Dodgers News: Dave Roberts, Clayton Kershaw & Edwin Rios Surprised Globe Life Field Roof Wasn’t Closed In Game 4 Of NLCS

The Los Angeles Dodgers dropped Game 4 of the National League Championship Series and now trail 3-1 to the Atlanta Braves, sitting them one loss away from elimination.

In addition to the Dodgers’ lack of production at the plate, something that also made headlines during Game 4 was the Globe Life Field roof being left open despite swirling winds that affected players’ vision at times.

Despite the strong winds, Major League Baseball decided to keep the roof open. The Dodgers and Braves were not given a reason for that, although various reports indicated it was in part due to coronavirus (COVID-19) concerns with fans in the stadium.
