ATLANTA — The Dodgers had the right runner on base, but the wrong matchups at the plate.
And, in a sign of what’s perhaps been their biggest roster vulnerability early on this season, manager Dave Roberts had no way to alter the situation.
After trailing by four runs to the Atlanta Braves early on Sunday night, the Dodgers positioned themselves for a potential comeback in the top of the ninth.
With the deficit down to one, Andy Pages stayed alive in a two-strike count for a leadoff infield single.
