The Los Angeles Dodgers strengthened their momentum to go straight to the Division Series with a strong rotation at the end of the season.

The Dodgers won the final game of the three consecutive home games against the Colorado Rockies at Dodger Stadium on the 11th (Korea time) with Mookie Betts' five-run blast and starter Blake Snell's scoreless pitching.

The Dodgers, which have won four consecutive games since the game against the Baltimore Orioles on the 8th, have maintained their lead in the NL West with 82-64 losses. The San Diego Padres (79 wins and 67 losses), ranked second in the district, lost to the Cincinnati Reds 1-2 on the same day, and the game against the Dodgers widened to three games.




The Dodgers are not interested in San Diego. In order to go straight to the division series without going through the wild card series, it is not easy to catch up with the Philadelphia Phillies, who are ranked first in the East Division. Philadelphia beat the New York Mets 11-3 to complete a three-game sweep, marking 86 wins and 60 losses and maintaining a four-game ride with the Dodgers.

The Dodgers will bring Philadelphia home from the 16th to the 18th and have a three-game series that they can never miss. Earlier in April, the Dodgers were pushed to 1-2 in three consecutive games held at Citizens Bank Park. In order to win a direct ticket to the Division Series, you need to win at least a winning series this time.

Betts led the Dodgers' victory on the day. He hit four hits in five at-bats, including a home run, and hit five RBIs, his most this season. Betts continued his RBI streak in the last seven consecutive games and five consecutive games until the day. In particular, he showed off his peak clutch ability by hitting three home runs and 13 RBIs in five games.




With this, Betts has a batting average of 0.260 (138 hits in 531 at-bats), 18 homers, 74 RBIs, 86 runs, and an OPS of 0.737, which is now approaching 'name value'.

Snell, who started for the seventh time since returning from injury in early August, pitched six innings of two hits and no runs, winning four wins (four losses) this season, lowering his ERA to 2.79. In particular, strikeouts showed off their prowess by catching 11 ties, the most in a game this season.

The Dodgers have shown great performance in the last six games, with all the starting pitchers pitching well. Shohei Ohtani allowed three hits in three ⅔ against Baltimore on the 6th, Yoshinobu Yamamoto allowed one hit and one run in eight ⅔ against Baltimore on the 7th, Clayton Kershaw allowed four hits and two runs in five ⅔ against Baltimore on the 8th, followed by Tyler Glasnow (seven innings of no hit, one run, 11 strikeouts), Emmett Sian (seven innings, three hits, one run and nine strikeouts), and Snell on the day.




It seems that he has achieved what he dreamed of at the beginning of the season. There is no choice but to consider who should be excluded from the postseason selection.

The Dodgers pushed from the beginning. In the bottom of the second inning, Tommy Edman got on base due to a third baseman error and took the opportunity. Miguel Rojas' hit to the left-center field led to first and second bases with no outs. Andy Parz then called Edman with a double that hit the fence in the left-center field to score the first run. The Dodgers, who added one run with Kike Hernandez's sacrifice fly at the first and third bases with no outs, added two runs with Ohtani's timely hit and Mookie Betts' double to the left to widen the gap to 4-0.

The Dodgers, which had been in a lull, scored five runs in the bottom of the eighth inning to decide the game. With the bases loaded with one out, Betts pulled right-hander Anthony Molina's 96.1-mile fastball in the middle of the three-ball and connected it to a grand slam that easily crossed the left-center fence. It was his 18th home run of the season with an angle of 25 degrees, a 103 mile batting speed, and a 393-foot flying distance, and his seventh career grand slam.

Teoscar Hernandez then hit a solo shot over the middle to seal the victory.

Kim Hye-sung stepped up as a pinch hitter after two outs in the eighth inning, but was out with a fly to right field.
