Don't blame the playoff format on another Dodgers playoff fiasco

Plenty of reasons explain why the Dodgers lost to the Diamondbacks in the NLDS. Having five days off because of the playoff format isn't one of them.

Mookie Betts did not hit. Freddie Freeman did not hit. Clayton Kershaw did not get out of the first inning. Bobby Miller did not get out of the second inning. Andrew Friedman, the Dodgers president of baseball operations, did not properly fortify the roster at the trade deadline. Dave Roberts, who had pledged to manage Wednesday’s game as if it were a Game 7, left a pitcher prone to giving up home runs in the game long enough to give up four in one inning.

177 in the series, with one home run to the Diamondbacks’ nine. The Dodgers scored six runs in the series, as many as Arizona scored in the first inning of the first game. “We weren’t swinging the bat great at the end of the season,” Max Muncy said. “We get a week off, and we clearly weren’t able to get hot again. “I don’t know if it’s five days off, or if it’s not. All I know is, we didn’t get big hits in big situations, and that’s really all it boils down to.
