In what is hopefully just a trial post for many more celebration recaps to come, the Dodgers had a modest celebration for making the playoffs after an … eventful 2018 season.
Gotta get there to win it.

Dave Roberts addressed the team for a bit before things kicked off.
"We're going to celebrate this victory understanding we have a lot of important baseball ahead."

You see, Jerry Hairston was responsible for starting a debate on the hottest Dodgers player.

Anyway, one significant piece of news that heavily impacts tomorrow is that apparently Max Scherzer will not be starting because of … rest.
Change of plans from the Nationals: Because both Dodgers and Rockies are in the playoffs, Max Scherzer will NOT pitch tomorrow, Davey said. Fedde will go.

Not sure that argument makes any sense considering they were out of contention a while ago if it was that pressing, but okay. Just gotta keep winning.
