WEBVTT - Alex Freeland Postgame (9-15-26) 

0:00:00.430 --> 0:00:04.689
<v Speaker 1>And now, an exclusive interview with David Basset for Dodger Talk.

0:00:06.920 --> 0:00:10.459
<v Speaker 2>We are live at Great American Ballpark in Cincinnati after

0:00:10.500 --> 0:00:15.780
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers shut out the Reds 4-0. Alex Freeland got

0:00:15.820 --> 0:00:18.320
<v Speaker 2>a little pep talk before the game today. Goes out,

0:00:18.380 --> 0:00:21.090
<v Speaker 2>it's a home run and double, so you're welcome.

0:00:21.390 --> 0:00:25.130
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Basset is just turning my career around completely. I

0:00:25.150 --> 0:00:27.690
<v Speaker 3>just need to talk to him every day and I'll

0:00:27.710 --> 0:00:28.550
<v Speaker 3>get a double and a homer.

0:00:28.950 --> 0:00:31.430
<v Speaker 2>Well, I told you before the game, it felt like

0:00:31.470 --> 0:00:33.570
<v Speaker 2>things were starting to come around for you. Have you

0:00:33.610 --> 0:00:35.950
<v Speaker 2>felt better at the plate? And tonight, was that the result?

0:00:36.390 --> 0:00:38.570
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, no. I mean, just since I've been back up,

0:00:38.630 --> 0:00:40.409
<v Speaker 3>I feel like each time that I've came back up,

0:00:40.510 --> 0:00:42.229
<v Speaker 3>I'm a little bit more confident than I was the

0:00:42.270 --> 0:00:46.790
<v Speaker 3>last time. And right now, I just feel solid at

0:00:46.810 --> 0:00:50.330
<v Speaker 3>the plate and not trying to do much. And it's clicking.

0:00:50.670 --> 0:00:54.930
<v Speaker 2>It was the two Fs that delivered tonight, Fidusha and Freeland.

0:00:54.970 --> 0:00:56.550
<v Speaker 2>How good is it to team up with one of

0:00:56.570 --> 0:00:57.650
<v Speaker 2>your minor league teammates?

0:00:58.400 --> 0:01:00.960
<v Speaker 3>Man, it feels good, especially with Fetty, just because me

0:01:01.380 --> 0:01:04.640
<v Speaker 3>and Fetty played for a while together, so it just

0:01:04.660 --> 0:01:06.560
<v Speaker 3>makes me happy seeing him have success, really.

0:01:07.040 --> 0:01:09.980
<v Speaker 2>He had a great job with Yamamoto tonight. How good

0:01:10.000 --> 0:01:13.620
<v Speaker 2>was Yamamoto? Retired 21 of the last 22 hitters he faced.

0:01:14.720 --> 0:01:18.840
<v Speaker 3>That's Yama. That's expected. I mean, he's unreal, and he's

0:01:18.860 --> 0:01:20.959
<v Speaker 3>going to go out, and he's going to pitch his

0:01:21.000 --> 0:01:23.610
<v Speaker 3>butt off and give us a chance like he does

0:01:23.670 --> 0:01:23.920
<v Speaker 3>every time.

0:01:24.459 --> 0:01:26.910
<v Speaker 2>Thanks for stopping. Great night. You said you'd come up

0:01:26.950 --> 0:01:28.600
<v Speaker 2>and take phone calls too, right, if you hit a

0:01:28.620 --> 0:01:29.020
<v Speaker 2>home run?

0:01:29.140 --> 0:01:29.660
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, definitely.
