To say this season has been frustrating is an understatement. Every time the Dodgers seem to get things going, some other piece of bad news hits the fan. It has been said that during any series at Coors Field, the best you can hope for is to get in, get out and hopefully everyone escape healthy. It didn’t quite happen that way this time.
The Dodgers offense went flat, they lost their All-Star closer Kenley Jansen for up to a month with an irregular heartbeat, and the remaining relievers were unable to hold any ninth inning tie or lead.
