Kiké Hernández almost missed a game of the National League Championship Series.
During a live interview with FOX’s Ken Rosenthal, Hernández used profane language while on the air on national television. The interview followed the Dodgers’ series-winning victory in Game 5 of the National League Division Series against the San Diego Padres.
Rosenthal asked Hernández what makes this Dodgers team different from other ones. In response, Hernández said, “The fact that we don’t give a f—.” Hernández found himself in some trouble after his comment, including a potential game suspension and a fine.
“I was going to get an even heftier fine, and I was going to get a game suspension, but having a good agent and having a good player union came in handy,” Hernández said in an interview with The Shop on YouTube.
