Pedro Martinez Reacts to Dodgers vs Brewers Game 2 HIGHLIGHTS | MLB on TBS

ON TNT AND STREAMING ON HBO MAX. GO TO MLB.COM FOR MORE DETAILS. TWO ACES ON THE MOUND FREDDY PERALTA AND YAMAMOTO. WHAT A PERFORMANCE IT WAS FROM HIM. WE START OFF FIRST PITCH OF THE GAME FROM YAMAMOTO. DING DONG JOHNSON. DING DONG JACKSON. CHOURIO. THIS PLACE WAS GOING NUTS. YOU COULDN’T HAVE ASKED FOR A BETTER START THAN THAT. PLAY RIGHT THERE. OH, YOU’RE SAYING DING DONG JACKSON. DING DONG JACKSON CHOURIO TOP SECOND. NOW ONE OUT AND TEOSCAR HERNANDEZ ANSWERS BACK WITH A TOWERING DING DONG. JACKSON HIS FOURTH HOME RUN OF THE POSTSEASON. AND THEN HOW ABOUT THIS ANDY PEREZ CAME INTO TONIGHT ONE HIT IN 27 AT BATS. AND THIS ONE WAS ENORMOUS. JIMMY I’VE SAID IT BEFORE. IT ONLY TAKES ONE SWING. AND CHARLIE SAID THIS ALL THE TIME. JIMMY. IT’S NOT ABOUT HOW MANY YOU GET SONS. HOW MANY YOU GET THAT COUNT. AND THAT WILL COUNT IT RIGHT THERE. THAT PUT THE DODGERS AHEAD. AND THEY DID NOT LOOK BACK. GAVE HIM THE LEAD. WE MOVE NOW. TOP SIX TWO OUTS TWO STRIKES. MATT MUNCY ON A32 COUNT TO CENTER FIELD. WE SAW THIS ONE TURN INTO A DOUBLE PLAY LAST NIGHT. IT WAS ABOUT A FOOT TALLER. AND THAT ALSO MADE MUNCY THE DODGERS ALL TIME POSTSEASON HOME RUN LEADER WITH 14 PASSING JUSTIN AND COREY SEAGER. HE’S GOT TO STAY AWAY FROM CENTER FIELD. ALL THOSE BALLS A LITTLE TOO CLOSE. BUT HEY, ONCE YOU GET IT OVER, IT STILL COUNTS. ASHBY NOW PITCHING SHOHEI OHTANI GETS THAT LONG LOST SINGLE THAT WE’VE BEEN WAITING FOR ANOTHER RUN FOR KIKO HERNANDEZ. IT WAS FOUR ONE DODGERS. AND OF COURSE THE STORY PEDRO YAMAMOTO, HIS SHORTEST IN THE MAJORS AGAINST THE BREWERS THIS YEAR IN JULY. AND NOW HIS FIRST COMPLETE GAME IN THE POSTSEASON AGAINST THE BREWERS. BUT YOU KNOW WHAT WITH THAT KIND OF STUFF THAT YOU SAW THERE, I’M NOT SURPRISED HE WENT FROM THE SHORTEST TO THE LONGEST. CONGRATS TO HIM. AND THAT WAS JUST AN OUTSTANDING OUTING. WOW. IMPRESSIVE. WE HAVE BEEN SO IMPRESSED WITH THE DODGERS PITCHING. IF IT CONTINUES, I’M SORRY TO SAY IT, I HAVE A LOT OF FAITH IN THE BREWERS, BUT I DON’T THINK IT’S GOING TO LAST TOO LONG. THEY CONTINUE TO PITCH THE WAY THEY HAVE. THEY STILL HAVE SHOHEI, THEY STILL HAVE GLASS. NOW LET’S HEAR SOME POST-GAME TALK FROM THIS INCREDIBLE PERFORMANCE FROM YAMAMOTO. IT’S GREAT. YOU KNOW, BOTH THOSE PITCHERS WERE AS DOMINANT AS TWO PITCHERS HAVE BEEN. YOU KNOW, WE CHASED WAY MORE THAN THAN WE’VE CHASED ALL YEAR. WE’VE BEEN THE BEST IN BASEBALL AT NOT CHASING. THESE PITCHERS BROUGHT OUT THE WORST IN US. YEAH. IF I WOULD HAVE TOLD YOU THAT THE DODGERS ARE GOING TO SCORE SEVEN RUNS IN TWO GAMES, AND WHAT WAS THE OUTCOME IN THE FIRST TWO GAMES, I’D SAY THERE’S A CHANCE WE WON ONE OF THEM FOR SURE. YOU KNOW, OUR PITCHING IS BEAT UP, YOU KNOW THAT. I MEAN, IT WAS AN EMOTIONAL SERIES WITH THE CUBS AND THEN OUR PITCHING HAS BEEN. SO WE WEREN’T AS SHARP. BUT I THOUGHT FREDDY PITCHED WELL. AND, YOU KNOW, I THOUGHT ASHBY CAME IN AND DID A GREAT JOB. GASSER CAME IN AND DID A GREAT JOB. ANDERSON CAME IN AND DID A GREAT JOB. SO WE HAD SOME WE HAD SOME GOOD PERFORMANCES, BUT OFFENSIVELY YOU’VE GOT TO GRIND OUT AT BATS AND THAT’S THAT’S WHAT BEEN OUR FORTE. THE BALL STRIKE HAS BEEN REALLY AT THE CORE OF OUR OFFENSIVE SUCCESS, AND SOMETIMES GREAT PITCHING BRINGS OUT THE THE WORST IN YOU. 28 TIMES IN THE POSTSEASON. THE ROAD TEAM HAS WON THE FIRST TWO GAMES IN A BEST OF SEVEN SERIES 25 TIMES. THAT TEAM HAS GONE ON TO WIN. SO JUST UNDER 90%. JIMMY, WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE FOR THE BREWERS BATS TO COME ALIVE, OTHER THAN THEY DON’T HAVE TO FACE SNELL AND YAMAMOTO FOR THE NEXT TWO MATCHUPS? WELL, THEY GOT GLASS NOW IN OHTANI. I DON’T THINK THERE’S ANY HOPE OF THEM COMING ALIVE, BUT THEY CAN FIND A WAY TO ADD PRESSURE HAVING GOOD AT BATS. AS MURPH SAID, THEY’VE CHASED A LOT AND GREAT PITCHING WILL DO THAT FOR YOU BECAUSE YOU’RE TRYING TO GET SOMETHING GOING. SOMEONE’S TRYING TO STEP UP AND GET THAT BIG SWING, WHICH WE SAW EARLY, BUT THEN NOTHING. IT FELL FLAT BECAUSE YAMAMOTO MADE THE ADJUSTMENT. BUT IF YOU CAN KEEP PRESSURE ON THE PITCHER, GET HIM IN A STRETCH, GET RUNNERS IN SCORING POSITION. EVENTUALLY SOMEBODY WILL START TO CROSS THE PLATE. BUT IF YOU’RE NOT EVEN GETTING YOURSELF IN POSITION AND THE ONLY THING YOU’RE DOING IS DRIVING THE BALL OUT THE YARD AGAINST THIS PITCHING STAFF, IT’S GOING TO BE A LONG NIGHT AND IT’S BEEN TOUGH. YOU KNOW, THEY HAD LESS THAN 20 PITCHES FROM THE STRETCH. WE’RE TRYING TO PUT PRESSURE ON. THEY’RE NOT DRAWING THE WALKS. THEY’RE NOT GETTING ALONG AT BATS. HE HAD LESS THAN 100 PITCHES GOING INTO THE NINTH INNING. BUT THAT’S CREDIT TO THE DODGERS PITCHING STAFF. DOC ROBERTS I TALKED TO HIM WHEN I GOT A CHANCE TO COVER THAT SERIES, AND HE MENTIONED WE’RE SET UP AS A TRADITIONAL PLAYOFF TEAM THAN WE’VE EVER BEEN BEFORE. THE YEAR BEFORE, IT WAS ALL THE BULLPEN, ALL BULLPEN. NOW THEY ACTUALLY HAVE STARTERS THAT CAN COME OUT THERE AND BE CALLED UPON. AND THEY’RE DELIVERING TO HAVE TRULY FOUR STARTERS READY TO ROLL. THEY’RE UNLIKE ANY OTHER TEAM IN THE POSTSEASON, AND THEY’RE RELYING ON THEM AND THEY’RE ALL COMING UP BIG. EVERYONE’S WAITING TO ANNOUNCE THEIR STARTING PITCHING AN HOUR BEFORE THE GAME. MEANWHILE, ROBERTS IS LIKE, HERE’S WHO WE GOT FOR THE WEEK, SO DON’T ASK ME ANYMORE. BUT I DON’T KNOW. THIS HAS BEEN YOUR BREW CREW ALL YEAR AND THEY’VE BEEN A PHENOMENAL WATCH. THESE FANS HAVE BEEN GREAT, BUT IT’S LOOKING LIKE TOO TALL OF A OF A MOUNTAIN TO CLIMB NOW. WELL, AT THIS POINT, YES, I’M HOPING THAT THEY GET AN OPPORTUNITY TO FIND ONE OF THOSE STARTERS, MAYBE ON A LITTLE BIT WEAKER DAY THAN THEY HAD THE LAST TWO DAYS. AND PLUS, YOU HAVE TO CREDIT THE DODGERS WITH PLAYING GREAT DEFENSIVE GAMES. THEY HAVE COME CLUTCH WHEN THEY NEED TO. THEY HAVE HIT ENOUGH HOMERS TO ACTUALLY MAKE IT PAST THE MILWAUKEE BREWERS. THE MILWAUKEE BREWERS, I THINK, DID NOT EXECUTE AS MUCH AS THEY WANTED TO. BUT WITH THAT KIND OF PITCHING, I MEAN, ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS JUST SAY, LIKE I ONCE SAID, TIP YOUR HAT AND LET THEM GO, BECAUSE I’M NOT GOING TO SAY OTHER THINGS, BUT TIP YOUR HAT AND LET THEM GO BECAUSE THE DODGERS ARE PLAYING ALMOST PERFECT, PERFECT BASEBALL. AND THAT’S VERY UNUSUAL AT THIS TIME OF YEAR. ANOTHER THING THAT HAPPENS, ANOTHER THING THAT HAPPENS IS AND PEDRO KNOWS THIS, AND I’VE SEEN IT WHEN OUR PITCHERS GOT ON THE ROAD, YOU SEE THAT GUY THROUGH THE NIGHT BEFORE? OH, I HAVE TO MATCH THAT. IT’S A COMPETITION. THEY WANT TO LOOK AT EACH OTHER LIKE, YEAH, YOU DID IT. I DID IT TOO. AND IT GOES ON AND ON AND ON. AND RIGHT NOW THESE GUYS ARE AT THE TOP OF THEIR GAME. IT’S NOT LIKE, WELL, I’VE BEEN STRUGGLING. I’M HOPING COMING BACK THAT UP, IT’S LIKE, NO, AS GOOD AS YOU WERE, I WANT TO GO OUT THERE AND BE AS JUST AS DOMINANT. AND THEY’VE DONE THAT IN BACK TO BACK NIGHTS. SPEAKING OF BEING AS GOOD AS YOU WERE, COULD IT BE? AND I’LL BRING IT TO BOTH OF Y’ALL. THE DODGERS LOST SIX GAMES OUT OF THE SIX THEY PLAYED TO THE BREWERS. YAMAMOTO GOT BEAT UP BAD HERE. ARE THEY LOOKING AT IT GOING ALL RIGHT, Y’ALL GOT ME. THEN I’M GOING TO TRY TO COME BACK AND GET YOU NOW. WELL I’M GOING TO I’M GOING TO ANSWER FIRST. YOU HEARD THE INTERVIEW FOR BLAKE SNELL. HE SAYS HEY THEY’RE NOT REGULAR JOES TO US. I’M NOT BELIEVING THAT THEY BEAT US IN THE IN THE SIX REGULAR SEASON GAMES. SO THEY WERE WELL AWARE THAT THAT THEY HAD THEIR NUMBER DURING THE REGULAR SEASON. BUT ONCE AGAIN, YOU TAKE, YOU KNOW, THE REGULAR SEASON AND THROW IT OUT THE BACK AND YOU START BRAND NEW GAMES IN THE POSTSEASON. SO THIS IS WHAT THE DODGERS CAME TO DO. THEY’RE NOT TAKING THEM FOR GRANTED OR ANY LIGHTLY. THEY’RE THEY’RE COMING AFTER THEM AND GOING WITH THAT. SOMETIMES YOU TAKE A TEAM TOO LIGHTLY. LIKE YOU KNOW WHERE THE DODGERS HAD THE BREWERS. YOU COME TO A CITY WHICH YOU CALL THOSE SLEEPER CITIES. YOU COME OUT HERE AND GET YOUR BUTT HANDED TO YOU. YOU GO BACK NEXT TIME. SERIOUS. AND THEY CAME OUT. THEY CAME OUT SERIOUS. THIS SERIES. NOW WE DID SEE THIS 2015 CUBS METS CUBS SWEPT THE SEASON SERIES IN THE REGULAR SEASON. METS SWEPT THEM IN THE NLCS. AND YOU MIGHT SAY, HEY, AT LEAST IT’S NO SNELL AND YAMAMOTO. WE DID SEE GLASS. NOW. GAME FOUR AGAINST THE PHILLIES. SIX SCORELESS, TWO HITS. THEY JUST KEEP COMING. AND WE’RE NOT EVEN TALKING ABOUT SHOHEI OHTANI, BUT WHO I MEAN, WHO IS PEDRO’S PAPA TONIGHT? IT COULD BE TEOSCAR WE DON’T EVEN HAVE. WHILE DAVE ROBERTS IS A WILD CARD HERE AT THE END. THERE WE GO. I MEAN, YOSHINOBU IS THE FAVORITE. I COULD TAKE ALL FOUR OF THEM. YEAH. WHAT DO YOU THINK AMERICA WANTS, YAMAMOTO? I THINK YOUR MOMMY ONLY WANTS ONE DADDY TONIGHT. PEDRO. TAKE IT EASY, MAMA. HERNANDEZ. WE’LL FIND OUT. PEDRO’S DADDY AS WE WRAP UP THE
