WEBVTT - Miguel Rojas Postgame (8-28-26) 

0:00:00.430 --> 0:00:06.210
<v Speaker 1>And now, an exclusive interview with David Basset for Dodger Talk.

0:00:07.230 --> 0:00:09.969
<v Speaker 1>We are live at Comerica Park in Detroit where the

0:00:10.010 --> 0:00:13.450
<v Speaker 1>Dodgers play another one-run game and they come out on

0:00:13.510 --> 0:00:17.340
<v Speaker 1>top 2-1. Who knows where this game goes if Miguel

0:00:17.380 --> 0:00:21.479
<v Speaker 1>Rojas doesn't come off the bench against another lefty and

0:00:21.560 --> 0:00:28.120
<v Speaker 1>turns 95 into a game-tying RBI 100-mile-an-hour exit velo off

0:00:28.160 --> 0:00:32.400
<v Speaker 1>the bat. Miguel, obviously you've been very good against lefties

0:00:32.460 --> 0:00:34.960
<v Speaker 1>this year, but it's never easy coming off the bench.

0:00:35.380 --> 0:00:36.940
<v Speaker 2>First pitch, what do you think in there?

0:00:36.960 --> 0:00:40.060
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I've been trying to keep the same approach regardless

0:00:40.100 --> 0:00:43.440
<v Speaker 3>of the results, trying to stay positive and kind of

0:00:43.460 --> 0:00:46.389
<v Speaker 3>consistent with the things that I do against lefties, even

0:00:46.409 --> 0:00:50.229
<v Speaker 3>though the last week or so haven't been really good.

0:00:52.290 --> 0:00:54.570
<v Speaker 3>I feel like in that situation right there, I'm not

0:00:54.610 --> 0:00:58.130
<v Speaker 3>thinking about chasing or anything. I'm thinking about being aggressive,

0:00:58.150 --> 0:01:00.720
<v Speaker 3>attacking the fastball. I know the guy had a pretty

0:01:00.730 --> 0:01:03.420
<v Speaker 3>good fastball, but I feel like the bus yesterday against

0:01:03.440 --> 0:01:08.200
<v Speaker 3>Seau prepared me to this one. So Seau was giving

0:01:08.660 --> 0:01:09.280
<v Speaker 3>me 98, 99 yesterday.

0:01:09.640 --> 0:01:12.020
<v Speaker 2>This guy gave me 95, and I was able to

0:01:12.040 --> 0:01:14.280
<v Speaker 2>get on top of it, and that was a big run.

0:01:14.330 --> 0:01:16.650
<v Speaker 2>We haven't scored in a long time, and I feel

0:01:16.670 --> 0:01:17.850
<v Speaker 2>like we.

0:01:17.770 --> 0:01:20.350
<v Speaker 3>Had a lot of opportunities, and I was able.

0:01:20.209 --> 0:01:22.569
<v Speaker 2>To come through. I feel good about it. How big

0:01:22.610 --> 0:01:24.010
<v Speaker 2>of a win is this for you guys?

0:01:24.310 --> 0:01:28.780
<v Speaker 3>It's pretty big because we're going to enter this last

0:01:28.840 --> 0:01:31.460
<v Speaker 3>month of the year where it's a pen and chase,

0:01:31.480 --> 0:01:34.350
<v Speaker 3>you know. I think that's the first step that we

0:01:34.390 --> 0:01:38.220
<v Speaker 3>have to conquer, which is winning the division and getting

0:01:38.260 --> 0:01:40.360
<v Speaker 3>into the playoff. And then after that, worry about what's

0:01:40.400 --> 0:01:43.600
<v Speaker 3>coming next. But right now, we have to be focused

0:01:43.640 --> 0:01:46.539
<v Speaker 3>on one day at a time and.

0:01:45.860 --> 0:01:46.619
<v Speaker 2>One pitch at a time.

0:01:46.660 --> 0:01:48.640
<v Speaker 3>And I feel like that's going to prepare us for

0:01:48.680 --> 0:01:49.270
<v Speaker 3>what is coming.

0:01:49.330 --> 0:01:54.250
<v Speaker 2>So these games, the one-run games, are always important, always.

0:01:54.030 --> 0:01:56.990
<v Speaker 3>Huge to win, because this is kind of like the

0:01:57.010 --> 0:01:58.350
<v Speaker 3>playoff environment.

0:01:58.370 --> 0:02:00.350
<v Speaker 2>So if we find a way to win these ones,

0:02:00.370 --> 0:02:02.080
<v Speaker 2>we're going to be in a good spot. great job

0:02:02.140 --> 0:02:04.130
<v Speaker 2>as always thanks a lot for stopping thank you
