In his fifth year at the helm, manager Dave Roberts led the Los Angeles Dodgers to their first World Series Championship in 32 years. As their manager, Dave Roberts has led the Dodgers to five straight National League West titles, three National League pennants and now a World Series title.
He has made his share of head-scratching moves during his tenure as LA’s skipper, but the 2020 postseason saw Dave Roberts at his best when it came to decision-making. From pushing the right bullpen buttons, going with the right pinch hitters, to trusting Julio Urías in key moments, Dave Roberts’ improvement as a manager was evident throughout the 2020 postseason.
