Despite their dismal postseason loss, Kiké Hernández will be part of an alternate broadcast on truTV, so the Los Angeles Dodgers will have a representative during the National League Championship Series.

All 2023 NLCS games between the Arizona Diamondbacks and the Philadelphia Phillies will only air on TBS; additional streams will be available on their app and Max through the Bleacher Report sports add-on. In addition to Ron Darling, Jeff Francoeur, and Matt Winer in the booth, play-by-play man Brian Anderson is also the reporter.

Hernández will be joined by former Dodgers reporter Alanna Rizzo to anchor the NLCS alternate broadcast on truTV, which is dubbed “Postseason ALTcast: Peloteros.” For Game 1, a panel consisting of Pedro Martínez, Albert Pujols, Yonder Alonso, and Néstor Cortés will also be present.

For Game 2, the same group will be a part of the ALTcast on truTV, and for Game 3, Hernández will be replaced on the panel by Iván Rodríguez.

At a later time, information on the remaining guest panels as the NLCS advances will be released.

From 2014 through 2020, Rizzo was a member of the SportsNet LA broadcast crew. After that, she started working as a co-host on MLB Network’s “High Heat” show with Chris “Mad Dog” Russo.

She returned to Dodger Stadium in 2021 for an MLB Network broadcast, and in 2020 she was awarded a 2020 Dodgers World Series ring.

She said at the time to DodgerBlue.com, “I’m definitely looking forward to going back home and doing that again.” “I am so excited about that.”

On January 6, 2024, Rizzo will return to Dodger Stadium to teach a scorekeeping course in support of her Guidry Guardian initiative. She had her first gathering in February 2020.

Kiké Hernández accepts the strain of the postseasonHernández mentioned that he was excited about the prospect of playing in October again when the Boston Red Sox traded him to the Dodgers this season.

Before making his Dodgers debut in 2023, Hernández stated, “I gradually started playing less and less in Boston, and I prepared myself to potentially be traded.” “Obviously didn’t know where, but as an experienced player with a contract expiring, that’s what happens. Crazy world, when I found out I was coming back here.

Numerous feelings. I am here, like I mentioned, and I am excited to play baseball in October. My family is the one thing I love more than playing in October, as those who know me well would attest.

Following his bench appearances in Games 1 and 2 of the NL Division Series, Hernández started the game, which ultimately resulted in a loss that eliminated the Dodgers from the post. In Game 3, Hernández was 2-for-4 with one RBI.

In response to a question concerning his postseason success during his career, Hernández said, “I’m no brain doctor, mental performance coach, or anything.”

To put it simply, I enjoy being present in the moment. I wish to witness the momentous occasion. It’s the big at-bat I desire. It seems like my entire life has been spent getting ready for moments like these. I never simply dreamed of being a big league player; instead, I always saw myself as a young child participating in major World Series games.
