piece to this Dodger rotation so he has
really grown over the year and
especially grown with his five pitch
repertoire learning about which ones
represent what as he wants to attack the
fourth hardest thrower in the big
leagues is a starting pitcher but you
don't rely on that because his two best
pitches are the curveball and the change
up C's best here in s sun setting sun
coming up where you are probably Dodgers
and team ker ready for first pitch
coming
up
US Territory and when you think about
Bobby Miller and they're thinking about
pushing him to five innings today well
that's not a big challenge other than
the fact that we're coming out of spring
training in 12 of his 22 starts last
year he went six plus Innings so he's
got the
endurance gong Kim stands in grounds the
first pitch of the game to Freddy
Freeman one pitch one
out when you talk about Bobby Miller
almost like the James outman route
except he just came a little louder a
little late kbo the average fast ball is
a touch below 90 I think it was not
close to that yesterday as the average
two up and two down as Miller Strikes
Out
Yun devastating change up right there
you can top out at 99 100 milph then you
take 13 mil an hour off with that kind
of movement you're going to get a lot of
swing and Miss which the Dodger pitcher
seven of them yesterday recorded full
mix that has come around to make him
such a well-rounded guy ground ball B it
to right in the first base runner of the
game for Korea five pitch mix and we
might see a better slider as we go into
the season but the change up and the
curveball outstanding the fast ball a
foundational pitch but you're right he
doesn't rely heavily on 100 milph and he
he said the reason that he's really
working so hard on that slider besides
it being his inconsist
there strike
three slider to the knees pitch that
Bob's been working on through the spring
finishes off the first inning the
Dodgers come to back after
this this ballpark as have had a couple
workouts here now a couple games as they
come to bat with this starting lineup
brought to you by your local Kia dealers
it is the same lineup as yesterday and
probably the lineup you're going to see
on opening day and stays bet Otani and
Freeman set the lead it off here on the
mound for team Korea this is Bean guac
who had a breakout season last year that
290 erra for the ducon Bears is one of
the best in the
kbo
2018 24y old one of the hardest throwers
in the kbo heing have touch 96 97 M an
hour didn't see what was on your phone
everybody was looking at I go they must
be talking

command throughout his career but that

out and he takes that responsibility and
that opportunity very very seriously not

amazing the shot to left
Hernandez the che with kir nothing to
complain about if there is a survey
after
this Miller gets some of the high fast
he's got his first clean in of the game
he's through five on the platform as one
of the cheers before this one's
finished Lofts a Fly ball in that
direction Yun coming on to put it
away coming at you I don't think so um
now makes sense why I haven't gotten a
hit I didn't know the ball is smaller
and all no but uh no I can't tell the
difference but feeling it today is just
building some shoulder strength and
shortening the arm so where uh when I
can make my throws for short I don't
have to think about it you think we need
to get you like a Handler who can make
the catches for you then pass you the
ball like a quarterback oral oral
mentioned that so since oral Miss now
Gavin Stone speaking of looking sharp he
has this spring earning the F starter
job and it begins his night here with a
strike out of Kong
for Grounded to
short and roas gets
him I love the with the breaking ball
and the change
up got him
wow no no didn't get him yo who you know
back to the 198 8s huh 1984 Peter Al
very aggressive and friendly to foreign
countries especially
Korea and the commissioner came over as
a player and learned a lot about
[Music]
baseball back to back
K good life on that
[Applause]
fast both these youngsters have not been
scared to use the strike
zone varas down high these youngsters
the top two picks of the draft come in
and combine to strike out the
side barbecue to join us up here how you
doing yeah here's a hot shot to center
field that outman is under W has is
delivering a really good spot right now
and this is the command of the fast ball
that we saw to round push off the Rubber
and all of that is and it really threw
him off for a bit and I think it took
him a while to get back into it but he's
in a great place right now yeah his foot
looks very
healed uh that was fast enough where I'm
not even going to give you the option
you're coming back heading to the ball
with then an absolutely perfect thrower
acrost the diamond that was that was
really impressive and yeah a testament
to all the work that M has put in this
off season as well driven the other way
sounded good back it goes got enough
there you go Robert and Bates are pretty
good at their job they know what they're
talking about opposite field home run
from Chris Taylor gives the Dodgers a 52
lead in a ballpark that doesn't give up
many home runs but gives up a lot of
doubles to goo here that is some pop yes
it is the guys were talking to BP the
ball is not going out anywhere besides
the lines and that was
almost very good back a little bit game
there you know his routine in between
practice uh practice reps is the same
that he'll do uh in game so everything
that he does is for the year he had last
year it's got to have a lot of weight in
the clubhouse for him to be a team guy
yeah and mig's a total Pro and he's
going to play a ton and and I think
that's the thing every time to get
people off their feet with the DH role
and so are there other theories on how
to get guys off the their feet is it
going to be maybe def placements the
last two or three Innings when it's a
blowout yeah I mean I think I hope we
have a lot of those F that's
how one two is on the outside corner 77
it's a funky look that Mark brings
it chisl with a home R impressive OPP
shot it's 52
[Music]
La well if you don't mind getting up for
a 3 a.m. game those two pitchers and if
you maybe talk to the ground crew and
I'm not talking about home do Stadium
I'm talking about on the road oh Gavin
Stone his six strike out in two and
two3 I love this back in the same
window wow there it is right there and
there's the seven strikeout in three
Innings from Gavin
Stone flight delay
luny sends this ball near right center
field where dong Yun will catch
it first out of the eight 3-2 to
Hernandez guess that was not
3-2 maybe he didn't know it was the 3-2
he didn't know it was it's ball
four that's a pop up on the left side of
the infield and an easy play for Park
guys should just probably deliver The
Scouting Report here for Miguel Vargas
he Wast no time putting it to use
popping one in the shadow right field
nice play by
Kim he on Kim never mind it's Moon Moon
made a great play and the spot that Kim
was in fires a
payoff went around his eighth strike out
