LOS ANGELES -- In a competition with nine candidates, it took a lot for anyone to stand out in the race to be the next Dodgers manager. But in his first interview, Dave Roberts did just that, setting himself apart from the rest of the pack.
"After our first-round interview, it was like he had our answer key. He had all the answers we wanted to hear going through it," said Dodgers president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman. "It was incredibly impressive."
"We went into it with a completely open mind," general manager Farhan Zaidi said.
