0:00:00.320 --> 0:00:04.720
<v Speaker 1>And out an exclusive interview with David Bassey for Dodger Talk.

0:00:06.920 --> 0:00:09.760
<v Speaker 1>We're getting set for Game four of the World Series

0:00:09.800 --> 0:00:12.639
<v Speaker 1>between the Dodgers and Blue Jays, and everybody is still

0:00:12.680 --> 0:00:17.239
<v Speaker 1>buzzing about the eighteen inning finish last night or earlier

0:00:17.320 --> 0:00:19.680
<v Speaker 1>this morning. And we're joined right now by one of

0:00:19.680 --> 0:00:23.000
<v Speaker 1>those Dodger bullpen dogs who pitched an inning and two

0:00:23.079 --> 0:00:26.200
<v Speaker 1>thirds scoreless innings in the first nine innings of last

0:00:26.280 --> 0:00:29.800
<v Speaker 1>night's game. And that's Justin Robleski, justin, Thanks a lot

0:00:29.840 --> 0:00:31.080
<v Speaker 1>for the time, appreciate it.

0:00:31.240 --> 0:00:34.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, thank you, Dave. Glad to be here. Glad we won.

0:00:34.479 --> 0:00:37.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, makes it easier to go to bed and wake

0:00:37.120 --> 0:00:39.160
<v Speaker 1>up quickly, right with a smile on your face.

0:00:39.320 --> 0:00:41.520
<v Speaker 2>For sure. For sure when you.

0:00:41.440 --> 0:00:44.880
<v Speaker 1>See what the team did. It took all twenty six

0:00:44.960 --> 0:00:48.400
<v Speaker 1>of you guys to win a World Series game. How

0:00:48.520 --> 0:00:52.360
<v Speaker 1>much more special is it when everybody contributes in a

0:00:52.400 --> 0:00:53.279
<v Speaker 1>World series win.

0:00:54.040 --> 0:00:54.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:00:54.280 --> 0:00:56.920
<v Speaker 3>I think anytime you know, you win a World Series game,

0:00:57.040 --> 0:00:59.000
<v Speaker 3>or you're playing in a World Series game in general,

0:00:59.160 --> 0:01:01.280
<v Speaker 3>it's obviously a huge, you know, once in a lifetime

0:01:01.280 --> 0:01:04.440
<v Speaker 3>deal and for us to all kind of contribute in

0:01:04.680 --> 0:01:07.040
<v Speaker 3>small ways in that game, and you know, even the

0:01:07.080 --> 0:01:09.399
<v Speaker 3>guys that aren't on the roster kind of contributed and

0:01:09.959 --> 0:01:12.440
<v Speaker 3>it was really really special. It was a lot of fun,

0:01:13.120 --> 0:01:15.280
<v Speaker 3>probably the most fun I've ever had in the game

0:01:15.319 --> 0:01:15.880
<v Speaker 3>in my life.

0:01:16.000 --> 0:01:17.280
<v Speaker 2>Like, you know, got to.

0:01:17.560 --> 0:01:19.160
<v Speaker 3>Pitch in the game and then come out of the

0:01:19.160 --> 0:01:20.759
<v Speaker 3>game and kind of be a part of the cheerleading

0:01:20.800 --> 0:01:24.200
<v Speaker 3>squad for everybody. And yeah, see Freddie's walk off home

0:01:24.280 --> 0:01:27.360
<v Speaker 3>run and you know a lot of people still here

0:01:27.800 --> 0:01:30.920
<v Speaker 3>for eighteen innings, you know, hats off of the fans

0:01:30.959 --> 0:01:34.640
<v Speaker 3>and everybody that stuck around. And yeah, my family was here,

0:01:34.680 --> 0:01:36.640
<v Speaker 3>so that was That was another thing that made it

0:01:36.640 --> 0:01:39.480
<v Speaker 3>pretty cool for me. And yeah, it was it was special.

0:01:39.720 --> 0:01:43.280
<v Speaker 1>Obviously Freddie with the walk off home run huge, But

0:01:43.560 --> 0:01:48.000
<v Speaker 1>I loved after you mobbed Freddie Freeman, the team mobbed

0:01:48.000 --> 0:01:49.720
<v Speaker 1>Will Kleine. How cool is that?

0:01:50.280 --> 0:01:51.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's it's pretty cool.

0:01:51.400 --> 0:01:53.920
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I think you know, a lot of people,

0:01:54.480 --> 0:01:56.520
<v Speaker 3>I mean, obviously the media and everybody you know, is

0:01:56.800 --> 0:01:58.880
<v Speaker 3>letting everybody know that what Will did was a big deal.

0:01:58.960 --> 0:02:01.840
<v Speaker 3>But I think when you're in when you're in baseball

0:02:01.920 --> 0:02:04.560
<v Speaker 3>and you know the game and you kind of know

0:02:04.600 --> 0:02:07.080
<v Speaker 3>how it is, and you know that for me, especially

0:02:07.120 --> 0:02:09.600
<v Speaker 3>being a starter and a reliever, like knowing kind of

0:02:09.600 --> 0:02:13.480
<v Speaker 3>the differences and everything else and knowing that that will

0:02:13.760 --> 0:02:16.639
<v Speaker 3>gave us everything you had yesterday. And he's not a

0:02:16.680 --> 0:02:18.880
<v Speaker 3>guy that came from a starting background, so he just

0:02:19.000 --> 0:02:21.760
<v Speaker 3>as a reliever through whatever it was seventy pitches or

0:02:21.760 --> 0:02:25.000
<v Speaker 3>sixty something pitches or whatever, and four innings and it

0:02:25.040 --> 0:02:28.200
<v Speaker 3>doesn't go unnoticed. And yeah, we were all super pumped

0:02:28.240 --> 0:02:30.840
<v Speaker 3>for him, and you know, super happy not only that

0:02:30.919 --> 0:02:32.560
<v Speaker 3>we won the game, but that he was able to

0:02:32.919 --> 0:02:35.679
<v Speaker 3>kind of, you know, be a hero quote unquote, And

0:02:36.040 --> 0:02:36.800
<v Speaker 3>it was super cool.

0:02:37.160 --> 0:02:39.800
<v Speaker 1>Justin Roe Bleski is joining us. Before Game four of

0:02:39.800 --> 0:02:42.680
<v Speaker 1>the World Series, I was standing next to your Dougout,

0:02:42.720 --> 0:02:44.760
<v Speaker 1>I told you for the last nine innings, and I

0:02:44.840 --> 0:02:49.639
<v Speaker 1>thought it showed such great team chemistry and camaraderie and

0:02:50.000 --> 0:02:53.000
<v Speaker 1>how unselfish you guys all are for each other, how

0:02:53.160 --> 0:02:56.240
<v Speaker 1>loud not only cheering for will Climb, but how loud

0:02:56.680 --> 0:02:59.840
<v Speaker 1>the dugout was trying to will him no pun intended

0:03:00.040 --> 0:03:03.320
<v Speaker 1>to each and every out. Do you believe that that

0:03:03.480 --> 0:03:05.839
<v Speaker 1>helped him and do you believe that he fed off

0:03:05.840 --> 0:03:07.320
<v Speaker 1>of that in those four inings?

0:03:07.919 --> 0:03:11.360
<v Speaker 3>I mean, selfishly for all of us in there, I'd

0:03:11.400 --> 0:03:14.120
<v Speaker 3>like to think we helped, But I think I think

0:03:14.160 --> 0:03:16.239
<v Speaker 3>if you really asked Will, he's probably just out there

0:03:16.919 --> 0:03:19.760
<v Speaker 3>tunnel vision, not hearing anything, just seeing the mid and

0:03:19.800 --> 0:03:22.880
<v Speaker 3>trying to get guys out. But I think, you know,

0:03:23.800 --> 0:03:26.360
<v Speaker 3>regardless of if it helped him or not, I think, you know,

0:03:26.960 --> 0:03:28.960
<v Speaker 3>being behind your teammate in a spot like that is

0:03:29.000 --> 0:03:32.240
<v Speaker 3>important and just celebrating with him when it goes well.

0:03:32.280 --> 0:03:34.440
<v Speaker 3>And yeah, I think it was. It was a lot

0:03:34.440 --> 0:03:35.400
<v Speaker 3>of fun for us.

0:03:35.320 --> 0:03:38.480
<v Speaker 1>In the dugout, more fun that you won the game, right.

0:03:38.920 --> 0:03:41.400
<v Speaker 2>One hundred percent? One hundred percent? How big?

0:03:41.440 --> 0:03:43.240
<v Speaker 1>How big of a win is that? And how big

0:03:43.320 --> 0:03:46.320
<v Speaker 1>is it? Uh to go into today's game with a

0:03:46.440 --> 0:03:47.920
<v Speaker 1>chance to go up three to one?

0:03:48.360 --> 0:03:50.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I think it's it's a huge win. I mean

0:03:50.280 --> 0:03:52.520
<v Speaker 3>it's a huge, huge, huge win. And credit to them

0:03:52.560 --> 0:03:54.680
<v Speaker 3>that they fought just as hard as we did. It's

0:03:54.720 --> 0:03:56.520
<v Speaker 3>just we had, you know, one more big swing than

0:03:56.520 --> 0:03:59.960
<v Speaker 3>they did. But uh, yeah, it's a huge, huge win

0:04:00.080 --> 0:04:02.680
<v Speaker 3>in and you know, going up three one is the

0:04:02.720 --> 0:04:05.400
<v Speaker 3>goal today and that's a big deal. So we're gonna

0:04:05.400 --> 0:04:07.640
<v Speaker 3>try to get it done and hopefully have the chance

0:04:07.880 --> 0:04:09.280
<v Speaker 3>to close this thing out tomorrow at home.

0:04:09.480 --> 0:04:12.640
<v Speaker 1>How much more confidence do you have that Dave Roberts

0:04:12.720 --> 0:04:16.839
<v Speaker 1>is going to in critical situations in the World Series.

0:04:16.960 --> 0:04:18.960
<v Speaker 1>That's got a feed off itself.

0:04:18.880 --> 0:04:21.800
<v Speaker 3>For sure, and I think you know, they've been in

0:04:21.920 --> 0:04:24.600
<v Speaker 3>constant with the messaging to me this whole postseason and

0:04:25.040 --> 0:04:27.599
<v Speaker 3>you're gonna get big outs for us, And you know,

0:04:27.680 --> 0:04:30.800
<v Speaker 3>Dave came up to me and Milwaukee and was just like, hey,

0:04:30.920 --> 0:04:32.360
<v Speaker 3>like stay ready, stay locked in.

0:04:32.279 --> 0:04:34.359
<v Speaker 1>And your starters didn't really need.

0:04:34.200 --> 0:04:35.640
<v Speaker 2>You exactly exactly.

0:04:35.640 --> 0:04:37.479
<v Speaker 3>When the starting pitching has been as good as it

0:04:37.520 --> 0:04:39.479
<v Speaker 3>has been, there's just not gonna be as as many

0:04:39.480 --> 0:04:42.560
<v Speaker 3>opportunities out there, which is which is fine. I'm okay

0:04:42.600 --> 0:04:45.480
<v Speaker 3>with winning, that's for sure, But yeah, I knew at

0:04:45.480 --> 0:04:48.080
<v Speaker 3>some point there was gonna be a spot where I'd

0:04:48.080 --> 0:04:49.960
<v Speaker 3>have to come in and get some big outs, and

0:04:50.080 --> 0:04:53.440
<v Speaker 3>yesterday is you know, obviously the goal is always the same,

0:04:53.520 --> 0:04:56.280
<v Speaker 3>but different different juice in a tie ball game than

0:04:56.320 --> 0:04:58.440
<v Speaker 3>it was in Toronto and when we were down a

0:04:58.480 --> 0:05:00.760
<v Speaker 3>little bit so, but yeah, it was a lot of

0:05:00.760 --> 0:05:05.760
<v Speaker 3>fun and hopefully, you know, I it's super blessed and

0:05:05.960 --> 0:05:08.440
<v Speaker 3>grateful to have that opportunity and in that big of

0:05:08.440 --> 0:05:08.839
<v Speaker 3>a spot.

0:05:09.080 --> 0:05:11.800
<v Speaker 1>I know Alex Vessia wherever he was watching last night,

0:05:11.920 --> 0:05:16.039
<v Speaker 1>was super proud the relievers put fifty one on their caps.

0:05:16.160 --> 0:05:18.960
<v Speaker 1>Whose idea was that and how much did that mean

0:05:19.000 --> 0:05:21.800
<v Speaker 1>to the entire team within the team down there?

0:05:22.279 --> 0:05:24.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I think it just it just came as a collective,

0:05:25.080 --> 0:05:28.640
<v Speaker 3>you know, Blake trying and how the kind of you know, hey,

0:05:28.640 --> 0:05:30.359
<v Speaker 3>should we do this? Hey, you guys want to do this?

0:05:30.480 --> 0:05:33.280
<v Speaker 3>And yeah, we were just like, let's let's do it.

0:05:33.320 --> 0:05:35.440
<v Speaker 3>And because Vess is such a big part of kind

0:05:35.480 --> 0:05:37.920
<v Speaker 3>of everything we do down there, and he's been such

0:05:37.920 --> 0:05:40.800
<v Speaker 3>a big part of this team all year, even through

0:05:40.800 --> 0:05:43.599
<v Speaker 3>these playoffs, and yeah, it's just kind of, you know,

0:05:44.960 --> 0:05:47.200
<v Speaker 3>show our support to him and let him know that

0:05:47.279 --> 0:05:49.520
<v Speaker 3>that we're thinking of him and his family during this time.

0:05:49.600 --> 0:05:51.719
<v Speaker 3>So that's that's really the big thing.

0:05:51.960 --> 0:05:55.120
<v Speaker 1>Don't be nervous about saying it's Blake Trennon's idea. I'll

0:05:55.120 --> 0:05:59.640
<v Speaker 1>handle trying and don't worry about it. Robleski. I know

0:05:59.680 --> 0:06:00.240
<v Speaker 1>I can't.

0:06:00.279 --> 0:06:00.560
<v Speaker 2>I can't.

0:06:00.600 --> 0:06:02.200
<v Speaker 3>I can't give him too much credit though, I can't

0:06:02.200 --> 0:06:04.320
<v Speaker 3>give him. I gotta gotta keep him humble, you know.

0:06:04.440 --> 0:06:07.600

0:06:07.720 --> 0:06:08.080
