1
00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:03.640
<v Speaker 1>Andrew Freeman is being such a huge part of the

2
00:00:03.680 --> 00:00:07.280
<v Speaker 1>dodgers sustained success. Andrew, You've been to the World Series

3
00:00:07.320 --> 00:00:09.759
<v Speaker 1>three times with the Dodgers, you won.

4
00:00:09.720 --> 00:00:13.320
<v Speaker 2>A World Series. How does this one feel for you?

5
00:00:14.359 --> 00:00:14.919
<v Speaker 2>This year?

6
00:00:15.720 --> 00:00:18.239
<v Speaker 3>We have not had easy in the playball because the

7
00:00:18.320 --> 00:00:21.199
<v Speaker 3>amount of adversity is the different things that it pops up,

8
00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:25.760
<v Speaker 3>and the number of contributions from our scouting staff, Blair

9
00:00:25.879 --> 00:00:30.160
<v Speaker 3>Development Don, our major league coaches, our veteran players.

10
00:00:30.480 --> 00:00:33.399
<v Speaker 2>The contributions to get us to this point are.

11
00:00:33.320 --> 00:00:35.759
<v Speaker 3>Something that I think in twenty years I'm going to

12
00:00:35.799 --> 00:00:38.920
<v Speaker 3>look back on this year as something that was really special.

13
00:00:39.200 --> 00:00:40.159
<v Speaker 2>But our job's not done.

14
00:00:40.200 --> 00:00:42.840
<v Speaker 1>We got foma wins and you're gonna have your bullpen

15
00:00:42.920 --> 00:00:45.200
<v Speaker 1>a big part of it. How much do you love

16
00:00:45.240 --> 00:00:47.759
<v Speaker 1>the identity that they've embraced as far as being their

17
00:00:47.840 --> 00:00:49.000
<v Speaker 1>dogs of this.

18
00:00:49.079 --> 00:00:51.240
<v Speaker 2>Team and wonting any part of any game.

19
00:00:51.880 --> 00:00:55.960
<v Speaker 3>I can't say enough about them. And obviously you know

20
00:00:56.280 --> 00:01:00.359
<v Speaker 3>chin In and what guys have done for Bencusper is

21
00:01:00.399 --> 00:01:02.759
<v Speaker 3>not to be on the DS roster and do what

22
00:01:02.799 --> 00:01:04.719
<v Speaker 3>he's done is incredible.

23
00:01:05.879 --> 00:01:07.159
<v Speaker 2>Brent Honeywell, what.

24
00:01:07.120 --> 00:01:10.760
<v Speaker 3>He did in Game five that put us in position

25
00:01:10.879 --> 00:01:15.000
<v Speaker 3>to do this tonight is an unsung part of the

26
00:01:15.079 --> 00:01:18.680
<v Speaker 3>success that we had, and just the contributions up and

27
00:01:18.760 --> 00:01:20.799
<v Speaker 3>down that group was really special.

28
00:01:21.159 --> 00:01:24.120
<v Speaker 1>You've obviously put this team together and start to finish,

29
00:01:24.239 --> 00:01:29.239
<v Speaker 1>but the treat deadline acquisitions you made with Michael Solpak and.

30
00:01:29.319 --> 00:01:31.920
<v Speaker 2>Tony Edmonds and Jack Claart.

31
00:01:31.519 --> 00:01:35.760
<v Speaker 1>Is Tony winning the NLCSNFP coopek and your opener.

32
00:01:36.560 --> 00:01:38.680
<v Speaker 2>How big has those three guys been? Free you guys,

33
00:01:38.680 --> 00:01:41.120
<v Speaker 2>they're just posting them. They've been huge.

34
00:01:41.280 --> 00:01:43.760
<v Speaker 3>And you know, for us, we talked about this every

35
00:01:43.760 --> 00:01:46.640
<v Speaker 3>off season. Our goal is to be good enough and

36
00:01:46.719 --> 00:01:49.840
<v Speaker 3>have enough depth that we get to July and don't.

37
00:01:49.640 --> 00:01:53.319
<v Speaker 2>Need to make trade. It's a bad market to acquire players.

38
00:01:53.640 --> 00:01:56.480
<v Speaker 2>But obviously we got there this July and knew we

39
00:01:56.560 --> 00:01:57.560
<v Speaker 2>had some holes.

40
00:01:57.280 --> 00:02:00.480
<v Speaker 3>We needed to fill, and so Brussel line up on

41
00:02:00.599 --> 00:02:01.079
<v Speaker 3>cop back.

42
00:02:01.159 --> 00:02:04.120
<v Speaker 2>Yet this clarity here mark just the guys that we.

43
00:02:04.159 --> 00:02:07.280
<v Speaker 3>Brought in and the way they fit in within the

44
00:02:07.319 --> 00:02:11.000
<v Speaker 3>culture of this team not only speaks as the talent

45
00:02:11.199 --> 00:02:13.039
<v Speaker 3>and their makeup, but.

46
00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:14.840
<v Speaker 2>Also our veteran players for them.

47
00:02:14.639 --> 00:02:17.240
<v Speaker 3>To embrace these guys coming in in the middle of

48
00:02:17.319 --> 00:02:20.759
<v Speaker 3>the year, for our veteran players to create the environment

49
00:02:21.080 --> 00:02:23.240
<v Speaker 3>where our young players can come up and have the

50
00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:27.039
<v Speaker 3>success that they did because they felt confident, they felt comfortable.

51
00:02:28.240 --> 00:02:30.960
<v Speaker 2>Is a huge part of why we're standing. I know

52
00:02:31.080 --> 00:02:32.560
<v Speaker 2>you like to stay in the background.

53
00:02:32.599 --> 00:02:34.960
<v Speaker 1>It's like you put together a lot of these game plans,

54
00:02:35.000 --> 00:02:36.560
<v Speaker 1>You're involved in every single one.

55
00:02:37.159 --> 00:02:39.280
<v Speaker 2>For you to see them to come to fruition.

56
00:02:38.960 --> 00:02:43.039
<v Speaker 1>As many times as they have this postseason, how gratifying

57
00:02:43.159 --> 00:02:43.680
<v Speaker 1>is that for you?

58
00:02:44.800 --> 00:02:47.840
<v Speaker 3>I mean for me watching some of the best players

59
00:02:47.840 --> 00:02:51.719
<v Speaker 3>in the world run compete and this team has shown

60
00:02:51.879 --> 00:02:57.039
<v Speaker 3>so much resilience and they don't care what's coronasm, what happened.

61
00:02:57.479 --> 00:02:59.199
<v Speaker 3>I mean that's being gets hurt at the end of

62
00:02:59.199 --> 00:03:02.360
<v Speaker 3>the d DS and someone else stepped up. And so

63
00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:05.159
<v Speaker 3>I think it is just the homemark of this bunch

64
00:03:05.520 --> 00:03:08.520
<v Speaker 3>as the way this collection is allen game together, so.

65
00:03:08.520 --> 00:03:10.439
<v Speaker 2>They're good with whatever gets drawn up.

66
00:03:11.000 --> 00:03:14.120
<v Speaker 1>I've heard some buzz around the clubhouse at the Zuka

67
00:03:14.240 --> 00:03:16.840
<v Speaker 1>and Bessia may have a chance to be part of

68
00:03:16.840 --> 00:03:17.960
<v Speaker 1>the World Series roster.

69
00:03:18.639 --> 00:03:20.400
<v Speaker 2>Is that realistic? I think?

70
00:03:20.479 --> 00:03:23.599
<v Speaker 3>So right now, we're gonna celebrate tonight and then tomorrow

71
00:03:23.639 --> 00:03:26.840
<v Speaker 3>we're gonna shift our focus to winning four games. I

72
00:03:26.879 --> 00:03:29.599
<v Speaker 3>expect the roster to be challenging and difficult, but in

73
00:03:29.639 --> 00:03:30.639
<v Speaker 3>a good way.

74
00:03:30.680 --> 00:03:32.439
<v Speaker 2>And as we get ready for Game one of the

75
00:03:32.439 --> 00:03:33.719
<v Speaker 2>World Series.

76
00:03:33.400 --> 00:03:36.840
<v Speaker 1>Dodgers Yanks, Andrew, I know you grew up a baseball fan.

77
00:03:37.360 --> 00:03:39.159
<v Speaker 2>To be part of this for the first time in

78
00:03:39.240 --> 00:03:42.680
<v Speaker 2>forty three years, how special is that? Yeah? I mean

79
00:03:42.800 --> 00:03:44.520
<v Speaker 2>watching the Yankees win the.

80
00:03:44.479 --> 00:03:47.919
<v Speaker 3>Pennant last night, my head started going there. And just

81
00:03:47.960 --> 00:03:51.639
<v Speaker 3>a nostalgia around it and just the classic nature of

82
00:03:51.680 --> 00:03:54.319
<v Speaker 3>it is something I think is really special for the

83
00:03:54.360 --> 00:03:56.080
<v Speaker 3>game and I'm excited to be a part.

84
00:03:56.360 --> 00:03:56.520
<v Speaker 2>Well.

85
00:03:56.560 --> 00:03:58.840
<v Speaker 1>I appreciate you taking time out of the dance party.

86
00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:00.680
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure you and Kik we got more to do.

87
00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:03.080
<v Speaker 2>We do we do? How low can you go?

88
00:04:03.840 --> 00:04:06.800
<v Speaker 1>Thanks a lot, Andrew, congratulations, thank you great
