The Los Angeles Dodgers have a major decision to make surrounding All-Star third baseman Max Muncy. The 35-year-old slugger broke out of quite the slump during the first two months of the season and batted .258 with a .880 OPS and 17 home runs before he suffered an oblique strain in mid August. In other news, specifically for those who claim that the Dodgers are ruining baseball, Game 7 of the World Series hit historic television ratings across the United States, Canada, and Japan.

But the biggest thing I would say is it speaks to the fact that I've had a chance to play in so many postseason games. And that's the biggest thing about being a Dodger, you know you'll have a chance in October to play meaningful baseball games. To be able to have that chance every single year I've been here, that's always been the most important thing to me.

Max Muncy became the new Los Angeles Dodgers postseason home run leader with his blast in Game 2 of the National League Championship Series. That gave Muncy a total of 14 career home runs in the playoffs. Muncy had been tied with Corey Seager and Justin Turner for the all-time Dodgers home run record in the postseason at 13 each. Muncy hit his 13th career postseason home run during Dodgers' blowout win against the New York Mets in Game 3.

"I've done everything possible. It's just kind of the same result. I'm out of answers. I've done everything I can do. It's up to God at this point."
