00:00Now we go to LA, the third and final game of a midweek set between the Rangers and the Dodgers

00:09to round out the Rubbermax. The Dodgers victorious in game one, plating 15 runs.

00:15Corey Seeger and the Rangers respond in game two. And in game three, the Southern California kid,

00:21Michael Lorenzen, absolutely deals for Texas. They knock off LA and win the finale three to

00:29one as a pretty hefty underdog. LA was booked as a minus 190 Moneyline favorite.

00:35That's why we couldn't figure out the pitching matchup yesterday for the Dodgers,

00:38because it looks like Grove opened up, then Yarborough, then Ramirez. We thought maybe

00:42Ramirez would open, hand it off to Grove, and didn't even know Yarborough was getting a start

00:46early in the day or any extended relief at this point. But that's a good win for the Rangers,

00:49three to one, because we talked about yesterday how crazy Corey Seeger's statistics are. And you

00:54look in that lineup like, oh, well, Corey Seeger didn't even play and they still won in Los Angeles,

00:59three to one. That's pretty good. Now, from an RBI perspective, I actually picked two guys out,

01:03Tasker Hernandez and also Will Smith. Will Smith didn't start, got my money back. Tasker Hernandez,

01:08though, 0-3 in the middle of that lineup. Shohei Otani, 0-4. Mookie Betts, 1-4. Freddie Freeman,

01:131-4. No damage done because of a very good pitching performance by Lorenzen here. That's

01:18a shocking upset to me, even though we technically didn't have a pedigree pitcher on the mound for

01:23the Los Angeles Dodgers, 42-28 for the Dodgers and Navy. Again, I don't know. It's just the same

01:28thing we talk about over and over again in the ALS. Somebody want to sort of play around and

01:33say, hey, Mariners, you just can't run away with this thing. Maybe it's the Rangers here,

01:36but they need that full gas lineup. Well, they'll take a victory on the road against the Dodgers,

01:40that's for sure.
