Dodgers Drop 6 Straight After Back-to-Back Sweeps
Los Angeles has been swept by Chicago and Boston in succession, raising questions about the team's current form despite their offseason spending.
The Los Angeles Dodgers have lost six consecutive games after being swept by the Chicago Cubs, following an earlier sweep at the hands of the Boston Red Sox. During the six-game losing streak, the Dodgers were outscored 42-22 by their opponents. The skid represents a notable slump for one of baseball's highest-payroll teams. The sustained poor performance may signal underlying issues with pitching, offense, or both.
