Kyle Tucker discussed his contribution to the Dodgers' win over the Nationals at a September 4, 2026, press conference.
Tucker said he was "just able to contribute right there and put a good swing on the ball and have it go out." He noted that the pitch was "a ball like 99 up and in," presenting the description as his assessment. Tucker plays for the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Tucker stated that "our pitching staff, like I said, has done a phenomenal job for us," saying the staff has supported the Dodgers during offensive struggles. He also said he treats every game the same and tries to win each one, quoting his approach as: "treat every game the same and just try and go out there and win the game."
Tucker said the Dodgers had "like 20 30 games left of the season," according to his estimate, and explained that the team plans to "build some momentum just overall as a team and just try and carry that into the playoffs." He added, "the whole goal for us is to win another World Series." That goal was also identified as the team's objective in his remarks.
Tucker mentioned Mickey as someone prepared to play every day and ready for opportunities whenever he enters a game: "he's prepared to play every single day and you know whenever he goes in he's ready for his opportunities." Tucker said Mickey supports him and the Dodgers' teammates, describing him as "very supportive of everyone in here." The Dodgers will seek to build momentum through their remaining regular-season games and carry it into the playoffs.
