We must protect Mookie’s mom at all costs.

That is true but why you said that?

I love how David Roberts introduce him to all the guys right away and the support he gives his guys is absolutely amazing 🤩

[@aoi75z]

Makes me sad when people shit on Dave Roberts when they lose, but when they do good he gets no credit. The team is leading the MLB right now and have been dominating (Although struggling in Postseason to win the crown other than 2020) for the past decade. But there is no respect.

[@JimCarryz]

It’s really a testament to the organization how incredibly comfortable every single person getting called up into the clubhouse feels. All the coaches know their name, the rest of the boys are receptive, and Doc immediately brings the energy and excitement that comes with getting called up to the show. Just awesome to see and one of the many reasons we’ve had such prolonged success

[@duncedude7205]

How does this effect Lebron legacy?

[@escodream]

Watching this live on TV was amazing. Outman got on base a couple times in his first game and him hitting a HR at his first at bat was insane.

[@kimchi2780]

Outman is killing it this year.

[@keithmiller2714]

These are my favorite stories! Thanks for sharing LAD! Dave Roberts, every time the essence of leadership!!

[@nathanielnathaniel3548]

Cairn wait to see how far Outman goes in this organization, such an awesome and talented guy

[@imgrizz.]

Instant chills. Joe Davis commentated that so perfectly 🙏🏼

[@emmalu1984]

Joe Davis to Outman: Welcome to the bigs! Welcome to your dream.... Me at home: 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@jag136]

Outman is such a great kid. Wish him much success but we are so rich with outfielders.

[@ShortKing678]

Bro I know outman

[@GarrettDanger_]

Great episode. Not ready for the next one though

[@ayydubs987]

We really lucky to have Mookie man…what a player and a person/role model to kids

[@GO-im8ip]

Congratulations James! Great story!

[@UseAbuseReuse]

21:37 you guys put the wrong team in the final score.

[@dalialopez06]

I’ve been waiting for this

[@Yvettes3.14]

BTW thank you to the backstage dodgers producers for keeping it focus on the player and his parents.... I still have nightmares from the other video featuring the obnoxious DRUNK fiancee more than the player or his parents.

[@ob0074]

which video lol i want to watch

[@enriquezuniga7338]

Dodgers have the best farm system period! We always have good players moving up and all of them are ready to play once called up. This is why we continue to be MLB contenders for almost 10 years .

[@tdot3424]

But they always make up excuses to hate us just cuz they ain’t us

[@elishevajones6730]

Hope the Dodgers bring up Outman for the coming season. Let's go Dodgers 💙.

[@Jay-kj2xm]

Anyone know where James Outman has even been? He has been missing from the minor league team for two weeks but marked as active and not injured. Is he okay?

[@Jay-kj2xm]

@@gabbyhyman1246 That was Zach McKinstry

[@ORArmpits]

He got optioned back to Oklahoma City on August 5th.

[@kellenthemelon226]

I think roberts just doesn't want to play him now but doesn't want him back in the minors just to have to send him back up or lose him to a different team. I am sure he will pinch hit soon or start against the Marlins

[@Jay-kj2xm]

@@ORArmpits That’s exactly what I said. He has not been playing at all

[@Jay-kj2xm]

@@kellenthemelon226 He isn’t on the major league roster so that is not possible

[@JustinKim-2000]

Next prospect to be called up is Michael Busch and Bobby Miller

[@Julx13]

Can’t Wait for the next episode

[@zachleary108]

It was great seeing Outman come up and get such a warm welcome. But isn't there a lingering question? Where did he go? Wasn't it like 4 games or something? Why bring him up at all if you knew you were just gonna send him down? He hit well too. Some strike outs at the end, but all in all it was great.

[@bluex610]

Baseball is Mookies hobby. His real passion is clearly bowling 😆

[@Adam-iq8rv]

Far out, man!

[@colejesperson8431]

@ 21:38 Dodgers v Padres huh

[@bigbluenationsmith2489]

I believe James is going to be the next Beli. Or Gavin Lux. He’s proven that he’s got power.

[@dashpratt4097]

How do you compare him to Lux and Bellinger. Completely different players. Apples and oranges my guy!

[@bigbluenationsmith2489]

The younger Lux or Beli. Before those two guys became who they are today.

[@crazyherrerakids1234]

[@maxsmart8954]

Friedman wants to roll the Gallo dice.

[@jimharper2180]

As I type this comment, Joey Gallo's OPS with the Dodgers is .948. If we exclude the homerun he hit off of a position player, his OPS is .790.

[@maxsmart8954]

As I look at Joey today 9/16 Joey is at .173 5 HRS SO’s 50% of the time. OPS 704. Time to cut losses and let Outman play.

[@Wpopof6]

Outman should still be in the bigs I think he is alot better than Gallo. I think it is wrong when someone is playing like outman did and you send him down and then pick up a player who hasnt been doing much for the other teams he is playing for and the Dodgers play him, Give the youngster a shot. I think they will try to trade him and some other players in the off season for Ohtani

[@gordonames1892]

THERE IS STILL SOME HIT AND MISS TO HIS GAME. GET IT RIGHT, HE'LL BE GREAT!!!

[@psypsyred16]

His wife,so pretty

[@thinkblue8089]

He was hot, why did they send him back?

[@nokbbang_Han]

good bye martin
