The Los Angeles Dodgers enter play Tuesday night in the midst of their second three-game winning streak this season, and having scored 30 runs over the stretch.
While the Dodgers erupted for 12 runs in their rout of the Pittsburgh Pirates, there wasn’t complete satisfaction expressed by manager Dave Roberts. “You can always get better (as a team),” he said.
“Certain guys in our lineup are having consistent at-bats, and I think other guys are still finding ways to get hits. I still think the at-bat quality needs to get better.”
The Dodgers have been sparked by Cody Bellinger’s arrival, Chris Taylor’s emergence, and Yasiel Puig’s flashes of excellence at the plate.
