Former Brooklyn Dodger and MLB manager Gene Mauch once said, “Most one run games are lost, not won.”
The three-way race for the NL West Division title is heating up, and the Dodgers find themselves 3 1/2 games back and in third place with 35 games remaining in the regular season. It’s a little too close for comfort for the reigning NL West champs, and some frustrating one-run losses could be the difference between getting a shot at getting back to the World Series and sitting the entire postseason out this October.
