The Los Angeles Dodgers are faced with a week off since sweeping the Milwaukee Brewers in the National League Championship Series to the start of the World Series on Friday.
The time off is a potential challenge for them to overcome, as the Dodgers won’t be able to stay in rhythm and will need to keep their focus and intensity while not playing in games.
However, it’s also a similar circumstance to what they dealt with last October, when they finished with the best MLB record and had a bye in the first round of the playoffs.
