Hi, and welcome to another edition of Dodgers Dugout. My name is Houston Mitchell and I really don’t like those Matthew McConaughey Carl’s Jr. commercials.
The Dodgers swept the Padres, which can be looked at in one of two ways: 1) It’s the Padres, so no big deal, or 2) The Dodgers did what they needed to do, and that shouldn’t be downplayed just because of who they played.
Before the Padres (three games) and Texas (two games) series began, I told myself that the Dodgers needed to win four of the five games to get back into the flow of things.
