Dodgers' Dave Roberts Offers Insight Into Joe Kelly's Unusual Mindset on the Mound
Briefly

'Joe has that ability like some people do, to kind of be outside of things, and hear things, see things, have conversations, throw behind hitters' heads, and then still lock back in to the job at hand. There was one moment where Joe ... comes in the game and goes, 'Hey Doc, I'm going to throw the first one to the backstop but don't worry this is intentional. I give him the ball. Go back to the dugout. The first one goes to the backstop. I'm like 'oh boy, here we go.' But he called his shot.'
The veteran reliever signed a one-year, $8 million contract with the Dodgers in the offseason and Dodgers fans are looking forward to more moments - and maybe more intentional wild pitches - from him in 2024.
