home of those World Series
champion Dodgers and five seventy LA Sports.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
All right, Matt, we have some reaction to things that
have been going on during the show in the first
couple hours. And it's been a good show, I think,
especially with Steve Hartman coming on early talking about getting
in a fight with Vince Neil LeBlanc, Matt LeBlanc, Anthony
Edwards and Grant show at a bar in Willow Springs,
(28:39):
Lancaster area.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
That was a very high out of the show. And
they were so far well that isn't straight out the gate.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
You know that. And we had some good Page Becker's knowledge.
But here we go, secret text us a fine brought
to you by your so called Toyota dealers. We make
it easy. I mean, what about that women's hoops thing?
All right? This says it is, Hey, Petros, we gotta
get Hartman on the show on a weekly basis as
(29:05):
a call in or in studio or something. He's got
to be on the show. Somebody needs to make it happen.
He was on the show.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
Yeah, and he said he's gonna come on the show
and ever and we have him on, not regularly, but occasionally.
I don't think there's anything wrong with checking in weekly
with Hartman.
Speaker 3 (29:22):
We can call him right now. No, we already had
no that we had him on last hour. We're gonna
check in with Steve every hour to make sure he's there.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
I'm ready to go. Try to schedule a breakfast. It's
been canceled three times. What's going on with your boss?
Speaker 3 (29:35):
I need to talk to I am baby, Come and
take me Old Royd Rage. Hartman got into a fight
hanging out with Vince Neil Good Lord. Was Paul Hogan
Crocodile Dundee there too?

Lord and Lizabeth. I'm coming somewhere at Melbourne. Paul Hogan,
Crocodile Dundee. Lord, I'm not gonna let you say a
word at him. I mean, I'm not gonna let you
call this at all. I'm gonna say a bunch of
old references. Bank make night, Thank you, Stacy Stacy King
(30:07):
calling the Josh Giddy three pointer beyond half court shot
to beat the Lakers is one of It's a prime
example of what not to do. But yet in Chicago
they eat it up like a hot dog at Wiener Circle.
It is, it's amazing. Two seconds. Tell you for the.
Speaker 6 (30:29):
Fine, I kidnes believe it.
Speaker 3 (30:42):
No magic. Good day, mate. Somewhere in Australian said he

Speaker 6 (31:03):
Josh, it's the lay cards, not the hard This is unbelievable.
Embrace this team. I'm telling you Ranch tickets not the
same team. You better embrace them. Get your tickets wild.
(31:23):
This is a special team. I'm noteth.
Speaker 3 (31:28):
What's kiddy she in the plan? Uh? Ten games under
five hundred, everybody? Poor Adam, I mean yeah, Vince Neil
shouldn't get butt hurt for being laughed at, for losing
his voice. Buster Poindexter paid harder for his Petro said,
Buddy mentioned that's terrible. You guys are awful, awful people.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
It's just coincidence, folks, That's all it is.
Speaker 3 (31:55):
I often love Double Dragon. I'm going to my shed
and bringing out my any I'm to ignore my family
for a bit.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
You go do that, sir, You would I mean you
put that thing on story mode and you would disappear
for six to eight hours.
Speaker 3 (32:08):
This says, oh, corrections, corrections, and retraction. Tighten it up. Smith.
Kung Fu was the Nintendo game where you had to
make your way up the floors of the tower game
of Death Style. Karate Champs was the game where you
were looking for when you said point red. Yes, everyone
finally remembers Karate Champs. When Jin Glad van Tam was
(32:31):
dominated in the arcade Machine in Blood.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
Sport, Yes, thank you, sir, I will accept that criticism.
Karate Champ is exactly what I was going for, thank you.
Speaker 3 (32:40):
The only reason Steve got third in that race was
that he was in last and everyone in front of
him crashed or died. It is kind of interesting that
we used to put celebrities behind the wheels of in
the mid nineties of indie cars and they like continuously
crashed and like had bad injuries, like Priestley exploded into
(33:02):
a thousand pieces and they quit the rays head and
that it was gonna pretty amazing.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
Yeah, Yeah, we're gonna drop you guys, and you're gonna
go between eighty and one hundred miles an hour around
this track. It's gonna be great, and we're gonna train
you for like five days. It's gonna be great. And
you might get into a fight because people in Lancaster
kind of a holes, but I love them. I love
the people of.
Speaker 3 (33:23):
Another correction, my bad corrections and retractions. You pure ho Petros.
She spells it Bulcher's but pronounces it like the surf
brand Becker. Damn it, I got it wrong. The chick
from Yukon, and it's also spoke Compton not Spokane. Damn
(33:44):
that last one.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
I'm not so sure.
Speaker 3 (33:45):
I'm sorry about the women's basketball. We'll be back with

Up You're home of the World Series Champion. Dodgers back
in action tonight. After a day off yesterday, No day
off for David Veasse. He and taoskar Hernandez out at
the Ralph Laurent Polo store at the Citadel. No rest
for the weirdy and he's right back at it tonight.
Dodg You know what they said, they said. If you
say Ralph Lauren they fire you there. That's what a
(01:11):
social Matt said, Like they're so such sticklers at Ralph
Lauren about not saying, Ralph Lauren, y will fire you
on the on site. That's what social media Matt said.
But it was a very big event, very popular. Tell
mister I love his work.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Oh no, they had not one Matt, but two giant
size anthropomorphic Ralph Lauren bear mascots, both dudes, not like
Joe and Josephine Juke bruin, both dudes taking pictures with
Teal Scarr and.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Dave standard Ralph Lauren bear sweater.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
And I think it was the blazer. Oh wow, Yeah,
dressed up for the occasional blue blazer with the yellow buttons.
Ralph Lauren beautiful. If you say the other way, Lauren,
they fire you on the spot, like Sophia Lren correct,
but it's Ralph Lauren incorrect. What if I say, hey man,
you got some of them chaps around here? Then they
(02:11):
stream you up. It bleeds you like an animal if
you do that.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
But the Dodgers play baseball tonight. They did not play yesterday.
A rare Sunday off.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
All right, Matt, we have a word of the day
his words the word of the day. The word of
the day today Matt is battlefield promotion. Yes, Stanford and
has hired an interim coach for one season because Andrew Luck,
(02:51):
the new GM of Stanford Football, had to fire Troy Taylor,
Stanford head coach, for being well, uncouth or uncouth. I
don't really know how uncouth he was, you know.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
It sounds like he was just kind of an a hole.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
Yeah. Somebody said he was an equal opportunity ahole, And
I mean I've seen a lot of a hole coaches.
Does it get you fired? Well, apparently these days at
Stanford it does not if you're winning. Stanford is hiring
former NFL head coach Frank Reich as its interim head coach.
(03:31):
According to Pete Fammel, who broke the news, he has
been brevetted and received a battlefield promotion from Andrew Lucky
Stanford GM. Now don't you have didn't you come across?
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Now?
Speaker 3 (03:49):
I know they have a uh they have a connection
through the Colts, right, But yes, But Frank Reich was
at the Chargers for a second, wasn't he He was
the OC.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Yeah, he was the OC for the Chargers before he
became the head coach of the Colts and then the
head coach of the Panthers for a brief time. He's
you know, he's he's a lifer. It's one of those
dudes that's in and obviously was the backup quarterback in Buffalo.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
Yeah, he's the one that won the championship game. That
was the the war comeback, not the championship game, the
playoff game. That was the biggest comeback in the history
of the NFL playoffs. I think it was thirty five
to seven Oilers Buffalo Bills Oilers in Buffalo. Not Jim
Kelly at quarterback, but the backup quarterback, Frank Reich, who
(04:43):
led I remember watching that live too, who led them
back back back to victory. But he's going to be
the Stanford guy for a year, and then they're going
to conduct a national search. And the first thing I
thought was, what if what if Stanford has like a
renaissance year under Reich and blows up the ACC Will
(05:05):
they will they bring him back?
Speaker 1 (05:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (05:09):
I don't know, but Captain Luck Andrew Luck has a
battlefield promoted Frank Reich, an old friend, to be the
head coach at Stanford.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Pretty exatulations to Frank, I'm the hell of a coach.
Easip Rivers one of Philip rivers favorite. I think he
was the quarterback coach.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
There was a time that he was a real hot
NFL coach. Yes, and he's like sixty three years old now.
Former Maryland turp Frank Reich.
Speaker 4 (05:41):
It looks like Frank Reich and Andrew Luck crossed pass
at Indy for one year two thousand and eight.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
But there's still BFFs apparently.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
Because Luck out there just when he left in his
first time Frank Reich and then when Wright came back
to be head coach in eighteen, that was Andrew Luck's
last year.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
Typically doesn't well when you just hire guys you know,
or you're bringing players that.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
I remember when I remember when Baylor had that big
problem with Art Briles and they brought in Jim Grobe
for the one year, remember, and he came after the
spring kind of thing, and they had to fire Art Briles.
And I remember doing a Baylor game that year and
they were like, the only coach you can talk to
is Grobe. They're like, okay, so we talked to because
(06:26):
all the assistants were still Briles guys and We're like, Okay,
what's up with this team? Grobe. He's like, Wow, I
don't really know these guys. And it's like literally every
question we asked was like that. It was the weird
the weirdest thing. And then I was out to dinner
in West Virginia and one of the Baylor assistants caught
up to me. He was like, this is bees. They
won't even let us bake. I was just like, this
is the worst this situation I've ever heard. I don't
(06:49):
think it'll be like that, but that speaks to the
dysfunction that you're talking about. Andrew Luck seems to be
a pretty smart guy, and his father, of course, Oliver,
with a long history and aministration for athletic businesses in
schools and companies and things like that. Maybe he knows
Frank Reich's the guy to stabilize it for a year.
(07:10):
Or maybe Stanford will be like they always aren't win
two games and totally suck. There could be that as well.
Here's my number number of the day.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
Kate's not sure if you saw my text. Hopefully you
did it. You did. Today's number of the day is
Greek news.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
That's right, we did hear about this. Kate's tried to
get into the text. My apologies, No, that's okay, I
mean there is this is this is an interesting move
because because you don't expect the country of Greece, which
hasn't really been relevant for about three thousand years, to
get any love Greek news news that is Greek invented
(07:52):
Demontcresci and were the first people who you know, we
seek now here's Petros Pappa the headline, take it away back.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Los Angeles Chargers join NFL Global Markets Program, awarded international
marketing rights to Greece, their first international market, with all
of Mexico and the Central American countries and the South
American countries and Australia and the Pacific Rim all made available.
(08:28):
Almost feels like the triumvirent of Dean ag and John
Spinhaus were like, no, if you're not going to open Greece,
we're going to hold out until you open Greece and
then we'll start participating. And these international marketing rights deals, Okay,
show our homeland some respect and love that it deserves.
(08:50):
And the quote the homeland of my family, Greece is
left an eternal imprint on my heart. Eternal When the
opportunity to grow NFL football in the Los Angeles Chargers
brand and Greece presented itself, we simply could.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
Not pass it up. It's awesome.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
This is the best quote ever with ancient Greece. Sounds
like your father.
Speaker 3 (09:13):
Yeah, well, that's how Greeks have an epic way of spiking.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
Home to the first recorded Olympic Games in seven to
seventy six BC and host of the inaugural Summer Olympics
in eighteen ninety six, it seems only natural to bring
what I consider to be the best game in the
world to quite literally the birthplace of sport. We couldn't
be more excited to connect with Greeks from all walks
of life, make an impact on their communities, and share
(09:38):
our passion for the game we love. Now here's the
key one. You know, when you're the international marketing rights partner,
oftentimes you're going to jump to the front of the
line to play a game there, but good luck beyond that.
(10:02):
What you're doing is really spreading the game of American
football over the course of the off season. So the
Chargers will host youth camps and clinics. They'll probably get
a little NFL flag football going over there.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
Gotta do that, except the flag as a napkin in
the restaurant. In the ball, there's a goat bladder.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
The Chargers will officially kick off their efforts in Greece
with a twenty twenty five NFL Draft Day three pick
announcement live from Athens.
Speaker 3 (10:38):
Oh, live from the Parthenon. Where else are you gonna go?
Right now?
Speaker 2 (10:45):
I've got to believe there's an opening here for you.
I know you have not been back to Greece in
quite some time.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
It's been a while. My brother's there right now, Brother
Tasso's with my nephew Christas out there right now in Athens.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Like why would how would Why wouldn't there'd be a
running back camp.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
You know, well you could run maybe with a Hank
Bauer or with a Greek Petro cycle maybe assist. Yeah. Right,
here's the thing that that interested me.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
Why don't you get over there for that Day three pick.
Instead of going to the Queen Mary or to the
my Thai Bar, the Disneyland, the Disneyland, or to the Pier,
we go to Athens. That's where we have the Petros
and money live draft party.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
Direct flight. I'd go. They sent me on a direct
flight seats planted. Now, Matt, the thing that jumped out
to me not to be negative. I mean, because I
know this Sponos is a Greek of course. I mean
when I was a kid and we'd go to Greece,
there was five million Greeks, and now there's you know,
ten million in Greece that maybe they're not all Greeks,
(11:59):
but mostly those ten million people in Greece, and and
that you know that not not exactly a place you'd
be like, you know, one of them. It's like we're
going to do the show in Chico, you know, sure?
Uh do you know how many people live in Mexico
considerably more one hundred and twenty seven million. Yeah, Brazil
where you're going, yeah, two hundred and eleven million. That's right.
(12:24):
So the Spanos's are starting out small. They're they're crawling
in their international market before they walk. Birthplace is sport
p Well, that's true, you know, just I mean I
think the way they figure it is, Hey, in Mexico,
they'll find us. In Brazil, they're going to find us.
(12:45):
In Greece, we're going to find that we're going to
be discovered we're going to find putting ourselves in front
of that.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
No.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
I get it. I get it, and I understand why
they did it. They're Greek, that's right, you know. But
it just feels like, you know, it feels like it
feels like every Greek thing ever. You know, me trying
to explain why the Greeks are so important and no
one else caring. But I appreciate your important. I mean,
I appreciate you saying that, Matt and planting the seeds.
If we do go, I would like to stay at
(13:13):
the Grand Britannia Hotel in Tintagma Square in Athens, and
my second choice would be the Athens Plaza, And the
third choice is the Kilton, the Athens Kilton.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
Is that right?
Speaker 3 (13:25):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
I believe you're going to be staying at the childhood
home of Alex Carris.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
I guess I could stay with my brother's ex in laws.
I don't know. There you go. Song of the Day.
This is the song of the day.
Speaker 5 (13:43):
Today's song of the Day is called Tijuana Taxi from composer,
record producer, jazz trumpeter and bandleader Herb Alpert. Working our

Thank you for being.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
Here, at you running.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
I mean, I'd wear a toga with you if the
Spanos family wanted, and we'd stand there with our olive
wreathed heads. At the Parthenon. I'm gonna chuck John.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
I'm gonna text John Spinals on the break Hey Outside
Show live from Appen tell him, tell.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
Him if he wants to go super cool, just a
two hour drive down to not too. We could do
it from the Paddo Medi. That would be pretty I
mean that, let's go. Maybe we do one pick from
the Parthenon and one pick from the Polo Medi, one
pick from Cape Sounion, one pick from Nemea, the House
of Hercules.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
I'm gonna do a pick from one of those spots
that I put my feet in the bowl of fish
and they bite up all my my dead skin.
Speaker 3 (14:55):
Plenty of those available to you. Matt. We'll be right back.
We'll go down too, dul yak many for that Petrosen Money,
petro Send Money show, houtla. Everybody on a modello means
a lot of Monday. It's not a real meat if
it's not made with MODELO or a reward for those
(15:18):
with a fighting spirit, the mark of a fighter. Dodgers
Braves coming up, Dodgers on deck at six, first pitch
at seven to ten. We are in the vortex of
the Dodgers season and what a fun season it promises
to be. Hashtag fun. Brett Boone is going to join
us in the next hour from the Brett Boone Podcast
to talk more baseball, and we're happy to be here
(15:41):
on a Monday. We'll be here all week. Same show
schedule tomorrow and this has been scheduled talk on the
Petrosen Money Show on a seventy LA Sports. You're home
of the Dodge. But now it's time for the top
story of the day, Top story of it.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
Well with Brett Boone coming up in the next hour.
David Vassa with the day off and the Dodgers taking
on the Braves and what some project will be in
NLCS preview tonight. Let's get a little baseball in here.
Pick a lane, Dodger fans, pick a lane? Which one
do you want? Because whichever one it is, you bet
you're ass The Dodgers are the pace car, pacing everybody else.
(16:24):
We start with pitching tonight, pee, because it is the
debut of an individual that we have done nothing but
celebrate since his arrival in Los Angeles via and interaction
scheduled through a celebrity in Nashville, Tennessee, courtesy of our
intrepid Dodger sports reporter David Vassay. Yes, Tyler Glass now
(16:49):
makes his twenty twenty five debut tonight, the same Tyler
Glass now of the glorious locks, the beautifully pitched pectorials,
the sculpted abs, and the perfectly symmetrical nips that we
saw guide the Dodgers through three rounds of the postseasons.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
Out by God, carved out by God in Santa Clarita,
hard High, Let's go Indian.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
I don't know if two humans gave birth to him
or he was created by Michael Angelo.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
My goodness, he's created in a hard high athlete bladder room.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
What a specimen like the mat just now and his
nips and his abs will make their debut tonight. One
of the top five favorites to win the National League
PSI Young Award and the Dodgers have already played five games,
and yet he has not pitched one until he will
tonight in Game six. Blake Snell Yoshi Yamamoto, rookie Sasaki
(17:50):
at a bumpy ride to start of the weekend here
in the States following a solid start in Japan, but
his team picked him up. Team picked him up. Now
tomorrow we'll get Dustin, who might have the best ross
stuff of all these guys. Oh, he's got the best stuff.
And after Yamamoto, the one that I would want to
be at the ballpark to see in person, most not
including Otani of course. Who is going to pitch this year?
(18:10):
You bet your ass you're gonna get a good twenty
starts out of that guy. So if you want a
team with pitching, it's not close, not close. Now the
Braves are in town. They got Chris Sale when he
comes back. Spencer Strider great Philadelphia Phillies with Aaron Nola,
Zach Wheeler. I believe Wheeler is the odds on favorite
to win the cy Young that you're very impressive.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
And I know David Vassey.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
Has tucked up the Diamondbucks with that guy fat and
that is interesting. But it's not the sizzle combined with
the steak that's the steak the Dodgers have. This said,
the Dodgers have the steak of Blake Snell, they got
the steak of Tyler Glassnew but they got the sizzle
as well, with Yamamoto and Sasaki and Dustin May and
(18:56):
even after that, the greatness of Otani and the legend
that is Kershaw. You got it all steak and sizzle,
not all sizzle, no steak, not all steak, no sizzle.
And the bullpen. I mean, look, if you want juice,
she got juice. Bonda laid. Yes, they do, and so
do the gays, not just the ladies. Well, you know, mad,
(19:18):
that's a wide highway.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
It is.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
There's Scott All throwing flames and Michael Kopek throws harder
than any of them and he hasn't even taken them
ound yet this year.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
Throwing flames.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Yeah, they strike guys out. And if that's not your bag,
guess what you got? Freaking VESSI out there. It looks
like he's on a Tony Montana Mountain of cookey red
bull straight to the freaking order.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
Again.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
When the starter gets yanked, typically you lose a little interest.
But as you said, the ladies and the Gaye swoon.
Speaker 3 (19:57):
The Dodger's bullpen is all flamed up.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Yeah, I mean he might be the most handsome gentleman
on the team. You got the punch the clock, blue
collar boys, their workmanlike approach and they're you know, more
workmen like dad bods Tanner Scott and Kirby Yates, Blake
Trining of course to kind of keep things settled. The
name that you know, not a new dude. And everyone
(20:20):
gets geeked when Kopek gets out there because he's throwing
a hundred two freaking miles an hour. So you got
that covered. And I know, would be cool if they
had the trumpet guy, the met Scott, but maybe something
like that'll emerge. I mean, when you don't have a
designated closer, it's kind of hard to say, hey man,
I want you know, can you get me the imagined dragons?
(20:43):
Like when I come out of the ball, We're like, well,
if you come out in the sixth Innian And I
don't know if we really want to, you know, play
that Barada, but it'd be nice if they had it,
if they had a Trevor Hassman Hell's Bells, And if
one of these guys e Mergers is a closer, maybe
we'll get something.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
It doesn't seem like that's what they want, no, which
I think is the only thing. You don't get a song, Matt, right,
that's all you don't get. You get everything else, you
don't get a song. I'd like a song, especially for me.
You seem a little bit greedy, man. I mean you
just named like ever, you said all their names, You
talked about how the Dodgers are, you said the names
of some of the opponents that the Dodgers have. You
(21:20):
mentioned skinny Chris Sale. But what you've not done at
all is just show any gratitude. And you're still you're
still asking, well, you want a guy to come out,
or you want a special song if it was pain
or whatever the hell that song is by imagined Dragons.
I reject the idea of a bass closer that comes
(21:41):
out and closes all the games of the night thinning
would I would rather the Dodgers do it like they
did it, because that led to their World Series victory
and a plethora of money. Maybe not hardware for the station,
but certainly a plethora of money for all of us.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
If they came out to like ELO's telephone line.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
Well, I mean that would be a little bit more.
I mean what I'm saying is, I just don't think
you're gonna get it, Matt, which I believe, which I
believe we're making anyone.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
Of course, they have the bats too. Holy ell, you
got four guys with an OPS over one thousand. Mooki
is sniffing two thousand at eighteen oh six. That's ridiculous.
He's slugging twelve fifty. Yeah, it's only two games, but hey,
we'll take those two games. After Mooky told us I
feel stronger than ever, we said that sounds ridiculous. Look
at him, he's gone. Well, joke's on us as usual,
(22:31):
zero strikeouts and eight at bats. Freddie Freeman zero strikeouts
and twelve at bats. His OPS is ten eighty three,
as slug as eight thirty three. He's got two homers
and ten total basis. Will Smith, who was in a
freaking funk last season, blazing out of the gates in
his five games four to seventeen.
Speaker 3 (22:48):
Average in a concussed fog.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
Exactly right, and it appears as though that fog is lifted.
The sun has burned it off. Five walks to lead
the uh on base category, getting on six out of
every ten trips to the plate. And everybody knows we've
been on Will Smith since day one. And of course
Shoe Otani, who's twelve hundred ops with his team best
(23:11):
six hits, two of them dongers. Everybody expected and he delivered,
and that's not easy to do when the expectations are high.
And while he's not over one thousand ops. Tommy Edmond
leads the team in total bases with fourteen, leads the
team of three home runs, and ta Oscar leads the
team of six ribbies. That's six names, six names. You
got two guys that got to pick it up. Muncie
(23:32):
one for eighteen, Pahez three for fifteen, each of them
with nine strikeouts. But may the clutch hitting if you
fell asleep on Friday night after the Tigers score two
on the top of the tenth, for shame. This team
is not going to go one hundred and sixty two
and zero.
Speaker 3 (23:44):
But they could. They won't, they could, but they could.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
We talked about this as it relates to UCLA basketball
and whether or not it is a brand or a
style of play that people can get behind. And perhaps
that's one of the reasons the quests at an iconic
venue like Polly Pavilion, when you play one hundred and
sixty two games a year and you're trying to sell
fifty five thousand tickets to eighty one of them Dodger Stadium,
the situation of Ingress and Egress onto Sunset Boulevard or
(24:14):
Stadium Way, or onto the five or the one to ten,
it's a disaster. And it's one thing to win and
feel good about a team that's going to post ninety
or maybe ninety five because of the way they're constructed.
It's another thing to do it like this, Yes, like this,
to feel like if you were in the park, you
watch something special, a team that you were going to
talk about a long time from now being the best
team I ever done did see play in a baseball stadium.
(24:37):
It's only five games, but it's five games against some
really good pitching, two teams that are projected to be
in the postseason, and whatever answers they thought they had
for the Dodgers, they still came up one or two
short and ended up walking out having been swept. Will
it catch up with them? Eh?
Speaker 3 (24:52):
I don't know. Maybe not.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
I don't think they can win one hundred and sixty
two games, but they might. Well.
Speaker 3 (24:56):
Don't stop saying that it's ridiculou they sound like vic
but they might.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
By the big news today be I saw, and I
think it's he could lose tonight. They could lose tonight.
Speaker 3 (25:08):
But will they perhaps? I saw.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
Today's big headline surrounding the team was that they had
six players in the top twenty Jersey sales, three out
of the top four, five of the top eleven, six
of the top sixteen. And if you were to try
to guess which names were in there, my god, it
would it'd be impossible, David Vasse told us, especially the
(25:33):
one like you got the obvious ones right. It is
great to see that Freddie Freeman's number two after his
Game one heroics in the World Series. Of course, Sotani's
number one, Mookie Betts's number four, Yamamoto's in there.
Speaker 3 (25:46):
But the big surprise, and Vasse told us. Let me
tell you something. Kick K can't walk around the streets
in Japan. He's a star.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
Hernandez is a superstar playing for the Dodgers. He is
sixteenth overall in Major League Baseball Jersey sales. And then
still somehow, and I don't know, maybe they're just buying
like the Dodger Gold, Clayton Kershaw. Clayton Kershaw is still
clocking in at number eleven, and maybe that's people just recognizing,
you know what. I don't know about this Yamamoto. I
(26:16):
don't know about this Sasaki. Maybe I'll just play it
safe and get the Kershaw Gold, or get the Garvy Gold,
or get the Kofax gold, or get the Robinson. They
can't go wrong there. You never want to be too early.
Nothing wrong with being too late when it comes to
purchasing a legend Dodgers Jersey.
Speaker 3 (26:35):
Save your money and send your kids to college.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
But not a bad idea. Yeah, you know, maybe a
little bootleg on the Etsy or something like that. Now,
let somebody here brush it. They got their rings Friday,
they got their rookie on Saturday. Opening Day of course,
was Thursday.
Speaker 3 (26:49):
Tonight.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
Finally we get nips and abs to remind everybody that
you got at least three and when Otani comes back
for his first start, four number one starters in this rotation,
meaning whatever night you pick to go to Dodger Stadium,
whoever is going to take that ball as a starter,
is going to be pretty freaking special and worth whatever
you're paying for that ticket, or at least the majority
of what you paid for that ticket.
Speaker 3 (27:11):
You've heard of TNA tonight, NNA. That's right, David Vasse.
We'll have Dodger Talk tonight, Tim Tates. We'll have Marango
Casino Dodgers on deck, and we're gonna have a conversation
with Brett Boone about the bats and how good this
Dodger team really is after what we've seen after opening
Day here in Los Angeles. A lot of fireworks, a
(27:33):
lot of fun, a lot of torpedo style bat love.
We'll be right back with Mark Great Sports doc on
Amy seventy LA Sports, your Home of the Dodgers. Some
listener reaction, next, Petro some money.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
Hey, I'm five seventy ELI Sports Live everywhere on the
iHeartRadio at Clippers playing on our sister station, AM eleven
fifty right now against the magic, because we've got Dodger
Bay tonight as they try, as they try to stay perfect.
It'll be the debut of Tyler Glass now going up
against the Braves. First pitch just after seven pm. Dodgers
on deck a little bit more than an hour away
(28:13):
six pm here on your home of those World Series
champion Dodgers and five seventy LA Sports.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
All right, Matt, we have some reaction to things that
have been going on during the show in the first
couple hours. And it's been a good show, I think,
especially with Steve Hartman coming on early talking about getting
in a fight with Vince Neil LeBlanc, Matt LeBlanc, Anthony
Edwards and Grant show at a bar in Willow Springs,
(28:39):
Lancaster area.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
That was a very high out of the show. And
they were so far well that isn't straight out the gate.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
You know that. And we had some good Page Becker's knowledge.
But here we go, secret text us a fine brought
to you by your so called Toyota dealers. We make
it easy. I mean, what about that women's hoops thing?
All right? This says it is, Hey, Petros, we gotta
get Hartman on the show on a weekly basis as
(29:05):
a call in or in studio or something. He's got
to be on the show. Somebody needs to make it happen.
He was on the show.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
Yeah, and he said he's gonna come on the show
and ever and we have him on, not regularly, but occasionally.
I don't think there's anything wrong with checking in weekly
with Hartman.
Speaker 3 (29:22):
We can call him right now. No, we already had
no that we had him on last hour. We're gonna
check in with Steve every hour to make sure he's there.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
I'm ready to go. Try to schedule a breakfast. It's
been canceled three times. What's going on with your boss?
Speaker 3 (29:35):
I need to talk to I am baby, Come and
take me Old Royd Rage. Hartman got into a fight
hanging out with Vince Neil Good Lord. Was Paul Hogan
Crocodile Dundee there too?

Lord and Lizabeth. I'm coming somewhere at Melbourne. Paul Hogan,
Crocodile Dundee. Lord, I'm not gonna let you say a
word at him. I mean, I'm not gonna let you
call this at all. I'm gonna say a bunch of
old references. Bank make night, Thank you, Stacy Stacy King
(30:07):
calling the Josh Giddy three pointer beyond half court shot
to beat the Lakers is one of It's a prime
example of what not to do. But yet in Chicago
they eat it up like a hot dog at Wiener Circle.
It is, it's amazing. Two seconds. Tell you for the.
Speaker 6 (30:29):
Fine, I kidnes believe it.
Speaker 3 (30:42):
No magic. Good day, mate. Somewhere in Australian said he

Speaker 3 (31:00):
You just saw cell tickets now cell tickets.
Speaker 6 (31:03):
Josh, it's the lay cards, not the hard This is unbelievable.
Embrace this team. I'm telling you Ranch tickets not the
same team. You better embrace them. Get your tickets wild.
(31:23):
This is a special team. I'm noteth.
Speaker 3 (31:28):
What's kiddy she in the plan? Uh? Ten games under
five hundred, everybody? Poor Adam, I mean yeah, Vince Neil
shouldn't get butt hurt for being laughed at, for losing
his voice. Buster Poindexter paid harder for his Petro said,
Buddy mentioned that's terrible. You guys are awful, awful people.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
It's just coincidence, folks, That's all it is.
Speaker 3 (31:55):
I often love Double Dragon. I'm going to my shed
and bringing out my any I'm to ignore my family
for a bit.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
You go do that, sir, You would I mean you
put that thing on story mode and you would disappear
for six to eight hours.
Speaker 3 (32:08):
This says, oh, corrections, corrections, and retraction. Tighten it up. Smith.
Kung Fu was the Nintendo game where you had to
make your way up the floors of the tower game
of Death Style. Karate Champs was the game where you
were looking for when you said point red. Yes, everyone
finally remembers Karate Champs. When Jin Glad van Tam was
(32:31):
dominated in the arcade Machine in Blood.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
Sport, Yes, thank you, sir, I will accept that criticism.
Karate Champ is exactly what I was going for, thank you.
Speaker 3 (32:40):
The only reason Steve got third in that race was
that he was in last and everyone in front of
him crashed or died. It is kind of interesting that
we used to put celebrities behind the wheels of in
the mid nineties of indie cars and they like continuously
crashed and like had bad injuries, like Priestley exploded into
(33:02):
a thousand pieces and they quit the rays head and
that it was gonna pretty amazing.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
Yeah, Yeah, we're gonna drop you guys, and you're gonna
go between eighty and one hundred miles an hour around
this track. It's gonna be great, and we're gonna train
you for like five days. It's gonna be great. And
you might get into a fight because people in Lancaster
kind of a holes, but I love them. I love
the people of.
Speaker 3 (33:23):
Another correction, my bad corrections and retractions. You pure ho Petros.
She spells it Bulcher's but pronounces it like the surf
brand Becker. Damn it, I got it wrong. The chick
from Yukon, and it's also spoke Compton not Spokane. Damn
(33:44):
that last one.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
I'm not so sure.
Speaker 3 (33:45):
