LOS ANGELES —- Manager Dave Roberts may have the understatement of the night when he was asked about his reaction to Yasmani Grandal’s grand slam that completed their comeback in the seventh inning.
“I think I kept my emotions in check,” said Roberts, “you know it is just one of those things, as a coach, manager, you’re in their every at bat for these guys.”
“You know the struggles Yasmani’s had, you know he’s had a great night,” said Roberts, “but right-handed not so much. And I know he’s up there competing to get to a good count, and to a get a pitch and drive it, I was pulling hard for him and all those guys, in those collective at-bats, so to kind of see that inning through with that exclamation mark, I was a little emotional.
