Heading into the final series of their current homestand, the Dodgers are still lingering in second place in the West division, currently sitting 2-1/2 games behind the Diamondbacks. In the first two contests against the Rockies over the weekend, the club’s offense was dormant; however, in the finale, the bats woke up and the Boys in Blue were able to salvage a 6-4 victory.
Beginning on Monday, the Pirates come to town, having won four of their last six games at the expense of the Mets and the Padres. Still, Pittsburgh is sitting in fourth place in the NL Central with a 40-43 record.
