'In the finale of a three-game set against the New York Yankees in what was billed as a World Series preview, the Dodgers’ bats instead offered a World Series review,' BillPlaschke writes.
The score of the season-ending loss to the Boston Red Sox in the 2018 World Series was 5-1.The score of the season-ending loss to the Houston Astros in the 2017 World Series was 5-1.
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts talks with the home plate umpire during Sunday's loss to the New York Yankees. Ask any Dodgers executive and they will insist it was the offense — not the maligned bullpen or beleaguered starters — that was the leading cause of those two World Series losses. This is one reason they brought in hitting guru Robert Van Scoyoc.
In the first inning, Corey Seager struck out on three pitches. In the third inning, Cody Bellinger grounded out on the first pitch and Seager flied out to deep center field on the first pitch. Indeed, none of the Dodgers hitters had faced the 27-year-old right-hander, but Roberts knows that reasoning won’t fly in late October in a World Series that could be filled with unfamiliar pitchers. And their problems weren’t just with German.
