A man that needs no introduction, Dave Roberts, 5 00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:28,840 Speaker 1: the manager of the team, joining us now. 6 00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:32,319 Speaker 2: I'm Alana Rizzo. Alongside with Clint Psias and Katie wou 7 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:36,480 Speaker 2: we are the hosts of Dodgers' Territory for the upcoming season. Dave, 8 00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:39,040 Speaker 2: thank you for doing this. Appreciate it very much. There's 9 00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 2: so much to talk about with the upcoming season. But 10 00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:44,760 Speaker 2: we want to take you back to the World Series 11 00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 2: last year, which one of the best World Series that 12 00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:49,760 Speaker 2: certainly I have ever seen. Of Course, it ended in 13 00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:51,600 Speaker 2: the right way, right, so it's a good World Series 14 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:55,560 Speaker 2: for us. But I want to go back to Game 15 00:00:55,600 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 2: one and just the mentality and the mind set of 16 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 2: going up against naturally the best club in the American 17 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 2: League in the Toronto Blue Jays. But what did you 18 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 2: think going into that series of the way that we're 19 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:08,839 Speaker 2: going to win this is. 20 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:12,360 Speaker 3: How the way we're going to win this. 21 00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 4: I felt that the Blue Jays didn't get the didn't 22 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:20,120 Speaker 4: get enough credit kind of nationwide about how good they 23 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 4: were of a ball club, very gritty, very tough team. 24 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:29,000 Speaker 4: I thought, I thought we would perform better offensively against 25 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:33,000 Speaker 4: their pitching staff, but I just felt that we were 26 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 4: going to be in for a dogfight, and so you 27 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:40,680 Speaker 4: try to win those games at home. And like I said, 28 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 4: I didn't expect us to not perform offensively, but we 29 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:47,440 Speaker 4: really played defense really well, we pitched really. 30 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 3: Well, and. 31 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 4: It was I'm looking forward to digging into this World 32 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 4: Series because I haven't, truth be told, I haven't gone 33 00:01:56,240 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 4: back and replayed Game one, three, five, seven, seven, all 34 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 4: that stuff. So this would be good for my recall 35 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 4: to having this conversation. 36 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 5: I mean it worked for us last year too. You know, 37 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 5: you win a World Series again. After we talk about 38 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:13,799 Speaker 5: twenty twenty four, this one it seemed, I don't want 39 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:16,359 Speaker 5: to say, easier in some ways, but also a lot 40 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 5: more stressful in other ways. I mean, obviously getting to 41 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 5: the World Series, I don't want it's not a cakewalk. 42 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 5: Every team in baseball is very good, but you guys, 43 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 5: maybe you mentioned there, kind of face a little bit 44 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:30,079 Speaker 5: of a sucker punch meeting those Toronto Blue Jays, a 45 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 5: little bit better that splitter from everybody who was working 46 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 5: very much. We talked last year about baseball's kind of 47 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 5: funny because something that maybe would have gone against you 48 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:44,640 Speaker 5: guys six seven, eight years ago, it seemed like it 49 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 5: fell your way. This last postseason. Baseball just weird. Is 50 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 5: it something where maybe you're managing different with the gut, 51 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 5: the heart, all that kind of stuff. What can you 52 00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 5: kind of say. I'm probably not articulating this well because 53 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,840 Speaker 5: I don't want to take up everybody's time, But you 54 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 5: know what changes between a twenty seventeen, eighteen, twenties nineteen 55 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 5: postseasons to being able to put it all together? 56 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 4: And yeah, you know what? And I don't know that answer. 57 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 4: I think that's kind of a great thing about baseball, 58 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 4: where it is so unpredictable and there are a lot 59 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 4: of different pressure points in series, and you can look 60 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,079 Speaker 4: back and we can do a show where you're talking 61 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:32,520 Speaker 4: about sixteen, seventeen, eighteen. Every single year there are pressure 62 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 4: points that went our way, decisions that I made that 63 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 4: went well, and decisions I made that didn't go well, 64 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 4: and then they're looked at as good decisions or bad decisions. 65 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 4: But yeah, in the past couple years. You need breaks too, 66 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 4: So I don't think that I overhauled kind of the 67 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 4: way I manage. But I do believe that I have 68 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 4: really gone ahead and trusted players more than I have 69 00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 4: and that kind of comes with experience. But again, the 70 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 4: ball gets stuck in the outfield wall a line drive 71 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 4: right at Max Muncy. When Blake comes in and you 72 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 4: know that ball is down the line. It's a different series, 73 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 4: and so there's a lot of things that happened that 74 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:15,839 Speaker 4: have to happen for you to win a championship. 75 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 6: So I'm my first game of the World Series is 76 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 6: not Game one. I was still doing Cardinals, but knew 77 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 6: I was coming to Dodgers, so I hopped in on 78 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:29,280 Speaker 6: Game three, which I may. 79 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:32,039 Speaker 3: Did you did you last eighteen innings? 80 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 7: Yeah? 81 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 6: I essentially had two games, of course, but to make 82 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 6: up for the two games that I missed, they put 83 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 6: two games into one. And as I'm watching Game three 84 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,120 Speaker 6: and we're there's in a different press box, we're up 85 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 6: in like left field, and I think the story by 86 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,280 Speaker 6: the seventh inning is going to be of Tawny's two homers. 87 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 6: And never did I think the story was going to 88 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 6: be a marathon eighteen inning game. As you're watching this 89 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 6: game transpire, especially when you get to like the thirteenth 90 00:04:57,960 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 6: inning and you realize this, this is never going to end. 91 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 6: We're going to be here for the rest of time. 92 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 6: How do you I mean, I think Andrew Friedman even 93 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 6: came out and that was the game where he actually 94 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 6: threw a bar stool because he was convinced that, you know, 95 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 6: it was just so frustrated or all the emotions of 96 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:13,839 Speaker 6: this game never ending. 97 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:15,480 Speaker 7: How do you manage that side of it? 98 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 6: And did it get to a point where you were like, 99 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 6: oh my gosh, this will never this will never end. 100 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 4: I had thoughts that it was never going to end. 101 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 4: I think you're managing the game first and foremost, But 102 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 4: there was a point where I was really considering having 103 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 4: I don't know if it was migey Ro or Kiki 104 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,720 Speaker 4: was still in the game and having them come out 105 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 4: and pitch after Will Climb, because you're also trying to 106 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 4: appreciate that you still got to win four games in 107 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:47,920 Speaker 4: this seven game series, albeit the World Series, and there 108 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 4: was an attrition factor going on in that game, and 109 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 4: certainly with the pitching and so knowing also Shohey had 110 00:05:56,440 --> 00:06:01,040 Speaker 4: to pitch the next day or actually it was past midnight, 111 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:04,280 Speaker 4: so that same night, and Will Smith was going to 112 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 4: catch the next night or that same night, and so 113 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 4: I'm also thinking about attrition, and so that was kind 114 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:15,839 Speaker 4: of got me a little anxious. Very grateful that Freddie 115 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,720 Speaker 4: hit the homer in the eighteenth but Yamamoto, I mean, 116 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 4: you wonder what would have changed if we didn't win 117 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:25,040 Speaker 4: it right there, and Yamamoto had to pitch that game. 118 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 4: But yeah, there was it was up and down, and 119 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 4: you want to win them all. But I think at 120 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 4: a certain point I just wanted the game to end. 121 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 2: I remember Ken Rosenthal, Dave was reporting during the game 122 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 2: because obviously he's a sideline reporter for Fox, that you 123 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,839 Speaker 2: would consider using a position player to come in and 124 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 2: pitch because you're trying, you're not just managing. Of course, 125 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 2: for that one, you have to think about the rest 126 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,159 Speaker 2: of the series. Did you ever think there'd be a 127 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:49,719 Speaker 2: time in your life as a manager where a position 128 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 2: player might be pitching for your club in the World 129 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 2: Series and try to continue to force it? 130 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,719 Speaker 4: Absolutely not that one. I don't think that had been 131 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:02,159 Speaker 4: received well on social you know, but I think that 132 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 4: if you look back, you know, and I'm managing the 133 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 4: postseason where you know, certain times and people hate saying it, 134 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 4: but you gotta punt, and you got to you gotta 135 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 4: try to win a series, and so at that point 136 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 4: in time, you're trying to net out positives and negatives. 137 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,360 Speaker 4: But I did get to the point after talking to 138 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 4: Yamamoto that he was ready and he was I was 139 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 4: willing to kind of fire that bullet if we needed to. 140 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 4: But yeah, al I never thought even considering a position 141 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 4: player in a World Series game. 142 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 5: And I remember looking over the railing there in the 143 00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 5: auxiliary press box seeing I'm a Mota. I see the 144 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 5: intent change in his throat. I'm like, oh shit, this 145 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 5: could be real, this could be really Thank God for 146 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 5: will Climb. 147 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 3: What that kid did, it's amazing. And he blacked out. 148 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 4: And so that's sometimes you know, you can't overthink things, 149 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 4: and it was in the moment, and you know, but 150 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 4: it is a testament to when you don't give yourself 151 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 4: an out. 152 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 3: And I've even talked to him this this spring. 153 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 4: And had him talk to the team about you know, 154 00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 4: when you think, when you know you're the last guy available, 155 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 4: then you've got to be more efficient. You can't look 156 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 4: to the pen just for someone to save you. So 157 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 4: this is situation he's never been in, might never be 158 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 4: in again. And so the way he performed, we certainly 159 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 4: don't win that game without him, and maybe not the 160 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 4: World Series because obviously after that game we ended up 161 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 4: dropping two more at home. So always be a Willklin fan. 162 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, there you go. 163 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 7: This is what I think everyone wants to know. 164 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 6: If you had to choose between Migi Row and keyk 165 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,200 Speaker 6: who's taken the ball in that situation. 166 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 3: You know what I would say. 167 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,679 Speaker 4: I know one guy was in the game, one goes out, 168 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,760 Speaker 4: But if I had to pick one, I got Migi 169 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 4: Row right now. Key K is he's gone gone cold 170 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 4: recently kitchen, so he's given up walks and some homers. 171 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 3: So I'd go to togu ro. 172 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 5: Started good, It started great, ye then yeah, a little 173 00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 5: too Froggy. 174 00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 3: That's right. That's right. 175 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,679 Speaker 2: Mindset after game five, you guys are going back to Toronto. 176 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 2: You need to win both on the road. 177 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 4: Mindset. After game five. Was the first thing I did 178 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:10,880 Speaker 4: after we lost that game was I texted Meggiro and said, 179 00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 4: you're starting game six. So that was the first thing 180 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:17,440 Speaker 4: I did. I just felt we needed some infusion of 181 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:21,079 Speaker 4: meg Euro in game six, and then I sent out 182 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 4: a text letting the guys know that I want everyone 183 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 4: to have we get to Toronto and then have an 184 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 4: off day so there's no workout, no problem. But then 185 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:33,680 Speaker 4: shortly thereafter they reached back out to me saying the 186 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:36,720 Speaker 4: veteran guy is saying, appreciate it, but we want to go. 187 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 4: We want to work out. We've come this far, we 188 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 4: want to work out. And so at that point in time, 189 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:45,640 Speaker 4: I'm on the plane, I'm giddy excited that our guys 190 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 4: want to work out and not take the option to 191 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 4: not practice. And so everyone shows up, got their work in, 192 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 4: and I felt better about that. And this group, a 193 00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 4: lot of this group has played an elimination game on 194 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:04,080 Speaker 4: the road, so we've been there. So I wasn't worried 195 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:08,960 Speaker 4: about the moment getting too big. I was happy that 196 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 4: Yama was starting, and I just felt if we could 197 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 4: just sort of hang in there, we're going to find 198 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 4: a way to win. And again, going back to Miggy, 199 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 4: I just felt he made some great plays defensively, got 200 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 4: to hit that night, and I just felt having a 201 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 4: guy like that inserted into the lineup he's gonna not literally, 202 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 4: but he will die on the field to try to 203 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 4: get us to win a game. 204 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 3: And so I was excited about that. 205 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 5: Absolutely need to expand more on you know NIGGI roeing 206 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 5: in that lineup. But first that break between games five 207 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 5: game six, the boys want to go to the ballpark, 208 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 5: you're there. How much of the race between Hessong and 209 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:53,560 Speaker 5: I know you've talked a lot about this already a camp, 210 00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 5: It's been asked a lot, but the race between Dave Roberts, 211 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 5: hes On Kim, how much of that was kind of 212 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 5: spur of the moment, any of that kind of of 213 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 5: premeditated a little bit here? Oh did you ever find 214 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:04,679 Speaker 5: the sniper that got you? 215 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:08,040 Speaker 3: That's another Yeah, that was a pretty good face plan. 216 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,319 Speaker 5: Banged up was a knee hamstring where it. 217 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:17,319 Speaker 4: Was hamstring, so I didn't find the sniper. So premeditator. 218 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 4: I think it started where I was so excited about 219 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,439 Speaker 4: our guys want end up practice. So then I was excited, 220 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:27,320 Speaker 4: and then as I got out there, the mood was fine, 221 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 4: and I just wanted to jazz it up a little bit, 222 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 4: add a little levity, and so I felt that why 223 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:39,720 Speaker 4: not challenge our fastest runner to a foot race, and 224 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 4: I didn't expect to win, but I didn't expect to 225 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:46,200 Speaker 4: do a face plant. But I think my purpose was 226 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,760 Speaker 4: served and everyone had fun. There was a little levity, 227 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:52,080 Speaker 4: and then we went back to work. So some of 228 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 4: it was premeditated, but it just didn't The plan wasn't exactly, 229 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:56,720 Speaker 4: didn't plout exactly as I wanted. 230 00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:59,080 Speaker 5: Well, that was that was twenty twenty five, it's not 231 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:00,440 Speaker 5: two thousand and fourty doc. 232 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 3: That's right, that's right. The legs ain't doing what they do. 233 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,320 Speaker 4: But the thing is always clinton is that your brain, 234 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 4: as I'm fifty three and now your brain still thinks 235 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 4: that it's like twenty seven. 236 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:11,959 Speaker 3: Twenty eight, and you'll learn that when you get older. 237 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 3: But then your body does it right, but you still 238 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 3: earn that place. 239 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,439 Speaker 4: But let me tell you right now, I will never 240 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:20,319 Speaker 4: do a full sprint, a full speed sprint ever again, 241 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 4: because my body is fifty three. 242 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 3: Breaking news. 243 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:25,200 Speaker 6: You were fresh out of the gate, though, like you 244 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 6: start out hot. I think the underrated part of this. 245 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 6: As I saw you the next day, they're golf carting 246 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:32,840 Speaker 6: you around. You've still actually had dirt on your hat 247 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:34,840 Speaker 6: from the face plant, and I was like that's the 248 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 6: gamer right there. 249 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 3: That's right. 250 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 4: And I did take a tourtoll shot too, so I 251 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 4: was like, guys are doing tourtoo shots and do whatever 252 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:43,319 Speaker 4: they could to get through the series of like. 253 00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 5: Sign me up on then either way, Game six and 254 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 5: seven was gonna feel good, dude. 255 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:50,320 Speaker 3: That's right, that's right. I felt great, man. 256 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:52,640 Speaker 6: So let's talk about a little bit about game six, 257 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 6: specifically the ending because there and we've talked about this 258 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 6: at camp already, just the different elements that could have 259 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 6: Kno gone your way and it changes everything. But when 260 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:05,760 Speaker 6: the ball gets stuck under the wall, what is your 261 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:06,480 Speaker 6: initial reaction? 262 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 7: What did you want to see from Justin Dean? And 263 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:10,199 Speaker 7: how does that play out in real time? 264 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:13,280 Speaker 6: Reacting to something that we would probably never see again 265 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:13,960 Speaker 6: in that situation. 266 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that I was. I was very happy 267 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:19,320 Speaker 4: to see that he put his hands up. But I 268 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 4: will say, as the rule plays, if the ball is lodged, 269 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 4: they will look at it. But Kei, k and Justin 270 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:28,720 Speaker 4: put their hands up, and so it was a ground 271 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:32,560 Speaker 4: rule double. I felt good about that. I was so shocked. 272 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:34,520 Speaker 4: But I think for me is once that ball is hit, 273 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 4: I'm thinking about the next move. So to be quite 274 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 4: honest with you, I'm not really reacting to the play. 275 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 4: I'm trying to figure out, Okay, do I need to 276 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:47,559 Speaker 4: have the infield in, do I need to get somebody 277 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 4: else going, you know, who's coming up in the top 278 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 4: half of the inning, So all those things, But it 279 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,560 Speaker 4: was it was just a really heavy play, And that's 280 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 4: something that I take a lot of pride in and 281 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 4: talking to our guys, not just about the talent, but 282 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 4: being heady baseball players and knowing the rules, knowing you know, 283 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:10,320 Speaker 4: Miguel Rojas, we practice the infield in all the time, 284 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 4: and so to make an accurate throw there. So yeah, 285 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 4: Game six, you know all the pitchers that we used, 286 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 4: the different situations. So but to look back at that, though, Katie, 287 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,440 Speaker 4: it was it was a heady play by Ki k 288 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 4: a n justin talking about. 289 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 2: The next move. How quickly do you have to make decisions. 290 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 4: Very quickly because in the postseason, obviously everything happens faster, 291 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 4: and you know, on the margins everything matters, and you know, 292 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 4: not jumping ahead. But Game seven, when Miggi hit the homer, 293 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 4: that was the only time that postseason where I really 294 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 4: turned into a fan because as a manager, you've got 295 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 4: to expect good things happen, bad things to kind of 296 00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 4: how do you react or respond right, And so that's 297 00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 4: something that I wasn't expecting. So once he hit that homer, 298 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 4: I just turned into a fanboy. And so but you've 299 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 4: got to be steps ahead of it, because you know, 300 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 4: I think that's why people I probably get frustrated with me. 301 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 4: You know that I don't show a lot of reactions 302 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 4: because I'm always thinking about the next move, the next move, 303 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 4: and then once you put your fan hat on, you're 304 00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 4: not prepared for what outcome has happening in real time. 305 00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 2: Migail Rojas was on the show the other day and 306 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 2: he said when he was in the on deck circle, 307 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:32,000 Speaker 2: he looked back looking for Danny Lamb and the Dodgers' 308 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 2: bench coach, and he had been pinch hit for in 309 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 2: his career hundreds of times. He looked back to see 310 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 2: if Danny was going to call him back for a 311 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 2: pinch hitter. Danny wasn't there. He said, this at bat 312 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:43,440 Speaker 2: is mine and he couldn't It wasn't that he couldn't 313 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,920 Speaker 2: believe it, but you telling him that he was going 314 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 2: to start six and then seven, of course, was such 315 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:53,840 Speaker 2: a huge moment for him and probably the most unsuspecting 316 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:55,880 Speaker 2: guy to hit a home run. He was not a 317 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 2: home run hitter to hit it in that moment. What 318 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 2: was bigger for you, the home run or the defensive 319 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 2: play that he made. 320 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 4: I think the home run because I think that we 321 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 4: can all count on Miggy's defense, and that's why, honestly 322 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 4: why he was inserted in the game, and I just 323 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 4: felt that he was going to do something helped the 324 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 4: Dodgers win the home run because I talk a lot 325 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 4: about the game honorship and how or when I don't know, 326 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:28,400 Speaker 4: but Miggie, to his credit, all season long, was a 327 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 4: mentor to guy as a cheerleader, played for us when 328 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:34,400 Speaker 4: we needed him, and then then you get to the postseason, 329 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,200 Speaker 4: and then he's not playing, not starting, and then when 330 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 4: I called on him, he was ready. And so for 331 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 4: him to get his flowers, his moment on a big 332 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:44,680 Speaker 4: on a on a big in a big spot I 333 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 4: always had for him, That's something that's going to be 334 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:49,440 Speaker 4: talked about for years, and I think that him doing 335 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 4: things the right way the game honored him in that moment. 336 00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:56,760 Speaker 4: So yeah, that's something that I'm going to really be 337 00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:57,720 Speaker 4: really proud of. 338 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 5: The immediate impact he made. Obviously, Game seven makes an 339 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:06,199 Speaker 5: insane scoop from a heady play from key K double play. 340 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 5: You're like, oh man, this could be real Homer defensive 341 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 5: play in Game seven to keep things alive. What was 342 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:17,200 Speaker 5: kind of the gut the heart telling you that now 343 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:19,359 Speaker 5: is the time to pull the MIGGI lever. 344 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:23,199 Speaker 4: I think you know nothing against Andy at all. Andy 345 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,160 Speaker 4: was a big part of getting us there. I think 346 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:29,280 Speaker 4: for me it's you don't know until you know. And 347 00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:35,440 Speaker 4: I say that and experience Andy next year, the year 348 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:38,360 Speaker 4: is following, and throughout his career he's going to know 349 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 4: how fleeting or how important, how much he's going to 350 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:45,920 Speaker 4: care more about the postseason as you get more experienced. 351 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:49,160 Speaker 4: And so now when you're talking about Miguel Rojas, he's 352 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,399 Speaker 4: had a ten year career, he's talking about he's going 353 00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:54,440 Speaker 4: to retire in twenty twenty six. Twenty twenty five could 354 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:57,159 Speaker 4: have been his last year with the Dodgers. So I 355 00:17:57,320 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 4: wanted to bet on guys that it meant everything to them. 356 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:04,880 Speaker 4: And so again, nothing against Andy, but I just felt 357 00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:07,440 Speaker 4: right there he was scuffling at the plate. Tommy at 358 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,240 Speaker 4: that point in time, we felt he could go back 359 00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 4: out there and play center field. And you know, like 360 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:15,159 Speaker 4: I said, Miggy was going to do anything he could 361 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:17,920 Speaker 4: help us on both sides of the baseball in Game 362 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:20,359 Speaker 4: six and seven. So when you're riding a lineup out, 363 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:24,040 Speaker 4: I said, there's nine guys that I felt were of 364 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:26,919 Speaker 4: that same mind, and I was going to bet on 365 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:28,439 Speaker 4: that when. 366 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 6: You look at the pitching that you had to manage 367 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 6: in six and seven, I mean, your Game seven starter 368 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 6: is pitching the ninth inning all of a sudden and 369 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:35,320 Speaker 6: Tyler Glass. 370 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,240 Speaker 7: Now in Game six, you have. 371 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 6: All hands on deck situation with your rotation as your bullpen. 372 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,320 Speaker 6: How do you looking at you know only guys only 373 00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:47,399 Speaker 6: have a couple innings at this point, you also have 374 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:49,679 Speaker 6: Yamamoto and so aren't sure on what that looks like. 375 00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:53,080 Speaker 6: How do you manage ahead while also having to react 376 00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:55,639 Speaker 6: in real time to these guys where everything is on 377 00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:57,680 Speaker 6: the line and you need all of them. 378 00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:01,639 Speaker 4: I think for me, there was a certain amount of 379 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 4: guys that I was going to use in Game seven 380 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:07,880 Speaker 4: and even in Game six, to be quite frank, because 381 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:10,400 Speaker 4: it was elimination. So I think that there's a certain 382 00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:11,960 Speaker 4: amount of guys I was going to use. And then 383 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 4: so now once you have a certain group of guys 384 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 4: that you're going to use, then you've got to figure 385 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:23,119 Speaker 4: out how to stagger those innings out and way somebody 386 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 4: not going being a sharp versus introducing somebody else that 387 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 4: you don't envision being a part of that equation. So 388 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:33,720 Speaker 4: that's kind of where my head is at. And then 389 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 4: you know, because even show Hey, for example, I knew 390 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,639 Speaker 4: that he didn't have his best stuff, but for me 391 00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:43,880 Speaker 4: not to try to get him through three innings potential 392 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:45,800 Speaker 4: could have introduced somebody else that I didn't want to 393 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:50,520 Speaker 4: pitch for usage or for whatever reason. And so you 394 00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:53,480 Speaker 4: still got to cover nine innings. And so I think 395 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 4: for me, it's really just watching to see what the 396 00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 4: guy has, but it's betting on people. If I've learned 397 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 4: anything about the post season, it's you got to bet 398 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:05,040 Speaker 4: on people. And you know, the season is a long season. 399 00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:09,199 Speaker 4: There's ups and downs, it's a marathon, and you have 400 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 4: a lot more latitude and leeway to kind of navigate it. 401 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 4: But the postseason, for me, it's about betting on people. 402 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 4: And my job, the coach's jobs are to get these 403 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 4: guys prepared mentally and physically. You know for that for 404 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,359 Speaker 4: those big spots, because everything is certainly way more magnified. 405 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:27,960 Speaker 2: You bet on people. Kyk is easy to bet on. 406 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 2: There's something intangible about that guy. I mean, there's no 407 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 2: place in the world he needs to be except in 408 00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:35,359 Speaker 2: a Dadger uniform, especially in October. But what was your 409 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:37,920 Speaker 2: reaction when he's running to the ball in the ninth inning, 410 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:40,439 Speaker 2: you kind of see his back. He didn't think he 411 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:43,399 Speaker 2: made the play. Andy Poe has comes up obviously with 412 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:47,480 Speaker 2: the ball. He's Michael, thank god. From your dugout perspective, 413 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:49,880 Speaker 2: what are you thinking when he's running that route. 414 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 4: I was just praying that it stayed in the ballpark. 415 00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:56,399 Speaker 4: That's another play that I thought the game was going 416 00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 4: to be over. And key K, you know, he scooped 417 00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:02,159 Speaker 4: the ball, so key K sort of broke in on 418 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 4: that getting trying to get a good jump on the ball, 419 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:08,919 Speaker 4: and fortunately Andy came out of nowhere. And you know, 420 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 4: you're talking about the moment. It's one of Yeah, key 421 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:16,439 Speaker 4: K thought he lost the World Series. We lost the 422 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:20,000 Speaker 4: World Series, and you know, Andy makes this great play 423 00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:23,399 Speaker 4: and key K's only concern is did you catch the baseball? 424 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:25,600 Speaker 4: And so but it's just it's one of those things 425 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 4: that I think that's why everyone loved that World Series, 426 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 4: because every it just seemed like every player sold out 427 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,359 Speaker 4: on both sides of the baseball and left it all 428 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:33,880 Speaker 4: out there. 429 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 5: Some guy who really sold out left it all out there, 430 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 5: Yoshioba Yamamoto turns out three twenty five, maybe a little 431 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:42,119 Speaker 5: light underpaid. 432 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 3: It was a little light. 433 00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:45,199 Speaker 5: Yeah, made your job a lot easier, made all of 434 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:49,480 Speaker 5: our you know, off season a lot happier. He I 435 00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:51,879 Speaker 5: think he recently said he doesn't know, doesn't want to 436 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:53,960 Speaker 5: stat You just want to be thought of a legend. 437 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 3: Or a hero. Guy is a hero. 438 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:57,439 Speaker 5: What what does it mean to somebody like you and 439 00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:00,199 Speaker 5: to that clubhouse what Yama did to to put that 440 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:01,840 Speaker 5: team on his right shoulder. 441 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 4: I just have the utmost respect for him, and you know, 442 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:12,000 Speaker 4: and also yeah, I mean he was pushed beyond limits. 443 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:16,119 Speaker 4: It just doesn't happen. And you see this, you know, 444 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 4: you see the play, the Pie's play right there. But 445 00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 4: with Yamamoto, did I think that he said it early on, 446 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 4: Losing is not an option, and we needed every single 447 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 4: inning and performance that he gave us to get through. 448 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:34,120 Speaker 4: You know, you're talking about Milwaukee, Philly and then Obviously, 449 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:36,720 Speaker 4: the World Series what he did will be. 450 00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:37,880 Speaker 3: Talked about for years. 451 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,359 Speaker 4: But what I will say is that I respect the 452 00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:42,600 Speaker 4: way that he kind of wants to put that in 453 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 4: the past to focus on this year. And you know, 454 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:49,159 Speaker 4: that's what the great ones do. You're always trying to 455 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:52,160 Speaker 4: push yourself and not you know, rest on your laurels. 456 00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:53,639 Speaker 3: And so I respect that. 457 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:55,919 Speaker 4: And but yeah, we're going to be talking about his 458 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:59,240 Speaker 4: performance forever, and we're lucky it happened in that three 459 00:22:59,320 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 4: twenty five. 460 00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:01,240 Speaker 3: It seems like a bargain. 461 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:03,720 Speaker 5: Now, I don't want you guys to stop winning World Series, 462 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 5: but if you do, we could have that. You know, 463 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 5: we saw a lot of Kirk Gibson, Homer on the 464 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:11,240 Speaker 5: board there at Dodger Stadium. We could see some Yamamoto 465 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:13,000 Speaker 5: on there. App So you keep winning. I guess you 466 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:13,800 Speaker 5: guys can keep winning. 467 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:14,760 Speaker 3: That's right. That's right. 468 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:15,200 Speaker 7: Dade. 469 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:18,200 Speaker 6: When was when did you decide that Yamamoto was going 470 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:20,760 Speaker 6: to be available? And how much of that was Blake 471 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 6: Snell really gutting it out before? Because I don't think, 472 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:26,159 Speaker 6: and I think Blake has talked about this like he 473 00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 6: really had to grind through that arm was that was 474 00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 6: all he had so when did you decide, Okay, y'all's 475 00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:32,360 Speaker 6: coming in. 476 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:36,960 Speaker 4: Well, I knew that he was going to pitch that night. 477 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:41,320 Speaker 4: Yachta Sinsey told Mark Pryor that he was going to 478 00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:45,239 Speaker 4: be available, and so that was news to me. I 479 00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 4: was I was like, Okay, so if he's available, then 480 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 4: I'm going to find a way. 481 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, what a weapon. 482 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 4: And I think for me is I was going to 483 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:55,919 Speaker 4: find a way to get him in the game. And 484 00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 4: then kind of my point earlier was I knew he 485 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 4: only had so many bullets, so how can when can 486 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 4: I deploy him? So with Glass and Robo and Blake, 487 00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:12,080 Speaker 4: I just felt at that point in time, Blake gave 488 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:16,879 Speaker 4: us everything he had. He was on fumes and again 489 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:20,159 Speaker 4: you're talking about elimination game. I needed to get out 490 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:23,160 Speaker 4: of that inning, and I felt in that spot Yama 491 00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 4: was the best person to get us out of the inning, 492 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 4: because I think in the postseason you kind of you 493 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:31,159 Speaker 4: can't look too far ahead because every moment could be 494 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:34,040 Speaker 4: the game. And so at that moment, I just felt 495 00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:36,080 Speaker 4: that Yama was the guy, and then I was going 496 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 4: to ride him for as long as I could. And 497 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 4: I think after that first one in a third or 498 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:45,600 Speaker 4: something he said to me, daijo bu, like I'm good, 499 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:48,880 Speaker 4: I'm good. And then as a manager, I'm looking at 500 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:52,480 Speaker 4: my pictures in particular for them to look at me 501 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 4: and to make eye contact, because I think that that's 502 00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 4: something that is telling for a manager when the pictures 503 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 4: looking for eye contact versus not looking for eye contact, 504 00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 4: saying that they wanted to stay in the game. And 505 00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:08,639 Speaker 4: so he was not looking my way, so I felt 506 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 4: confident that he was. 507 00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:10,880 Speaker 3: Still the right guy. 508 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 2: Which parade was better. 509 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 4: The second one because it was the most recent, I think, yeah, 510 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:25,080 Speaker 4: that's right. That was my next answer, you know what, 511 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:27,159 Speaker 4: I think the first one, the first one was awesome. 512 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:32,800 Speaker 4: I think, gosh, dang it, man, I just the first 513 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:34,639 Speaker 4: one was great. The second one was great. There was 514 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 4: more people for the second one. I just you can 515 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:43,440 Speaker 4: really when you're in the bubble of playing or coaching, 516 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 4: you can't really appreciate how many people are enjoying those 517 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,919 Speaker 4: moments with you. And then so to then be on 518 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 4: the streets in Los Angeles and to see tears and cheers, 519 00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:58,960 Speaker 4: then you can sort of appreciate, oh my god, these 520 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 4: people were living and dying and how massive it is. 521 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 4: So that's something that's really eye opening, the passion, the 522 00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 4: love for the Dodgers, and you know, the city's gone 523 00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:14,919 Speaker 4: through a lot, the country's gone through a lot. But 524 00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:17,280 Speaker 4: you know, I've heard from a lot of people that 525 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 4: aren't even sports fans or dog fans like that World Series. 526 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:22,719 Speaker 4: I just could not. I was glued to the TV. 527 00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:25,200 Speaker 4: And that's a credit to all of us. 528 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 5: Best World series I've ever seen, and i'n't seen a 529 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 5: lot of them, but I've seen a lot of them. 530 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:31,800 Speaker 3: Let's spin it forward. 531 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:36,119 Speaker 5: I watched your your speech here Day one Full Squad 532 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 5: got me wanting to run through a wall. 533 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 3: You sound like a. 534 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:43,840 Speaker 5: Guy that's been through quite f and literally everything, and 535 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 5: you were able to pull receipts and tell guys, you 536 00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 5: know the keyk play a Miggey role play guys playing 537 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 5: the game. 538 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:50,200 Speaker 3: The right way. 539 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:55,440 Speaker 5: Is that kind of what it is? Just you've been 540 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 5: through it all now, like that was the most I'm 541 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 5: trying to think the right word for this. You were 542 00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:04,240 Speaker 5: locked in, you were laser focused in that messaging, and 543 00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 5: you're coming off of back to back World series. Maybe 544 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:09,120 Speaker 5: last year is a little bit of let's not have 545 00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 5: the World series hangover. Now you know how to deal 546 00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 5: with that. Is that a little bit of the messaging 547 00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:17,960 Speaker 5: there you put in day one, We've seen it. This 548 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 5: is what I'm telling you, this is real. Every guy 549 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,680 Speaker 5: in this clubhouse, you mean something to this team, speak 550 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:24,000 Speaker 5: a little bit about your message there. 551 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:24,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what. 552 00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:32,639 Speaker 4: I think, there's nothing more powerful than experience and having 553 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:36,199 Speaker 4: a lot of our guys go through and see it 554 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:40,960 Speaker 4: come to pass, you know, using you know, the fifty 555 00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 4: ninth person in the clubhouse, the sixty fifth person in 556 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:47,200 Speaker 4: the clubhouse to then pitch in a World Series games. 557 00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:50,400 Speaker 4: We've seen that year and year, and so I think 558 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 4: that me bringing that to light lands with everyone in 559 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:58,159 Speaker 4: the room, where obviously Miguel Rojas, a bench player, a 560 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:02,160 Speaker 4: veteran guy, has argued the biggest moment in Dodger history 561 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:07,280 Speaker 4: that happened. So I think that messaging, I think is 562 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:12,240 Speaker 4: easy to kind of make land or have land. I 563 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 4: think for me is just trying to keep guys proactive 564 00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:19,560 Speaker 4: and focused and hungry. I use that analogy about the 565 00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:23,119 Speaker 4: greyhounds and how they kind of race chasing something and 566 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 4: not worrying about what's around them. But also I kind 567 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:30,439 Speaker 4: of the thing I really wanted to get across in 568 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:35,280 Speaker 4: the meeting was you know, competition, real competition is in 569 00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 4: its truest form is when both parties are prepared. And 570 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:47,440 Speaker 4: if you're really really prepared, fear doesn't supersede overtake the 571 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:51,240 Speaker 4: confidence and the joy of competing. And so my challenge 572 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:53,520 Speaker 4: to the guys is really try to dig into your 573 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 4: soul and poke holes in yourself and how can you 574 00:28:57,040 --> 00:29:00,720 Speaker 4: get better? And so then when we're ready to compete 575 00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:05,360 Speaker 4: in the biggest spots, we don't fail. Grounder to Mooky, 576 00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 4: Grounder to Miggy, a Liner soft Liner to Keith k 577 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 4: in between hop to MIGGI to pick it. You know, 578 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 4: Freddy had a big pick off of Tommy Edmund throw 579 00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 4: in Philly. You know, Tommy saves a play going to 580 00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:20,440 Speaker 4: is left to keep the ball in the infield. Those 581 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:23,840 Speaker 4: things happened because we prepare, and so that's kind of 582 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 4: the overarching message I try to give you guys. But 583 00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 4: the easy part for me is every single one of 584 00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:32,959 Speaker 4: those guys believes it themselves, and so that's what's exciting 585 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 4: for me as a manager. 586 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,960 Speaker 6: Well, as we look towards twenty twenty six, one advantage 587 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:40,720 Speaker 6: that this organization has for the first time is you 588 00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:44,800 Speaker 6: can look to see a full season of two way show. 589 00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 7: Heyo Tani, and it's going to be a little different. 590 00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:50,400 Speaker 6: We've talked about the WBC, the preparation starting pitching death 591 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 6: and being conservative with all of your pitchers. What how 592 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,560 Speaker 6: can he as a full two way player really transform 593 00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:00,880 Speaker 6: your season. What are some realistic ex dictations for him 594 00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 6: for a guy that defies all expectations. 595 00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I think it's it's a good question. 596 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 3: I don't. 597 00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:12,920 Speaker 4: I know Shohey is trying to always, you know, strive 598 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:17,080 Speaker 4: to be better. I expect him to throw more innings 599 00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:18,080 Speaker 4: than he did last year. 600 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 3: I don't. 601 00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:21,040 Speaker 4: I have a hard time kind of saying how many 602 00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:23,000 Speaker 4: homers he could hit, or how many runs he can 603 00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:25,680 Speaker 4: drive in, or if he's going to win the Cy Young. 604 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:28,320 Speaker 4: I know his goal is to win the World Series, 605 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:31,080 Speaker 4: to be the best player he can be, And when 606 00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:35,080 Speaker 4: we're talking about his talent, that should be an MVP 607 00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:37,640 Speaker 4: obviously in the conversation, that should be a Cy Young 608 00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 4: in the conversation. So, you know, he's the best player 609 00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 4: that ever played this game. So for him to be 610 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:46,240 Speaker 4: able to stay healthy, keep him on the field, we're 611 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 4: better for it. The fans are certainly better for it. 612 00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 4: But I think with him, anything is possible. Katie, Anything's 613 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:54,280 Speaker 4: possible with that guy. 614 00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:56,640 Speaker 2: You're trying to run it back with a good core 615 00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:59,960 Speaker 2: group of guys. But two huge acquisitions in Kyle Tuck 616 00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:03,240 Speaker 2: and Edwin Diaz. What's been the earliest impact. 617 00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:09,760 Speaker 4: Earliest kind of impact and just seeing is both guys 618 00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:11,400 Speaker 4: are comfortable in their own skin. 619 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:14,840 Speaker 3: I think. I think Kyle. 620 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 4: Had offered opportunities to go elsewhere, wanted to be a 621 00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 4: Dodger and he's a quiet guy. He's not going to 622 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:26,320 Speaker 4: be a sound bite guy. He just wants to play baseball. 623 00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:28,440 Speaker 4: He's a five tool player. He can do it all. 624 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:31,720 Speaker 4: He's going to impact games every night in a lot 625 00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 4: of different ways. But I think that he's not He 626 00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:37,280 Speaker 4: doesn't need to try to fit in because it's just 627 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 4: who he is who he is. I love that Edwin 628 00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:43,880 Speaker 4: Diaz is a guy that's just a lovable type guy. 629 00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 4: He's very accountable, he loves baseball. He committed to coming 630 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:53,040 Speaker 4: on the other side of the country, being from Puerto Rico, 631 00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:55,040 Speaker 4: to play for the Dodgers, to be a part of this. 632 00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:57,960 Speaker 4: He wants to win a championship in the worst way. 633 00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 4: We now have a close who I feel that is 634 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 4: going to free up other guys in our pen. But 635 00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:10,400 Speaker 4: great competitor, great stuff. I can't wait to hear Timmy 636 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:14,040 Speaker 4: or Tommy trumpet when he comes out there. But again, 637 00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:17,160 Speaker 4: he's like fun and lovable when he gets out there, 638 00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:19,480 Speaker 4: he's a savage, and I love those type guys. 639 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:22,760 Speaker 5: I have a piggyback kind of in the same vein 640 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:25,040 Speaker 5: of my previous question. But we've heard a lot about 641 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 5: the target on the Dodgers back. A lot of people 642 00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:29,480 Speaker 5: like to say the Dodgers are ruining baseball when I 643 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:33,720 Speaker 5: can get into that BS because you're not. Does you 644 00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 5: feel the target anymore? Is it just you wake up, 645 00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 5: You're used to it, you seeing the red dot on 646 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:39,560 Speaker 5: your chest. 647 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:44,440 Speaker 4: I think I'm used to it. It's been that way. 648 00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:46,440 Speaker 4: I feel it's been that way since we've been here, 649 00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 4: but certainly since I've been here. But certainly, you know, 650 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 4: when you win a championship, then people want to take 651 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:56,200 Speaker 4: what's yours. And I just feel really good and confident 652 00:32:56,320 --> 00:33:00,720 Speaker 4: that our guys have embraced that and we're not going 653 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:02,840 Speaker 4: to relinquish it. We're not going to give it away. 654 00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:04,760 Speaker 4: Somebody's got to earn it and take it from us, 655 00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:08,000 Speaker 4: but we also understand that there's a lot of work 656 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:10,880 Speaker 4: to be done. So you know, people love to hate 657 00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:14,040 Speaker 4: the Dodgers and that means that we've done some good things. 658 00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:17,240 Speaker 7: Yeah, absolutely, Davids. We look to wrap this up a 659 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:17,640 Speaker 7: little bit. 660 00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:20,360 Speaker 6: When you think about twenty twenty five, is there a 661 00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:23,000 Speaker 6: lasting image one that sticks out to you that kind 662 00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:24,440 Speaker 6: of captures that whole season? 663 00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 4: What captures twenty twenty five? Yeah, there was a certainly 664 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:36,960 Speaker 4: a lot of moments, a lot of great moments, a lot. 665 00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:40,160 Speaker 3: Of you know what, I think. 666 00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:48,160 Speaker 4: We lost in Baltimore, We lost three in Pittsburgh, we 667 00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:51,640 Speaker 4: lost two in Baltimore, and mean the second one was 668 00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:55,840 Speaker 4: after Yamamoto was fantastic and left the game with a 669 00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:58,240 Speaker 4: no hitter or gave up one hit late, and we 670 00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:01,640 Speaker 4: ended up losing that game. The way the guys came 671 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:05,280 Speaker 4: back after that, that's Sunday in Baltimore. Show Hay led 672 00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:09,839 Speaker 4: off with a homer and we just took off from there. 673 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 4: So I think that for me, that was the point 674 00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 4: that our team decided to hit the go button, hit 675 00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:19,359 Speaker 4: the gas and not make excuses. The Padres are at 676 00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:21,960 Speaker 4: our heels. The Dimbacks might have been at our heels, 677 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:25,240 Speaker 4: and we were in it at that point in time, 678 00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 4: but we just took off and we stuck together. So 679 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:31,440 Speaker 4: I think that's one of the hallmarks for our club 680 00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:37,160 Speaker 4: that it's not linear and you know, when it is hot, 681 00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:42,239 Speaker 4: when things aren't good, we stay together and perform. So 682 00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:44,759 Speaker 4: that was something that I really that really sticks sticks out. 683 00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:49,600 Speaker 4: The Tao Homer in Philadelphia was a big one. You know, 684 00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:52,239 Speaker 4: winning in Philly is tough. That team was really good. 685 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:56,960 Speaker 4: It's a hostile environment. How we beat those guys when everyone, 686 00:34:57,040 --> 00:35:00,239 Speaker 4: I think all the pundits had those guys favored last 687 00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:03,840 Speaker 4: year was a big one. But yeah, there were just 688 00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:05,520 Speaker 4: so many moments and I think that you can look 689 00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 4: back at our season and it almost seems like there 690 00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 4: could have been a couple dozen players that had big 691 00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 4: moments for us last year and that that's a lot. 692 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:18,720 Speaker 2: There is no way in the world you thought Miguil 693 00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:22,360 Speaker 2: Rojas was going to hit that Perge chance. 694 00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:23,840 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, exactly. 695 00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:25,759 Speaker 4: That's the thing is that all these people that think 696 00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:29,920 Speaker 4: that analytics is everything, that's a point one chance for 697 00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:32,160 Speaker 4: at Homer. You just got a bet on the person. 698 00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 4: And that's the great thing about our game. It's fun 699 00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:39,120 Speaker 4: and you just never know and the game on our 700 00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:41,800 Speaker 4: media and fortunately for the Dodgers, he's a Dodger. 701 00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:44,279 Speaker 2: We didn't even talk about the wheel play. 702 00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:44,680 Speaker 3: Dave. 703 00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:47,439 Speaker 2: We appreciate you so very much. Thank you so much 704 00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:49,799 Speaker 2: for taking the time and breaking it down. This is 705 00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:51,920 Speaker 2: the stuff the fans love because everyone thinks that they 706 00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:53,919 Speaker 2: can do your job, and it does the hardest job 707 00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:55,800 Speaker 2: in the world. Best of luck on the three peat, 708 00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:57,640 Speaker 2: Good luck all. 709 00:35:57,680 --> 00:35:59,759 Speaker 3: Right, Thank you guys, thanks for having me appreciate you. 710 00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:03,640 Speaker 2: Don't
