WEBVTT - Dave Roberts Postgame (9-27-26) 

0:00:00.430 --> 0:00:06.180
<v Speaker 1>And now, an exclusive interview with David Basset for Dodger Talk.

0:00:06.620 --> 0:00:09.900
<v Speaker 2>Dave, 100 wins. What a way to win this one

0:00:09.940 --> 0:00:13.039
<v Speaker 2>today in San Francisco to sweep the Giants. But what

0:00:13.060 --> 0:00:14.680
<v Speaker 2>can you say about this team this year?

0:00:15.930 --> 0:00:19.470
<v Speaker 1>Tough, resilient. You know, it took a lot of us

0:00:19.530 --> 0:00:21.790
<v Speaker 1>to get to 100 wins and went through a lot

0:00:21.829 --> 0:00:27.030
<v Speaker 1>of things this year. and no one complained, made an excuse, and,

0:00:27.310 --> 0:00:29.950
<v Speaker 1>you know, the body of work of 162, pretty impressive.

0:00:30.270 --> 0:00:33.229
<v Speaker 2>What can you say about Andy Pahez? His season was

0:00:33.979 --> 0:00:36.740
<v Speaker 2>stopped for a month, comes back, and helps you guys

0:00:36.800 --> 0:00:38.880
<v Speaker 2>win today, and certainly one of your guys.

0:00:39.140 --> 0:00:42.060
<v Speaker 1>He's definitely one of our guys, and he's an all-star,

0:00:42.380 --> 0:00:44.159
<v Speaker 1>can never be taken away from. There's going to be

0:00:44.180 --> 0:00:47.400
<v Speaker 1>more all-star games in the future, and, yeah, it was

0:00:47.560 --> 0:00:49.700
<v Speaker 1>a tough time. He was emotional, obviously, when he got

0:00:49.740 --> 0:00:51.950
<v Speaker 1>hit on the hand, knew it was a fracture. but

0:00:51.970 --> 0:00:54.870
<v Speaker 1>to come back as soon as he did prepare to

0:00:54.890 --> 0:00:58.590
<v Speaker 1>hit the ground running and what a difference a year makes.

0:00:58.730 --> 0:01:01.090
<v Speaker 1>Just the confidence that he has going into postseason this

0:01:01.110 --> 0:01:02.470
<v Speaker 1>year versus last.

0:01:02.850 --> 0:01:06.069
<v Speaker 2>Today seemed to be a very emotional day for Miguel Rojas.

0:01:06.590 --> 0:01:08.800
<v Speaker 2>What was that like? I saw you guys embrace before

0:01:08.860 --> 0:01:11.500
<v Speaker 2>the game to get a win for him in what

0:01:11.640 --> 0:01:14.200
<v Speaker 2>could be his possible final regular season game.

0:01:14.380 --> 0:01:16.100
<v Speaker 1>It was emotional. I think he just wanted to let

0:01:16.140 --> 0:01:19.620
<v Speaker 1>me know how grateful he was just taking care of

0:01:19.660 --> 0:01:22.700
<v Speaker 1>him these last few years and We accomplished a lot together,

0:01:22.740 --> 0:01:24.940
<v Speaker 1>and Miggie was a big part of it. And I

0:01:24.980 --> 0:01:26.640
<v Speaker 1>just told him to take every moment in, and I

0:01:26.700 --> 0:01:30.000
<v Speaker 1>wanted to have him finish his career where it started shortstop,

0:01:30.080 --> 0:01:33.200
<v Speaker 1>and Mookie wanted that as well. So it couldn't have

0:01:33.220 --> 0:01:36.140
<v Speaker 1>worked out any better. Now we got the most important

0:01:36.190 --> 0:01:36.830
<v Speaker 1>season coming up.

0:01:37.280 --> 0:01:39.990
<v Speaker 2>And is the Dodgers the only thing that you guys

0:01:40.030 --> 0:01:42.650
<v Speaker 2>need to worry about? Is it all about what you

0:01:42.690 --> 0:01:43.190
<v Speaker 2>guys do?

0:01:43.630 --> 0:01:46.209
<v Speaker 1>It is. Like I said, I told you before, One

0:01:46.230 --> 0:01:50.190
<v Speaker 1>through 26, there's nobody better. But in a short series,

0:01:50.250 --> 0:01:53.100
<v Speaker 1>anything can happen, as we've learned in the past. So

0:01:53.160 --> 0:01:55.420
<v Speaker 1>it isn't about the opponent. It's about, like you said,

0:01:55.460 --> 0:01:58.320
<v Speaker 1>how we play and focus on ourselves, playing good baseball,

0:01:58.360 --> 0:02:00.140
<v Speaker 1>which I do think right now we are.

0:02:00.320 --> 0:02:03.140
<v Speaker 2>We're looking forward to it, Dave. Congratulations on another great

0:02:03.180 --> 0:02:06.340
<v Speaker 2>regular season. And like you said, the real season starts

0:02:06.670 --> 0:02:07.340
<v Speaker 2>next Saturday.

0:02:07.470 --> 0:02:08.250
<v Speaker 1>All right, Dave. Thanks a lot.

0:02:08.450 --> 0:02:12.470
<v Speaker 2>There he goes, Dave Roberts, three-time World Series winning manager

0:02:12.810 --> 0:02:15.210
<v Speaker 2>and certainly the guy that leads this team in the dugout.
