The Dodgers or the field?
Are the Dodgers so good halfway through this ad hoc season in which we thought anything could happen that we should start thinking in terms of 1 vs. 29? To turn the famed sports road exhortation into the key question of this baseball season: Can anybody beat L.A.?
We know it’s not the Rockies, who are now 3-24 in their past 27 tries against Los Angeles. The Dodgers summarily dismissed Colorado in a three-game weekend sweep, outscoring the Rockies, 20-7. Thirty games in, having added Mookie Betts and the designated hitter to what was a 106-win team, the Dodgers are even better than advertised.
