That brings them to a four-game series in Arizona in early May. OK, with the intense history between the two, the Dodgers could lose there.

They’ve won with ailing Mookie Betts and injured Freddie Freeman having played together in just two of the eight games. They’ve won with shutout starting pitching. They’ve won with anonymous relievers.
