"I didn't have him in there tonight, and he really wanted to be in there tonight on his bobblehead night and said he felt good. And so it proved to be the right decision."
"When you talk about big heads, clutch, Will is right at the top of this as well. He took some good pitches with two strikes down below, and then he got into fight mode."
"You can see him spoiling some good heaters and just trying to fend off, potentially, that split-change, or whatever that (Juan) Marillo throws, and got a fastball that he could handle and put a really good swing on it."
"I need to start tracking the Dodgers' bobblehead giveaways."
Dave Roberts initially did not plan to start Will Smith on his bobblehead night, but after Smith expressed his desire to play, he was included in the lineup. Smith hit a crucial home run in the eighth inning, contributing to the Dodgers' 3-2 victory over the Diamondbacks. Roberts acknowledged the importance of Smith's performance and reflected on the previous season's oversight regarding Smith's bobblehead night, humorously noting the need to track such events in the future.
