Cody Bellinger, Mookie Betts fuel Los Angeles Dodgers’ 11-run 1st in win over Cards

Among the most overlooked aspects of the 2021 Los Angeles Dodgers is that they have been playing good baseball — though perhaps not to the level of their outsized expectations — despite minimal production from their three best position players: Mookie Betts, Cody Bellinger and Corey Seager. On Wednesday night, in a 14-3 rout of […]

Cody Bellinger ‘super excited’ to return to lineup for Los Angeles Dodgers

Bellinger, who was out for nearly two months with a hairline fracture in his left leg, started in center field and batted cleanup Saturday against the San Francisco Giants, going 0-for-4 with a walk and a run scored. Bellinger had offseason shoulder surgery after the Dodgers won the World Series and said this has been […]

An initial 13-2 record has been followed by 15 losses in a stretch of 20 games, a stunning reversal that has the Dodgers at […]

April MLB Quirkjians — From Jazz and Pop to Ryan, Ryan, Ryan and Brian

The Quirkjians are of my own making, an obsession for nearly 60 years. I’ve always loved arcane stats, odd connections of arbitrary names and numbers, amazing coincidences that baseball, more than any other sport, always provides. Every night that you go to a major league game, or watch one on TV, you might see something […]

Game 1 of Los Angeles Dodgers vs. San Diego Padres lives up to the hype

We can say this with confidence: Dodgers-Padres did not disappoint. It was the most widely anticipated matchup in baseball this season, built up so much over these past six months that there was no way these games between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the San Diego Padres could possibly live up to the hype. And […]
