The harmonic convergence between the resurrected Jason Heyward and the rampaging Los Angeles Dodgers crystallized beautifully one evening in Baltimore last month.
It was in the top of the second inning at Camden Yards when Heyward smashed a three-run home run off the right-hander Tyler Wells, opening the gates to a five-run inning.
And the Dodgers, being the Dodgers, adjusted accordingly.
“I told him the situation, that my bet was that they were going to use a lefty the rest of the way,” said Manager Dave Roberts.
“I told him, ‘You did your job to help us win this game.’ And he was like, ‘Doc, I’m in.’”
