Speaker 1: And now an exclusive interview with David Bassey for Dodger Talker.
Speaker 1: The Dodgers defeat the Brewers three to one and are
Speaker 1: just one win away from returning to the World Series. Mookie,
Speaker 1: BET's a big part of this team all year long,
Speaker 1: and in the ninth inning, that was Jeter esque that
Speaker 1: first out. Man, it must feel good to be able
Speaker 1: to help the team out and win this game.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, that's all I That's all I care about. Just
Speaker 2: Le's winning ball games. You know, that's a That's the
Speaker 2: reason why we play and that's what makes it fun.
Speaker 1: Hey, now, wonder you're a Gold Glove finalist as shortstop.
Speaker 1: You showed everybody why.
Speaker 2: I mean, it's a lot of work. It's a lot
Speaker 2: of work. A lot of people have helped me. But
Speaker 2: I'm just happy, Like I said, I'm just happy to

Speaker 1: Mookie. In the first inning, you guys got on the
Speaker 1: board early. Not sure if you realize this, but you're
Speaker 1: in the Dodger history books. You have the most doubles
Speaker 1: and Dodgers' postseason history. After your RBI double to drive
Speaker 1: in Otani, how good was it to see him get
Speaker 1: on for you and be able to get that early run.
Speaker 2: Oh, it's huge just to get on the board first,
Speaker 2: getting a show going, that's really important for us. It's
Speaker 2: kind of like the Bulls playing without Michael Jordan. But
Speaker 2: he'll be there when it's time on.
Speaker 1: You know, he's your Pippin.
Speaker 2: No no, I'll know, no, no, but he'll be there
Speaker 2: when it's time. And I'm as you saw it let
Speaker 2: off with a triple when we were to put one
Speaker 2: on the board and play downhill from there.
Speaker 1: You guys have had such a team effort all year long.
Speaker 1: You're one win away from going back to the World Series.
Speaker 1: Can you even allow yourself to realize you're that close?
Speaker 1: Not yet?
Speaker 2: Not yet? Well, let's get one more win and then
Speaker 2: hopefully we could take take a couple of days or
Speaker 2: whatever it is, and then we can reset. But we
Speaker 2: you know how hard it is to win ball games,
Speaker 2: and so you can't turn your brain off, and you
Speaker 2: really just got to grind through these through October.
Speaker 1: Really, I know he'll be the first guy out here tomorrow,
Speaker 1: Marcus lim Betts, you better know it.
