Dodgers reporter Kirsten Watson joins Anthony Barr and Eric Kendricks on Bent Outta Shape to take us behind the scenes of life covering one of the biggest teams in baseball. With the Dodgers chasing a historic three-peat, Kirsten breaks down the challenges of postseason baseball, what changes inside the clubhouse during a playoff run, and what it’s like traveling with and covering the team throughout a grueling MLB season. She also answers the questions everyone wants to know about Shohei Ohtani, including what he’s really like behind the scenes, whether he speaks English, and what makes covering one of the greatest players baseball has ever seen so unique. Kirsten also opens up about building relationships with players like Freddie Freeman and Mookie Betts, navigating difficult postgame interviews, MLB superstitions, and how trust with players changes the conversations she’s able to have. Plus, Kirsten shares her journey from college athlete to Dodgers reporter, her favorite and least favorite MLB stadiums, why Marshawn Lynch is one of her favorite interviews ever, and plenty of hilarious stories from life around professional sports.
