Be it the most talked about game against the Washington Nationals or the controversial torpedo bets, the Los Angeles Dodgers’ players have found themselves in the middle of debate, discussion, and questions. Their ability to play a solid game, however, is never a question. Kike Hernandez talks about how the team is determined to fight back.

Kike Hernandez says the Dodgers will bounce back

The Los Angeles Dodgers already have won 10 games and lost 4. Early in the season, there are expectations from fans to be the best, hence, even a small error could become a big deal. Recently, Kike Hernandez opened up about his group, where he explains how with seasoned people, the team has been able to work on eacb player’s potential.
“It comes with the character of the group, You have a lot of very seasoned people in this locker room. It’s realizing we have another 148 to go.”
Further, Hernandez says:
“And you know when you’re expected to win 162 games in a season, and you lose four in a week, then it could feel like the world is ending. But at the end of the day, we have 148 more. At some point, we were going to play (lousy) baseball, and it seemed like this was the week we did that.”
He adds:

“We have a lot of things to clean up, We’ve been having a lot of quick innings. I didn’t think we’ve really ran any starting pitchers out of the game early, which is something we pride ourselves in as a unit. We’ve gotten to some early, but we let them settle down and cruise through the rest of the game.“

Speculations arise over Freddie Freeman’s return post injury

Now, in the middle of a heated baseball season, fans are too excited after they found out that Los Angeles Dodgers’ game against the Chicago Cubs, might feature Dodgers’ ace Freddie Freeman, who had been absent due to injury.
There are several speculations suggesting that Freeman could possibly return just in time for a special evening. Especially, through a bobblehead giveaway.
First baseman, Freddie Freeman, missed out key games due to his right ankle sprain, when he slipped in the shower at home after the opening series against the Detroit Tigers.
