WEBVTT - Kiké Hernández (10-9-25)

0:00:00.360 --> 0:00:04.720
<v Speaker 1>And an exclusive interview with David Bassey for Dodger Talk

0:00:07.120 --> 0:00:07.680
<v Speaker 1>Hart We Live.

0:00:08.520 --> 0:00:08.920
<v Speaker 2>I don't know.

0:00:08.960 --> 0:00:10.479
<v Speaker 1>You tell me, oh, I don't know.

0:00:10.760 --> 0:00:12.600
<v Speaker 2>What's it like to be able to beat a team

0:00:12.720 --> 0:00:15.080
<v Speaker 2>like this? He gave the Phillies. A lot of people

0:00:15.080 --> 0:00:17.239
<v Speaker 2>believe it was going to be your biggest challenge in

0:00:17.320 --> 0:00:19.720
<v Speaker 2>a pitching type of four game series. How were you

0:00:19.760 --> 0:00:22.880
<v Speaker 2>able to be able to as a group stick with it?

0:00:23.239 --> 0:00:27.800
<v Speaker 1>Well, for for for for first, we scored more runs

0:00:27.800 --> 0:00:29.840
<v Speaker 1>than them three out of the four games, so we

0:00:29.880 --> 0:00:34.880
<v Speaker 1>won those three games. For celebrating, but yeah, that was

0:00:34.960 --> 0:00:36.760
<v Speaker 1>That's an unbelievable team. On the other side, you know,

0:00:38.240 --> 0:00:39.839
<v Speaker 1>I thought this series is gonna happen last year and it

0:00:39.840 --> 0:00:41.560
<v Speaker 1>didn't happen because the mess got the best of them,

0:00:41.960 --> 0:00:45.080
<v Speaker 1>and here we were again doing it again against them.

0:00:45.280 --> 0:00:47.240
<v Speaker 1>You know, they they had some really good pitching, and

0:00:47.280 --> 0:00:49.360
<v Speaker 1>they had some Mosses at the top of that lineup

0:00:49.400 --> 0:00:51.800
<v Speaker 1>and throughout that lineup. That's a pretty deep line up

0:00:51.840 --> 0:00:55.440
<v Speaker 1>that they got over there, And it was a gritty series.

0:00:55.560 --> 0:00:59.040
<v Speaker 1>We had to earn every single one of those three wins.

0:00:59.520 --> 0:01:02.520
<v Speaker 1>And you just saw a really good baseball for four

0:01:02.520 --> 0:01:05.440
<v Speaker 1>games on both sides. And I'm really glad we came

0:01:05.480 --> 0:01:06.520
<v Speaker 1>out on top. Keyk.

0:01:06.640 --> 0:01:08.840
<v Speaker 2>There's been a lot of talk about your bullpen. For

0:01:08.920 --> 0:01:11.520
<v Speaker 2>those guys to come out of there tonight and keep

0:01:11.520 --> 0:01:13.920
<v Speaker 2>the gig where it was, to give you another opportunity.

0:01:14.600 --> 0:01:16.800
<v Speaker 2>How much confidence do you have in those guys.

0:01:17.080 --> 0:01:21.240
<v Speaker 1>I've always had confidence, man Thlizard, my guys, I trust them.

0:01:21.480 --> 0:01:24.080
<v Speaker 1>You know, it doesn't even really matter if things don't

0:01:24.080 --> 0:01:27.360
<v Speaker 1>go their way. They in the postseason, you know, everybody

0:01:27.400 --> 0:01:31.000
<v Speaker 1>starts at zero, and yeah you can say whatever, like

0:01:31.440 --> 0:01:34.240
<v Speaker 1>one inning year winning there. But you know, we got

0:01:34.280 --> 0:01:36.520
<v Speaker 1>some really good arms back there. We got some stuff

0:01:36.520 --> 0:01:39.320
<v Speaker 1>back there, and in the postseason, that's that's all you need.

0:01:39.360 --> 0:01:41.720
<v Speaker 1>You need stuff. You need strikes, and if we're throwing strikes,

0:01:41.720 --> 0:01:44.000
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna be all right. And I mean, our hard

0:01:44.040 --> 0:01:46.400
<v Speaker 1>pitching was I think our pitching deserves all the credit

0:01:46.400 --> 0:01:48.640
<v Speaker 1>in the series. If it wasn't for this pitching that

0:01:48.680 --> 0:01:52.720
<v Speaker 1>we had throughout four games, we wouldn't meet in this

0:01:52.760 --> 0:01:57.200
<v Speaker 1>position right now, celebrating. It seemed like they were only

0:01:57.240 --> 0:02:01.320
<v Speaker 1>able to score in like one hitting every game. They

0:02:01.360 --> 0:02:04.160
<v Speaker 1>only scored in two innings. Last night tonight they only

0:02:04.200 --> 0:02:06.800
<v Speaker 1>scored one run. So that that just that's the testament

0:02:06.840 --> 0:02:10.079
<v Speaker 1>of of our pitching. Man. I think we we could

0:02:10.120 --> 0:02:12.560
<v Speaker 1>have won these games a little more easier. But you know,

0:02:12.600 --> 0:02:14.360
<v Speaker 1>they did a great job on their pitching side, and

0:02:14.480 --> 0:02:17.040
<v Speaker 1>our bats didn't really do much. But all credits are pitching.

0:02:17.080 --> 0:02:19.160
<v Speaker 1>If it was we're pitching, we wouldn't be celebrating right now.

0:02:19.360 --> 0:02:21.440
<v Speaker 2>You deserve to get credit for being known as an

0:02:21.440 --> 0:02:24.200
<v Speaker 2>October player. Well, what can you say about the other

0:02:24.280 --> 0:02:27.400
<v Speaker 2>guys like Taosta and Tommy? Seems like you have a

0:02:27.440 --> 0:02:28.600
<v Speaker 2>lot of those type of guys.

0:02:29.240 --> 0:02:31.480
<v Speaker 1>You know, we had a When you look at the

0:02:31.520 --> 0:02:35.360
<v Speaker 1>position player side, a lot of us are back from

0:02:35.480 --> 0:02:37.120
<v Speaker 1>last year. A lot of us are back from a

0:02:37.160 --> 0:02:40.360
<v Speaker 1>couple of years. So you know, two years ago we

0:02:40.400 --> 0:02:43.160
<v Speaker 1>went through the worst. Last year we went through the best.

0:02:44.000 --> 0:02:45.880
<v Speaker 1>So when you go through the worst and you can

0:02:45.880 --> 0:02:48.119
<v Speaker 1>go through the best, you know, you learn a lot

0:02:48.480 --> 0:02:52.240
<v Speaker 1>about each other. You you you you learn to care

0:02:52.320 --> 0:02:54.880
<v Speaker 1>more and more about about each other as teammates. As

0:02:54.880 --> 0:02:58.519
<v Speaker 1>a team and uh, you know, we're just a team

0:02:58.760 --> 0:03:01.000
<v Speaker 1>that we're gonna on a way to figure out I

0:03:01.080 --> 0:03:03.560
<v Speaker 1>win a ball game, and you know, we we didn't

0:03:03.600 --> 0:03:07.200
<v Speaker 1>really have to slug this series, but we found ways

0:03:07.200 --> 0:03:10.160
<v Speaker 1>to score a run whether it it's an error or

0:03:10.160 --> 0:03:12.720
<v Speaker 1>whatever it was, but putting the ball in play always

0:03:12.800 --> 0:03:15.239
<v Speaker 1>it's just good things since to happen. And that's kind

0:03:15.240 --> 0:03:16.760
<v Speaker 1>of what we did. We took the league game too

0:03:16.760 --> 0:03:19.520
<v Speaker 1>by putting the ball in play. We we won the

0:03:19.520 --> 0:03:22.880
<v Speaker 1>game by putting the ball in play in a night. Yeah,

0:03:22.880 --> 0:03:24.680
<v Speaker 1>we've gone through a lot together as a group, so

0:03:25.720 --> 0:03:28.359
<v Speaker 1>we we just we there's this trust in each other

0:03:28.400 --> 0:03:30.480
<v Speaker 1>that we have that you know, if you don't get

0:03:30.480 --> 0:03:32.280
<v Speaker 1>it done, then the guy behind you is gonna do it.

0:03:32.840 --> 0:03:34.720
<v Speaker 1>I think that speaks volumes about our group.

0:03:34.760 --> 0:03:39.960
<v Speaker 2>And again, all credits work Pitt to congratulations. We'll see

0:03:40.000 --> 0:03:42.680
<v Speaker 2>you either here with Chicago or in Milwaukee.

0:03:43.200 --> 0:03:43.720
<v Speaker 1>Thanks Dave,
