Opinion: For the battered, once-mighty Dodgers, talk is cheap against streaking Braves

LOS ANGELES — The Los Angeles Dodgers tried to say the right things Wednesday night.

They tried to sound optimistic.

They tried to convey hope that their season will stay alive.

Sorry, not a soul fell for the act.

It’s over.

The Dodgers won 106 games in the regular season, won the wild-card game against the St. Louis Cardinals in dramatic fashion and outlasted the San Francisco Giants in a grueling National League Division Series. But it will come to a screeching halt Thursday night at Dodger Stadium.
