The Dodgers have been showing a strong trend in their recent games, with a notable performance against the Washington Nationals where they secured an 11-2 victory.

The bullpen and starting pitchers have also been contributing significantly to the team's success. In their last game against the Nationals, the bullpen maintained a perfect 0.00 ERA over three innings pitched, while starters held an ERA of just 2.00 across nine innings of work.


Defensively, the Dodgers have been solid with no errors in that game and maintaining a fielding percentage of 1.000 which speaks volumes about their defensive reliability.

However, it's not just one game that defines this team's current form; looking back at previous games against teams like the Mets shows that when their bats catch fire, they can be unstoppable – highlighted by an explosive eight-run inning which contributed to a dominant 10-0 win.


As we approach this matchup at Rogers Centre – known for its hitter-friendly confines – it will be interesting to see if the Dodgers can maintain their offensive prowess while managing any challenges posed by playing away from home.
