Fred Claire, the general manager of the World Series-winning Dodgers in 1988 and a longtime public relations executive with the team, died at his home in Pasadena on Monday night, his 91st birthday.

Dodgers turn to Yoshinobu Yamamoto on the road in NLDS Game 3
Trying to hit against Chris Sale sometimes seems like trying to to catch a chainsaw, so the Dodgers will have their work cut out for them. But they’ll also have reliable ace Yoshinobu Yamamoto on the mound for Game 3 of the National League Championship Series at Truist Park in Atlanta. Yamamoto started four games […]
Shohei Ohtani, Hank Aaron Award finalist, still searching at the plate
Dodgers designated hitter has won the Hank Aaron Award, the honor given annually to the top offensive player in his league, in each of the previous three seasons, in 2023 with the Angels then in 2024-25 in his first two years with the Dodgers.

How to watch Dodgers at Braves NLDS Game 3
Having lost home-field advantage after a Game 2 defeat, the Dodgers head to Atlanta needing at least one win to bring the series back to Dodger Stadium.

Thoughts on first two Dodgers-Braves NLDS games
LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers are now in Atlanta in what his whittled to a best-of-3 National League Division Series, with the Braves suddenly in the driver’s seat as the home team on Tuesday and Wednesday. The Dodgers starting rotation is their biggest advantage, which is one reason Sunday night was so frustrating. Blake Snell […]
The Dodgers outsmarted themselves
The good news is that the Dodgers’ primary doomsday scenarios (San Diego winning or getting swept à la 2023) are either extremely unlikely to happen or mathematically impossible. A champion contender taking a commanding 2-0 NLDS series lead, snatching victory from the jaws of defeat? What a game. Oh wait. I’m thinking of the almost […]
Next game at Dodger Stadium is up in the air
LOS ANGELES — By losing Game 2 of the National League Division Series on Sunday night, the Dodgers and Braves are now tied at one game apiece in the series, and home-field advantage wrests with Atlanta with the next two games at Truist Park. The Dodgers need to win at least once in Atlanta to […]
Dodgers bullpen undone by offense’s shortcomings
The reflection of the performance by the Dodgers bullpen in Game 2 of the NLDS is entirely skewed by a dismal offensive showing, making it extremely unlikely the home team could secure a 2-0 series lead. A rabbit hole exists for those who favor a pessimistic outlook, with Chris Sale starting the next game fully […]
Blake Snell’s rocky outing leads to de facto bullpen game
The Dodgers needed one win to send the Atlanta Braves to the brink of elimination on Sunday. Instead, the Braves lineup forced an early exit from Blake Snell and scored two defining runs against the bullpen in a 3-2 win over the Dodgers, forcing the series back to Atlanta for Games 3 and 4. It […]
Josue De Paula the youngest Dodgers position player in postseason in 61 years
LOS ANGELES — Josue De Paula popped out as a pinch-hitter for the final out of Game 2, in his major league postseason debut. The comeback attempt fell short, but just by getting into a game at his age was notable. De Paula on Sunday was 21 years, 133 days old, and became only the […]
Dodgers NLDS notes: Blake Snell, Freddie Freeman, Didier Fuentes
The Dodgers and Braves shift their National League Division Series to Atlanta, tied at one game apiece. On the off day Monday, let’s look back a little more at the disappointing Game 2 loss by Los Angeles. Blake Snell got only 11 outs on 90 pitches, and though he only allowed one run, the Dodgers […]
MLB playoff schedule: It’s American League Monday

Braves bullpen leaves Dodgers fit to be tied in NLDS Game 2
LOS ANGELES — Turns out, Sunday was a bullpen game for both teams at Dodger Stadium, whether by design or not. But the Dodgers managed only two runs against six Braves pitchers in a slog of a game and a 3-2 loss to even the National League Division Series at one game apiece. Blake Snell […]

Miguel Rojas is in for Max Muncy in the Game 2 lineup
Whether Chris Sale was going to get the ball or not was the big point of contention before this Game 2, but with Atlanta opting for another left-hander, Ray Kerr, the Dodgers’ lineup is mostly unchanged from the Game 1 victory. The only difference is Miguel Rojas filling in for Max Muncy, and even that […]
Blake Snell’s time to shine
Nearing 34 years of age, Blake Snell has spoken about his belief in solidifying a Hall of Fame case by building up his legacy in postseason action—evidently, that desire played a role in him signing with the Dodgers, a team that doesn’t necessarily need him to get to this position but might benefit greatly from […]

Tarik Skubal beat the heat, and the Braves
LOS ANGELES — On a day in 100-degree heat, the second-highest temperature ever for a postseason game at Dodger Stadium, Tarik Skubal reared back and fired a 101.1-mph fastball to Austin Riley in the second inning of the Dodgers’ win over the Atlanta Braves in Game 1 of the National League Division Series. “ I think […]
Dodgers utilized advantages over Braves in Game 1
Choosing how much to take from a single game in the postseason is a challenge. Tarik Skubal did what you expect from baseball’s most talented pitcher. The Dodgers out-homered the Braves three to two with the superior offense. Kyle Tucker hopefully started his redemption tour with a homer in his first playoff affair for the […]
