WEBVTT - Will Smith Postgame (9-25-26) 

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

0:00:06.830 --> 0:00:10.399
<v Speaker 2>Well, how fun was it to be catching Tarek Skubal tonight?

0:00:11.140 --> 0:00:12.639
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he had some good stuff tonight. You know, he

0:00:12.660 --> 0:00:15.720
<v Speaker 3>was attacking their guys, getting quick outs, punching a lot

0:00:15.740 --> 0:00:17.620
<v Speaker 3>of guys out. It was fun tonight.

0:00:18.160 --> 0:00:20.180
<v Speaker 2>When you have a guy in that type of rhythm

0:00:20.220 --> 0:00:24.000
<v Speaker 2>getting strike one on virtually every guy, do you just

0:00:24.020 --> 0:00:25.700
<v Speaker 2>sit back and let him do his thing? Did you

0:00:25.780 --> 0:00:27.160
<v Speaker 2>know he was in that rhythm early?

0:00:28.330 --> 0:00:30.030
<v Speaker 3>I mean, that's my job is to get him in

0:00:30.070 --> 0:00:31.970
<v Speaker 3>the rhythm, you know, get him comfortable, get him settled

0:00:32.010 --> 0:00:34.349
<v Speaker 3>in the game. He's able to do it quickly today,

0:00:34.409 --> 0:00:36.640
<v Speaker 3>and that's why he gave us, you know, seven shutout innings.

0:00:37.120 --> 0:00:39.580
<v Speaker 2>Last week, he was frustrated that he didn't have the

0:00:39.640 --> 0:00:42.620
<v Speaker 2>fastball command. How did he make the adjustments tonight?

0:00:43.659 --> 0:00:45.510
<v Speaker 3>I think he just got to work. You know, he

0:00:45.550 --> 0:00:48.110
<v Speaker 3>worked the last five, six days, whatever it's been, and...

0:00:49.050 --> 0:00:51.010
<v Speaker 3>Maybe probably made a couple adjustments and went out there

0:00:51.030 --> 0:00:52.290
<v Speaker 3>tonight and it showed.

0:00:52.690 --> 0:00:55.220
<v Speaker 2>Will, for you tonight, three hits. Hey, one of the

0:00:55.230 --> 0:00:57.420
<v Speaker 2>bullpen dogs right there. Vessia, you like him?

0:00:58.060 --> 0:00:59.040
<v Speaker 3>He's all right, yeah.

0:00:59.560 --> 0:01:01.900
<v Speaker 2>You had three hits tonight. Do you feel like you're

0:01:01.920 --> 0:01:04.540
<v Speaker 2>in a good spot with the timing and the results

0:01:04.560 --> 0:01:05.680
<v Speaker 2>you're getting offensively?

0:01:05.700 --> 0:01:08.550
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I do. You know, I feel like. Seen the

0:01:08.569 --> 0:01:10.709
<v Speaker 3>ball well, getting my swings off, moving the ball when

0:01:10.730 --> 0:01:14.300
<v Speaker 3>I need to. Just, yeah, feel like good rhythm, you know,

0:01:14.319 --> 0:01:16.570
<v Speaker 3>pregame work and all that. So trying to keep that going.

0:01:16.930 --> 0:01:18.580
<v Speaker 3>Thanks a lot for the time. I like what you

0:01:18.600 --> 0:01:21.060
<v Speaker 3>brought to the table tonight, Smith. Thanks, Dave.
