With the playoffs officially underway, the Dodgers are aiming to redeem themselves from the issues that plagued them last season. LA knows what happened a year ago against the San Diego Padres, and they want to make sure that the same things don’t happen again.
But this is a different team, with many different players on the roster. They play with more of a team-first approach, and they’ve learned how to win different types of games throughout the season.
They also have a stronger chemistry throughout the locker room, and it has translated to a ton of success on the field, even if it didn’t quite work out in Game 1 of the NLDS.
