"It is, but I do think a switch can be flipped," Roberts explained. "But it doesn't feel good saying that, because I think there's a certain way you go about things and each day should be equally important. "Every little play, pitch, should be equally important. How you do anything is how you do everything, that adage, I believe in that. "Again, when you're playing a long season, it's hard to be that locked in every single pitch. But I'm not going to not try to ask our guys to do that."

The chase for the NL West crown is heating up. The Los Angeles Dodgers are back at Dodger Stadium this weekend, so grab your Dodgers gear, cheer loud and support the Boys in Blue. And when you're not at the ballpark or watching them on TV, LA's got a full lineup of fun events waiting for you all weekend long!

Vesia was one of the few Dodgers pitchers who had avoided the injured list until now. Only Anthony Banda has made more appearances than Vesia, who has gotten into 59 contests. He owns a 2.75 earned run average while striking out 33% of opponents across 52 1/3 frames. Vesia has collected four saves and recorded a career-best 21 holds. It's his second straight excellent season.

Taehyung Kim, more popularly known as V from the South Korean boy band BTS, visited Dodger Stadium on Monday to the joy of many fans. V was honored by throwing out the ceremonial first pitch and saying "It's time for Dodger baseball" before the game began. Each time he went onto the field, high-pitched cheers filled the stadium from a packed crowd of 49,702 people.

"Having Ultraman step onto the field at the legendary Dodger Stadium is a further celebration of how sports and pop culture unite fans across generations,"

"He's got to get better out there. There's just no way to put it. I know there's effort - it's not a lack of effort. But the thing is, we've just got to get better. We do. I don't know what else to say."

Yoshinobu Yamamoto allowed three runs over seven innings in the Dodgers' 4-3 walk-off loss to the Rockies, snapping Los Angeles' three-game winning streak.
