After one of their best stretch of games on the season, the Dodgers have suddenly forgotten how to hit in critical moments. They have lost 4 of their last 7 games, and the offense is the main culprit for their lack of recent success.
This isn’t to say that they have gone completely cold, as they have still been averaging over 4 runs per game. The issue has been timely hitting, namely coming up with a big hit in a key situation. All 4 of their recent losses have been by 1 or 2 runs, and they have left a combined 40 runners on base throughout the 7-game stretch.
