That all year, good or bad, tried to be the same person and he was brutally honest. We asked how hard its been and he said really hard at times. I come to my office and give myself about 30 seconds to be upset and then i go in the clubhouse and make sure the guys are positive and ready for the next day. Theyre already better than they were last year in 2018. 47 wins and i will go out on a limb and say they win at least one more game, kenny. Kenny you think so . A. J. if they dont, what we just talked about, brandon hyde being upbeat every day, he might lose that feeling if they dont win another game the rest of the year. Kenny on the 22. A. J. i love this shot. Prospects are cool. And braids are cooler. And i love that, every team thinks they can do what the astros and cubs have done and turn it around but at the end of the day you need the prospects. When they turn into players like the royals, the astros and the cubs, then you get a parade. And those are way better. Kenny we can try to find a hitter is. What size, a. J. . A. J. i would be about that guys size. Kenny j. P. Talked about the success of the doublea affiliates socks and they are managed by buck britton. The brother of the closer with the yankees. And theyve done an outstanding job with the socks. A. J. and he can teach the prospects the sinker that his brother has, they will be on to something. One of the toughest relievers ive faced. Kenny santand two away. Buck britton was a second baseman and played in the orioles system and spent time in the dodgers organization. Back in 2015. A. J. the Minor League Development has become more and more important as more and more teams have tried to do the complete tear down and start over. So the development is the key. Yes, every team has prospects and players but who can develop them the best in and it seems teams, the orioles included, everything that jeff touches they want. Sean mcvay in the nfl. Everything he touches, all coaches now and the orioles have gone the astros out with mike elias and the g. M. , now here to try to get the orioles on the same path as the astros. Kenny by the way, buck britton own 33 years of age, managing. A. J. thats another trend. We showed percent of hits, and the managers and the coaches are getting younger and younger, not only at the Major League Level but also at the minor league leve level. Kenny the 11. A powering popup. Martin gets rid of his mask. Over the back stop and out of play. A. J. one of the things that brandon hyde said to us today. We asked about the analytics and he said were in the infancy stages because we really never had analytics until the last few years and he said we have to figure out how to get the information to use for players to make them better. And its a learning curve. Theyre gonna be presented with things they never had before and it takes players time to adjust. They all seem like theyre open to it.

Kenny top of the ninth in baltim top of the ninth in baltimore, 42 lead for the dodgers. Off for los angeles. Hernandez leading off for los angeles. Miguel castro, third orioles pitcher of the evening, retired both dodgers he faced to the eighth. The orioles lead 21 and the dodgers scored three runs in the top of the sixth dodgers scored three runs in the top of the sixth inning. 21 on hernandez. Two and one on hernandez. Kenny 21 from castro, fouls it back. 22. Klnl interesting, before that 21 pitch, Pedro Severino the it 21 castro, dials it back. Interesting, had castro shake his head twice to mess a little bit with hernandezs mind and went fastball away, a little trick to make the hitters think usually start with fastball. Hes doing it again. This time he wants a changeup. He actually is look to a changeup this time. Ny hernandez down on hernandez down on strikes, one away. Before time for our budweiser game summary with the dodgers leading 42. Rich hill, dodgers starter coming back from the injured list, left after six batters, Pedro Severino solo home run for the orioles in the fifth inning. Dylan bundy pitched well, allowed only two earned runs in 5 2 3 and then the dodgers would score three runs in the sixth to take the lead. An error and a fastball leading to two dodger runs. Dylan bundy really deserved better in this game. He pitched better than what that line and his fate was because of the error and the fastball. Those happen, yes. It still hurts as the pitcher, the way he was pitching, picked a good pitch here, gets a ground ball. Unfortunately not able to come up with it. Then the next batter he strikes out martin and hits past Pedro Severino. Two runs score. The frustration on his face, you can just see it. Kenny the second straight strikeout for castro. Two away here in the of the second straight strikeout for castro, two away here in the top of the ninth. Here comes brandon hyde. Castro retired all f s here comes brandon hyde.

The dodgers have won their te national le dodgers have won their seventh Straight National league title coming off two consecutive trips to the world series losing to the astros in 2017 and then the red sox in 2018. A. J. that is the will this be the dodgers year . That is the questions dodgers fans hope to answer. They certainly believe they have the time, finally get their first world series since 1988, but over the Atlanta Braves all those years we talked about won all those pennants and divisions and won one world series. It is hard to win a world series. Just because you get in, youre not guaranteed to win one. Left hander tanner scott in to face pederson who is 04 tonight. A. J. do they have enough . Thats kind of the question. Do they have nurve the Atlanta Braves, if you do they have enough . Thats kind of the question. Can he get back to the old Kenley Jansen who was so dominant . Braves people are talking about is a huge contender. For me, this is the key. Clayton kershaw, hyunjin ryu and Kenley Jansen. Can kershaw get over his demons in the post season . Hes struggled a little bit. And can ryu struggled n can kershaw get over his demons and Kenley Jansen has not been Kenley Jansen since last year. Theyve overused kenny. Hes been in the post season so much, pitched so many more innings. Ironically those are the only three dodgers who have been part of all seven National LeagueWest Division championship clubs.

Kenny 93 mileperhour fastball missing high, now one and two. Seep the cut on that ball . See how Russell Martin is targeting the ball and moved in on left hand hitters . They want to see this ball move into a lefty and late. It almost rises up into williams. I think Russell Martin and nley jansen i think Russell Martin and Kenley Jansen saw that curve ball as strike three. Russell martin went to throw it around and Kenley Jansen turned his back. Ball two said the home plate umpire. Honestly, too, his is the only opinion that matters. As you learned over 18 major league seasons. 19. Dont sell me short like that. I wasnt counting the rookie year. Full count. My first, the september call doesnt count . It does now with the service time the way the clubs manipulate service time. That september call definitely matters now. Now. D. J. Stewart on deck. 42 dodgers bottom of the ninth. Bottom of the ninth.

As Dwight Dwight smith, jr. Will pinchhit for Pedro Severino. We spoke with brandon we spoke with brandon hyde before the game. He said despite the huge negative run differential over the course of the season. Tonights a prime fourth runs score on a fastball. Absolutely. He said it. We were talking about this earlier. Every oriole fan that ive talked to said the team plays hard till the last night. Theyve done that tonight. They just come up short and its frustrating, but it is what it is. Its frustrating when youre in the middle of a rebuild. Youre going to have nights where things just dont go right. Its about moving and figuring out how to be a professional and a major league player. Lessons are hard especially when youre a bad team and i first came out with minnesota. We were really bad. Those lessons got us to where we could win Division Titles and have a chance where we could win in the post season. Kenny the dodgers clinched the division here on tuesday ni dodgers clinch the division here on tuesday night looking for win number 95. A. J. Kenley Jansen and Russell Martin behind the plate, its three or four balls now that holbrook as its about three or four balls sam holbrook have called.

Popped up. The dodgers win 42. Dodgers win it 42. They win the series two games to one. Clinch t division they clinch the division on tuesday night and tonight they win their 95th game of the season. Workmanlike win for the dodgers, scored just enough runs, pitching staff did a great job shutting down the orioles and for the orioles there will be brighter days in baltimore, just got to look for the positives. There are signs, but the dodgers win again and theyre off to the nl playoffs the seventh year in a row. Kenny dave roberts uses eight pitchers to dave roberts uses eight pitchers tonight. Jansen closes it out. Dodgers in 95 win. Thats important to all those teams on the least, especially the yankees and the dodgers. Those teams have been incredible at home and had home field advantages. It is is real in the post season. Bundy, the tough luck loss, Kenley Jansen with the save. His 29th. His 29th. Down to the field Russell Martin is with j. P. Reporter thank you, kenny. Rich hill is about as beloved a guy as there is on this team. How much concern was there for you seeing him struggle with that knee issue in the first inning . I really wasnt sure what was going on, but i did coon the ball and threw one pitch 88 miles an hour. So i was a little concerned right there, didnt really know what was going on, but its obviously im going back in and find out whats going on, but were a little bit disappointed for sure. Reporter on the Positive Side kenleys cutter in the ninth inning, what stood out to you there . We mixed it up a little bit. He threw a couple sliders in there, mixed in a two seamer. The cutter hasnt been as good as he would like it to be, but at the end he threw some really good ones right there. So i think were back on truck. Reporter finally, your 10th postseason coming up, what is special about this team . I mean theres a lot thats special. A lot of depth, you know, our starting pitchings amazing. Our defense is amazing. Our preparation, how we get ready for series, this is the best team ive been on when it comes to just transportation and stuff like that and hopefully the tenth one will be the and the canadian born catcher Russell Martin, martin behind the plate, eight dodger pitchers tonight allowed only two hits for the orioles, both in the fifth inning.
