Dodgers News: Trea Turner Capitalizes on Swing Fix from Last Day of the Season in NLDS Game 1

Dodgers shortstop, Trea Turner, struggled over the last few weeks of the season, batting just .230 with a .535 OPS in 19 games from September 16 to October 4.

On the final day of the regular season, though, Turner went 2-for-4 with a homer, giving hope that he had figured something out just in time for the postseason. Turner has mostly struggled in the postseason throughout his career, batting .228 with a .561 OPS in 39 games heading into last night’s NLDS Game 1 against the Padres.

Trea went 2-for-4 with a double and a homer in Game 1, narrowly missing another homer on a ball that was caught at the wall in left field.
