Dodgers' Kike Hernandez says, uncensored, “We don't give a fuck” on live TV after leading the team to the NLCS

Los Angeles Dodgers player Kike Hernandez had arguably the biggest game of his career on Friday, using his postgame spotlight to say the F-word on live television without being censored in front of a live national audience.

With a narrow 2-0 win over the San Diego Padres on Friday, the Dodgers return to the NLCS for the first time since 2021. The Dodgers' Game 5 win also marked the first MLB postseason series win in Shohei Ohtani's career.

When Hernandez was asked after the game what sets his team apart from the teams of the last three years that fell short in the postseason, he said, “The fact that we don't give a shit!”

Hernandez even arranged for his comment to be made during a live broadcast on FOX. The explicit word was not censored during broadcast.

Hernandez hit a home run in the game, leading Los Angeles to a decisive victory.

Hernandez was part of the team's last World Series championship in 2020, when the team won the title in the COVID-shortened season. He was also part of the team's World Series losses to the Houston Astros in 2017 and the Boston Red Sox in 2018.

After joining the Boston Red Sox in 2021, Hernandez was traded back to the Dodgers in July last season before entering free agency last winter. Hernandez re-signed with the team on a one-year, $4 million contract to return to the team.

Now Hernandez will help lead the team back to the World Series when they face the New York Mets in the NLCS.

Game 1 is scheduled for Sunday night at Dodger Stadium.
