""I still stand by it's up to us and how we play, regardless of opponent," manager Dave Roberts said this week. "Obviously we've talked about us against teams under .500 and how we've played. So it's kind of regardless of the opponent. "The Giants are playing as good of baseball as anyone right now, and they're fighting for a Wild Card, so they're going to give us everything they have. You've got a division rival, team that's hungry and playing well, so it's going to be a battle up there for three nights.""
""By completing a sweep of the Rockies, the Dodgers notched their 82nd win of the year. That amounted to clinching a 15th consecutive winning season, tying an NL record that three other franchises have accomplished. It's shared with the 2008-2022 St. Louis Cardinals, 1991-2005 Atlanta Braves, 1939-1953 Cardinals and 1899-1913 Pittsburgh Pirates.""
The Dodgers remain positioned for a 13th straight playoff appearance and a potential 12th consecutive National League West title during that span, leading San Diego by 2.5 games with a magic number of 13. The team finished a 1-5 road trip with a victory against Baltimore, then swept Colorado to extend a four-game winning streak built against sub-.500 opponents. The sweep produced the 82nd win and clinched a 15th consecutive winning season, tying a National League record shared with several historic franchises. The Giants are recognized as strong competitors battling for a Wild Card.
