WEBVTT - Freddie Freeman Postgame (8-30-26) 

0:00:00.430 --> 0:00:06.250
<v Speaker 1>And now, an exclusive interview with David Basset for Dodger Talk.

0:00:06.810 --> 0:00:09.390
<v Speaker 2>Freddie, what a win for you guys, and also getting

0:00:09.490 --> 0:00:11.710
<v Speaker 2>the series win. How big was that for you guys

0:00:11.770 --> 0:00:12.960
<v Speaker 2>to get out of here with two?

0:00:13.180 --> 0:00:13.540
<v Speaker 1>Oh, big.

0:00:14.440 --> 0:00:16.079
<v Speaker 3>It's been a grind of a week. It's been a

0:00:16.070 --> 0:00:18.140
<v Speaker 3>grind of the last couple weeks as a group. So

0:00:18.260 --> 0:00:20.700
<v Speaker 3>it's nice as an offense to score some runs. Our

0:00:20.720 --> 0:00:22.739
<v Speaker 3>starting pitching has been amazing, so it's nice to be

0:00:22.760 --> 0:00:24.020
<v Speaker 3>able to put some runs on the board for them.

0:00:24.460 --> 0:00:26.759
<v Speaker 2>Freddie, I know everybody talks about the hits, but your

0:00:26.800 --> 0:00:29.520
<v Speaker 2>base running today really set the tone going first to

0:00:29.580 --> 0:00:31.870
<v Speaker 2>third on that base hit up the middle in the

0:00:31.930 --> 0:00:34.990
<v Speaker 2>fourth inning. Is that just a normal Freddie baseball player,

0:00:35.010 --> 0:00:36.370
<v Speaker 2>or was there a little more urgency?

0:00:36.430 --> 0:00:38.230
<v Speaker 3>No, I just try and be the same guy every day.

0:00:39.130 --> 0:00:40.750
<v Speaker 3>I'm not the fastest guy out there, so I've got

0:00:40.770 --> 0:00:42.530
<v Speaker 3>to be able to be smart and get first and third,

0:00:43.300 --> 0:00:45.900
<v Speaker 3>score from first on balls in the gaps. I've just

0:00:45.920 --> 0:00:48.260
<v Speaker 3>got to do my part. I thought I was a

0:00:48.300 --> 0:00:50.060
<v Speaker 3>little wet, and maybe I slowed down a little bit,

0:00:50.080 --> 0:00:50.979
<v Speaker 3>so that's why I tested.

0:00:50.800 --> 0:00:51.220
<v Speaker 1>It right there.

0:00:51.600 --> 0:00:53.740
<v Speaker 2>Freddie, before you go, I've got to let you know

0:00:53.840 --> 0:00:58.060
<v Speaker 2>what history you made today you matched and passed Ernie

0:00:58.120 --> 0:01:01.520
<v Speaker 2>Banks as far as career hits in baseball history and

0:01:01.540 --> 0:01:05.580
<v Speaker 2>you matched Reggie Jackson with that many hits and also

0:01:05.580 --> 0:01:10.520
<v Speaker 2>579 doubles you're now only five away from passing Robin

0:01:10.540 --> 0:01:12.840
<v Speaker 2>Yount on that list yeah.

0:01:12.980 --> 0:01:17.490
<v Speaker 3>Um that's kind of incredible um yeah yeah I don't

0:01:17.550 --> 0:01:20.670
<v Speaker 3>really have much to say that's just amazing I've been

0:01:20.709 --> 0:01:23.009
<v Speaker 3>lucky enough to play this game a long time, and

0:01:24.069 --> 0:01:26.240
<v Speaker 3>to be up there with those names is pretty special.

0:01:26.260 --> 0:01:27.480
<v Speaker 3>So it's an honor.

0:01:27.800 --> 0:01:29.540
<v Speaker 2>For us to be on this ride with you, Freddie,

0:01:29.600 --> 0:01:32.390
<v Speaker 2>it's a pleasure, and certainly we're very lucky. So thank

0:01:32.420 --> 0:01:35.010
<v Speaker 2>you for stopping, and happy flight back to L.A.

0:01:35.050 --> 0:01:36.930
<v Speaker 3>Thank you, David. Appreciate you guys. See you on Tuesday.
