The Los Angeles Dodgers seemingly played through a carryover of celebrating their clinching of a seventh consecutive National League West title as they erased an early deficit but suffered a 7-3 loss to the Baltimore Orioles.
Since beginning their current streak of NL West titles in 2013, the Dodgers fell to 2-5 (including Game 1 of the 2018 NL Division Series) in the ensuing game after clinching the division.
Much of their trouble Wednesday night stemmed from a lack of baserunners. David Freese hit a single in the first inning but was stranded, and Austin Barnes was left on base after drawing a walk in the third.
