PHOENIX (AP) — The Los Angeles Dodgers’ third straight 100-win season led to a third consecutive postseason flop. “There’s some things with the format that people can dissect or whatever, but the bottom line is that the last two years we’ve got outplayed in the postseason,” Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said. The Dodgers won the NL West in 10 of those seasons, yet their only World Series in that span was following the pandemic-shortened 2020 season. And after winning 100 games this season, the Dodgers were swept by Arizona, which had 16 fewer wins. It's just how I didn't help the team win the series and that's the most disappointing part, letting your guys down.”___

September 23 - Sean Manaea did not allow a run over a season-high seven innings and the visiting San Francisco Giants picked up a much-needed victory on Friday, beating the Los Angeles Dodgers 5-1. He did not allow a runner to reach second base en route to his first career win over the Dodgers in 10 appearances (seven starts). Freddie Freeman had two hits and an RBI for the Dodgers to reach 200 hits for the first time in his career. The Giants called on Joc Pederson for an early-pinch hit assignment, and the former Dodger doubled in the fourth inning against right-hander Gavin Stone. After Dodgers left-hander Caleb Ferguson opened with a scoreless inning, Stone (1-1) gave up three runs on three hits in 4 1/3 innings with two walks and five strikeouts.

If it feels like the Baltimore Orioles have accomplished something historic these past couple years, there are some numbers that back that up. That was the New York Giants, way back at the beginning of the modern era. But Baltimore, which clinched a playoff berth Sunday, could still join the Giants with an improvement of over .300. There's actually a Baltimore connection to those New York Giants. The Baltimore franchise then moved to New York and became the Highlanders, who would eventually be called the Yankees.
