Perhaps the funniest thing about the Dodgers’ victory over the Angels on Saturday night was the notion that most fans out there, as well as the players, coaching staff, and management, were hoping to add a few insurance runs late in the game after putting a whopping 13 runs on the board early.
Seemingly, manager Dave Roberts was able to finally breathe after his club jumped out to a 13-0 lead in the fifth inning. The skipper pulled some of his best players at that point, including his horses at the top of the lineup—Mookie Betts, Corey Seager, and Justin Turner.
