Dave Roberts has won two National League pennants and five NL West titles as manager of the Dodgers, and I … I have not.
However, we do have something in common: We don’t like in-game player interviews.
To be clear, Roberts was interviewed between innings during games on the Dodgers’ SportsNet LA all season. So he doesn’t seem to mind managers being interviewed. But Roberts is no fan of players being interviewed during games, fearing they’ll be distracted.
Dodgers third baseman Justin Turner agreed to be interviewed in the field for an inning during a wild-card series game last week.
