Dodgers Dugout: Jaime Jarrín discusses Vin Scully, Fernando Valenzuela and Muhammad Ali
Hi, and welcome to another edition of Dodgers Dugout. My name is Houston Mitchell. Doesn't it feel like Chris Taylor and Austin Barnes were released last season? No, that was this season. We received many questions for Jaime Jarrín, who was kind enough to take time out of his day to answer some of those questions. Deputy sports editor Ed Guzman conducted the interview by phone. Because Jarrín was the longtime Spanish-language broadcaster for the Dodgers, it seemed appropriate for a couple of the questions and answers to be in Spanish. In the case of multiple people asking the same questions, the person who asked the question first gets credit for the question. Questions without a name were asked by Guzman. From Virgilio Del Rio: How did you prepare to become a sports broadcaster? Jarrín: Well, before becoming a sports broadcaster, I was a newsman. I used to write news, I edited news, that was my experience. Sportscasting, I learned that when I came to this country. But back home, for four years, I was a newsman writing news, editorials and things like that. (Follow-up question from Guzman): Once you were a broadcaster here in the States, did you ever want to broadcast games in English or were you always just focused on doing it in Spanish? Jarrín: I always wanted to do it only in Spanish. I never really wanted to go into English-language because I thought that it was my duty to do this in Spanish. So I'm very proud to have done it all in Spanish. From Jerry Smith of Los Angeles: You called the 'Thrilla in Manila' between Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier. What was that like? Jarrín: It is my greatest experience doing sports because the atmosphere in Manila was unbelievable. I was there for I think it was two days before the fight and it was like a carnival there. Muhammad Ali was walking the streets around the arena, you know, promoting the fight and signing many things. And he was a great, great promoter. So it was unbelievable. And the day of the fight, it was so hot, so rainy, and the fight was held at 10 o'clock in the morning (to accommodate the international viewing audience). It was really a great, great experience. From Alex Andrade of Paramount: How difficult or easy is it to switch from calling boxing versus calling a baseball game? Jarrín: Well, it's totally different. In boxing, I was the blow-by-blow announcer. So I didn't have time to do commentary. Besides, I had a commentator with me, Mr. Cuco Conde, who was a very famous boxing promoter in Cuba. So in my case, I just narrate the fight. In boxing, you have to follow the action through the blows that are thrown by the fighters. In baseball, you have time to describe what's going on, you have time for anecdotes, important dates and things like that. From Mark Layne: Do you have a favorite story about Vin Scully? Jarrín: I was very fortunate. It was a privilege to spend so much time with him because on the road we were always together, having lunch together, then dinner at the ballpark. Same thing here in Los Angeles. We always had dinner together before the games. And to see how nice he was with everybody; he never refused to shake hands with anybody; he never refused to take a picture with anybody. He was very, very special. As a baseball announcer, as a sports announcer, he was the best of the best of all time. But as a human being, he was exceptionally beautiful. Something very special I have to mention is the fact that when my wife passed away six years ago, he was the first one to call me and he talked to me for about 20 minutes. It was the most beautiful call I ever received. The way that he talked about my wife, about our friendship, the way that he handled the language, his intonation, his delivery on the phone. It was really, really something very, very unique that I will never, never forget. Very touching. Very touching. From Paul Aist of Ventura: In your opinion, did Tommy Lasorda shorten Fernando Valenzuela's career by overusing him? Jarrín: In a way, probably, but it was because Fernando wanted to stay in the games. He used to tell me, 'Jaime, when I start something, I like to finish that. And when I start a game, I want to finish that.' So I'm sure that Lasorda wanted to take him out earlier in many games, but he insisted on staying on. The Baseball Hall of Fame induction ceremony is later this month for the newest class. What do you remember about your induction into the Hall of Fame in 1998? Jarrín: I remember very well the phone call that I received from the head of the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown. Around 8 o'clock in the morning, I got a telephone call. They told me, 'Please, Jaime, be around a telephone because probably you are going to be inducted into the Hall of Fame.' And the telephone rang at around 9:30 in the morning. And it was the head of Cooperstown. And he said, 'Jaime, it's my pleasure to let you know that you have been selected to be inducted into the Hall of Fame this year along with Don Sutton and Larry Doby.' You can imagine how excited I was. My wife, Blanca, was standing there next to me near the phone. And she saw my face, my reaction, and she started crying. And that was really something very, very special, something that is in my heart for the rest of my life. It was very emotional. It was very, very incredible. And then the ceremony in Cooperstown is something very unique, very special. I would say that before the ceremony, they put you with all the Hall of Famers in a room. And there were about, I would say, 25, 28-30 Hall of Famers. And to be there among them, it was, to me, like being in heaven. I couldn't believe that I would be there next to Henry Aaron, next to Willie Mays and Sandy Koufax and Tom Seaver and all those Hall of Famers. It was something special, and that changed my life. Because before that, I was one of the many, many announcers doing baseball. But after the Hall of Fame, owners of the different ballclubs, GMs and people like that, they would look for me to take a picture, to shake my hand, to introduce themselves. So really, it was a turning point. Fantastic. How much do you watch this year's team? Well, I follow every single game on TV. When I go to the ballpark, I go to the field, I go to the clubhouse, I say hello to the ballplayers. Then I go to the press box because I like to see the writers because they were so nice with me, English or Spanish. They wrote beautiful things about me, about my career. I like to see the employees at the press box. Then I stay for three, four or five innings and come home. So it's perfect. The perfect combination. But I follow the team through TV when I am not at the ballpark, yes. ¿Qué opina usted sobre el pitcheo del equipo de esta temporada? El pitcheo deja mucho que desear debido a las lesiones. Los Dodgers durante el invierno fueron en busca de verdaderos ases del montículo y lograron contratar a varios de ellos. Pero dos de ellos han estado lesionados todo el tiempo y eso ha desbalanceado completamente el desempeño del equipo de lanzadores. Debido a las lesiones, también hemos tenido prácticamente cada juego en que los abridores únicamente lanzan tres o cuatro innings, máximo. Y eso ha minado mucho la fortaleza del bullpen. Y el bullpen se ha visto dismal en verdad, en lo que a potencia se debe debido al uso cotidiano prácticamente de todos los días. Espero que en este descanso los Dodgers logren consolidar el excelente elenco de lanzadores que necesitan para poder llegar y ganar la Serie Mundial. Hemos escuchado el cuadrangular de Kirk Gibson en la Serie Mundial en la transmisión de Vin Scully, y también en el relato de Jack Buck. Pero uno no puede encontrar el relato de ese jonrón de usted o de René Cárdenas. ¿Por qué no hay modo de escuchar ese relato? La simple respuesta: porque en aquel entonces, lamentablemente, la estación de radio y los mismos Dodgers no se preocuparon en guardar las transmisiones. No tenemos ninguna, ninguna grabación de ninguno de los juegos de los Dodgers hasta hace pocos años. Es un misterio, en verdad. KWKW y KTNQ, las dos emisoras que estuvieron con los Dodgers en esos años, no se preocuparon en mantener grabaciones de eso. Y por eso es que no existe absolutamente nada en lo que respecta a nuestras transmisiones. Es una lástima, en verdad, pero es la realidad. From Bruce Campbell of Los Angeles: Your wife, Blanca, died in 2019. What would you want people to know about her? Well, you know, it was such a heavy blow to myself and my family, my two sons, Jorge and Mauricio. What can I tell you? She was such a beautiful person. She was so supportive of me. All the accolades that I have gained is thanks to her because she was behind me all the time. She never complained about my being absent because I used to travel with the Dodgers and sometimes, road trips took 16 days, 19 days. And she was so generous with people and everything. The Jaime and Blanca Jarrin Foundation has expressed a desire to uplift underserved students by awarding scholarships to those pursuing careers specifically in law and journalism. Why those two areas? Jaime: Jorge can answer that because he is on top of everything. He can express very well the goals of the foundation. I was very pleased when Jorge and Mauricio, along with my three grandsons, joined forces to create a foundation in order to preserve the image and the name of my wife, Blanca, who was a very generous person. So I was delighted when they told me about the project. And now, I just try to help my family as much as possible. Jorge and the rest of the family work very hard in trying to create the funds that we need for the scholarships. Jorge Jarrín, Jaime's son, who sat in on the interview: That's easy, actually. You know, when we started this foundation in honor of my mom, in the back of my mind, I also knew the importance, as my father was nearing the twilight of his career, looking for a way to maintain and uphold the legacy that he has created as an immigrant coming to this country. You know, he knows the trepidation and the fear that comes naturally to an immigrant coming to a nation where he doesn't necessarily really speak the language, doesn't really know a lot of people, is looking to establish roots so that he can, in turn, he or she, in turn, can bring their family so that they can create a better life. So, that's that legacy. And when my mom passed away, I thought, this is the way to do that. Speaking selfishly for a moment, this is a way to accomplish two things. To honor the memory of my mom who created such an environment for us growing up that we never felt neglected. We never felt that we missed out on anything because my father was gone all the time. And there was no guilt. There was nothing negative along that line. And so, knowing that my father, at this point, had been speaking to Latino homes for 60-plus years, I know how people react when they see my father for the first time, when they talk to him, when they have a chance to meet him in person. Because he represents, for many, their childhood growing up, their relationships with their parents, their grandparents, aunts and uncles. He gave them that commonality of which they can talk about together. So, knowing that impact that he has on people, we thought it's one thing to give scholarships. But for a lot of Latinos, to get a scholarship from Jaime Jarrin is even more special. We call them the Jarrín Scholars. And the reason we did journalism, to get back to your original question, journalism and law, two reasons: The journalism honoring the career that my father chose to create, the path that he took. And the law, because we have been fortunate in addition to the Los Angeles Dodgers to have a long and steady career as a spokesperson for Los Defensores. Los Defensores is an organization, it is a cooperative legal marketing firm that represents a network of Spanish-speaking attorneys who are there to help people, Latinos, who don't know the language well, who are intimidated, who may be undocumented. But there are certain rights that they're entitled to under the law, under the Constitution. And we try to empower Latinos to speak up for themselves, to not be afraid, to not be intimidated. So my father has had a 40-year career of being the voice of Los Defensores, too. So it only made sense that because of our association with Los Defensores that we also single out law because overall, we're seeking to help those who are eventually going to be making decisions that affect us as a community and as a society. We want to empower them, we want to help them to be the best that they can be. Unfortunately, you look at for example the state of California, 49% of which are Latinos, and yet less than 3% Latinos pass the bar examination to become attorneys. Less than 6% of the attorneys in the United States are Latinos. Yet it doesn't reflect the numbers of our community in terms of its makeup of demographics, so there's something not right here. And we're trying to get those in a four-year college the help that they need, not only financially but because I've had students say to me: you saw me, you recognized me, and you're willing to invest in my future. Because that's what it is, it's an investment and it's a validation that we see them, we recognize them, we want to support them. That's it in a nutshell. —Thank you to Jaime Jarrín for taking time from their day to answer reader questions. The Jaime and Blanca Jarrín Foundation are having 'Wine Night at the Ravine,' at the centerfield plaza in Dodger Stadium on Aug. 19. For more information and tickets, click here. We'll talk about Mookie Betts and the Dodgers continuing to scuffle (if they still are). Betts was benched Saturday to get a mental reset, then was moved to the leadoff spot Sunday, with Shohei Ohtani moving to the two spot. It has been a tough stretch. They score six runs, the opponent scores seven. But if they hold the opponent to two runs, the Dodgers score just once. When they hit well they don't pitch, when they pitch well they don't hit. And they don't field well most of the time. Freddie Freeman was hit on the wrist by a pitch Sunday and had to leave the game. X-rays were negative, according to the Dodgers, but a wrist injury isn't good for hitters. Luckily for them, the Giants are playing worse, and the Padres are playing just OK.

Ryder Cup update: Keegan Bradley confirms Bryson DeChambeau's inclusion; Chris Gotterup makes huge jump
Scottie Scheffler had locked up his Ryder Cup spot long before he dominated at Royal Portrush for his fourth major title, second this year. But another American used a strong Open showing to secure his place on the U.S. team for Bethpage. While not yet officially clinching an automatic spot, Bryson DeChambeau's T-10 finish at Portrush impressed U.S. captain Keegan Bradley enough for Bradley to confirm to Sports Illustrated via text that DeChambeau will be among the 12 players on his squad. 'Bryson is going to be a very important piece to us winning the Ryder Cup,' Bradley told SI. 'He brings so much. He brings energy, passion but most importantly, he's one of the best players on the planet.' DeChambeau remained fifth in U.S. Ryder Cup points after The Open, and though he has no more opportunities to accrue points – LIV Golf events do not count toward qualification – he's apparently now guaranteed at least a captain's pick. This will be DeChambeau's third Ryder Cup. He went 0-3 in his debut in 2018 in Paris before going 2-0-1 three years later at Whistling Straits. 'I hope I can bring a lot of energy and a tsunami of a crowd that's going to be rooting for Team USA,' DeChambeau said Sunday in Northern Ireland. DeChambeau revealed that he'd spoken to Bradley briefly last week and that Bradley had put personalized notes in several players' lockers. 'It meant a lot,' DeChambeau said before adding, 'This year's no joke. We're tired of it. We're tired of losing.' In other notable U.S. Ryder Cup news, Harris English's runner-up finish launched English, a Ryder Cupper in 2021, into sixth, about 177 points ahead of Justin Thomas. The top six in points after the BMW Championship automatically qualify while Bradley will select six more picks after the Tour Championship. Wyndham Clark, who debuted two years ago in Rome, rose six spots to No. 16 after his T-4 at The Open. Chris Gotterup leaped 19 spots to No. 22 after a huge fortnight overseas in which he won the Genesis Scottish Open and placed third at Portrush. Here's a quick look at the updated standings: U.S. 1. Scottie Scheffler 2. Xander Schauffele 3. J.J. Spaun 4. Russell Henley 5. Bryson DeChambeau 6. Harris English --- 7. Justin Thomas 8. Collin Morikawa 9. Ben Griffin 10. Keegan Bradley 11. Maverick McNealy 12. Brian Harman 13. Andrew Novak 14. Patrick Cantlay 15. Sam Burns Other notables: 19. Cameron Young 21. Tony Finau 24. Akshay Bhatia 26. Jordan Spieth 37. Patrick Reed 39.

Wyndham Clark Breaks Silence on Oakmont Ban: 'I Did Something Awful'
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. With the final major of the season wrapped at Royal Portrush, most players are shifting focus to the FedEx Cup and Ryder Cup prep. But for Wyndham Clark, the close of major season also brought a more personal challenge of clearing the air with Oakmont Country Club. CROMWELL, CONNECTICUT - JUNE 18: Wyndham Clark of the United States in action during the Pro-Am prior to the Travelers Championship 2025 at TPC River Highlands on June 18, 2025 in Cromwell, Connecticut. (Photo by... CROMWELL, CONNECTICUT - JUNE 18: Wyndham Clark of the United States in action during the Pro-Am prior to the Travelers Championship 2025 at TPC River Highlands on June 18, 2025 in Cromwell, Connecticut. (Photo by) More Getty Images After missing the cut at the U.S. Open in June with back-to-back rounds of 74, Clark reportedly damaged multiple lockers in a moment of frustration. The incident, initially kept private, exploded when leaked photos surfaced online. Oakmont responded by banning the 2023 U.S. Open champion from its property, citing discussions with the USGA and its board. The notice surfaced just as the three-time PGA Tour winner was preparing to tee off at Royal Portrush, and he declined to speak to media early in the week. But after rebounding from a poor opening with a final-round 65, Clark addressed the situation publicly for the first time. "Obviously I feel terrible with what happened. I'm doing anything I can to try to remedy the situation," the 31-year-old told reporters Sunday evening. "We're trying to keep it private between Oakmont, myself and the USGA. "I'm just happy we have a pathway moving forward. ... I'm hoping we can get past this and move on and hope there's no ill will towards me and Oakmont." He also expressed disappointment that the club's letter detailing the ban was made public, saying, "Yeah, we were hoping it was going to be private. I'll just leave it at that." This wasn't Clark's only emotional lapse this season. At the PGA Championship in May, he threw his driver into a sponsor sign at Quail Hollow, damaging the display and narrowly missing a volunteer. When asked about the pattern, he didn't deflect. "I've been pretty open about my mental shift and change to get better," he was quoted as saying. "I did that in '23 and '24, and then having a tough year and all the expectations and just frustration all coming together, and I did two stupid things." Per the transcripts, he added, "I hope those things don't reflect because I don't think they reflect on who I am, and going forward that stuff is not going to happen again." Despite the fallout, the former U.S. Open champion still has a route back to Oakmont. Clark confirmed about paying for Oakmont damages According to club president John Lynch's letter, reinstatement requires full repayment for damages, a meaningful contribution to a charity selected by the board, and completion of anger management or counseling sessions. Clark confirmed his commitment to those terms. "Obviously it's a no-brainer to pay for the damages. That was a given," he shared during the post tournament conference. "Then obviously all the apologies, and I want to give back to the community because I hurt a great place in Pittsburgh. ... I want to show them who I really am with the apology and the things I'm going to do." His T4 finish at The Open was his best since a fifth-place showing at the Houston Open in March. After starting the year ranked sixth in the world, Clark had dropped to No. 28 entering Open week. He now sits 22nd in the U.S. Ryder Cup standings, with only the top six after next month's BMW Championship earning automatic spots. That said, Clark's Ryder Cup destination for the year is in the captain's hand for now. More Golf: Bryson DeChambeau Hides 'Personal' Message Amid Ryder Cup Confirmation
