Dodgers slugger Cody Bellinger has been through it all this year. In an ocean of low moments, his high point was Tuesday night. The embattled former NL MVP launched a game-tying three-run home run off of Luke Jackson to swing Game 3 of the NLCS. The Dodgers went on to win 6-5.
After slashing an anemic .165/.240/.302 in the regular season, Bellinger’s confidence was at an all-time low. According to manager Dave Roberts, Bellinger wondered if he’d ever get a hit again.
