Orel Hershiser, one of the key members of the Los Angeles Dodgers' 1988 World Series championship team, will interview for the club's vacant managerial job. General manager Paul DePodesta confirmed Friday the club had requested and been granted permission by the Texas Rangers to speak with Hershiser, who was among baseball's top pitchers from 1983-2000, compiling a career record of 204-150 with a 3.48 ERA. An interview will take place early next week in the Los Angeles area, DePodesta said.
