Dodgers Postgame: Mookie Betts discusses his big three-run home run, reception for Shohei Ohtani

obviously with the think September talks about just how important each win is but with the battle like tonight just kind of what are your takeaways of this win um I mean you just got to play 27 outs um pitchers did a great job keeping them off the board um you know we didn't hit great but again it's a team effort be able to play good defense and Pitch until uh to we able to get some hits the kind of game you got have to play this year where you're maybe struggling at the plate early on just kind of stick with it and then come through in the 10th I mean there's no really other option you know we have keep playing and until the game's over you know and we're we're going to keep fighting was it important keep the momentum going after a positive Series yeah absolutely It's always important to keep momentum going sometimes momentum is not going to be your way and you have to find ways to create it um but anytime you're in a wave you just keep riding what was your reaction in mindset when they walked Shi before you went and hit the Home Run uh uh I was just uh just telling myself to get a good pitch to hit right here um you know Shi being doing what Shi uh always does I understand um their perspective so I was just trying to get a good fish to hit you remember the last time that someone um no cuz I'm usually lead off so um I mean maybe when a pitcher hit but it's uh it's been a while 2016 Big Poppy we looked it up is that was that the last time mhm oh wow it's only this is the third time it's ever happened well I'm glad um I'm just glad we won what what was your reaction to just seeing the welcome back for sh Otani oh it was cool it was cool I mean um you know he done a lot here and did a lot well did a lot here and um it was cool to see it good for him and uh you know I'm glad he was able to to uh to play well in front of uh his old home crowd thank you
