Flashback to Monday night, September 14; the Dodgers, with the best win-loss record in Major League Baseball’s cardboard 2020 season, were on the road to play the young, upstart San Diego Padres. The Padres were making a charge to overtake the Dodgers for the lead in the National League West. They had won their last […]

A word of caution: If you are faint of heart or cannot handle high-pressure situations, do not watch Dodgers baseball right now; doing so can be extremely hazardous to your health.
