After the Los Angeles Dodgers lost their fifth game in a row on Saturday evening, there was tons of frustration in the air.
For each team with championships powers, the loss of five games in a row is brutal to start September. If you do this as the reigning champions of the competition is one thing, but for the fifth loss of the slip after 8.2 no-hit innings by Yoshinobu Yamamoto, the morally seemed to have reached a new low point.
Fortunately, the Dodgers have become somewhat on the right track with two straight victories, but it is difficult to have faith in the team at the moment.
Right field player Teoscar Hernández spoke about how his team should continue and trust each other despite the slump.

“For me, not the same as last year is a bit frustrating,” said Hernández. “I don’t want to be. I want to be better than last year. But it’s baseball. It’s life. You just have to keep working, keep trusting yourself and the things you can do to help the team.”
The last two games of the unfortunate series were through the Walk-Off victories through the Baltimore Orioles. Although the Dodgers could save themselves from another series of Sweep on Sunday thanks to eight strikeouts from Clayton Kershaw over 5.2 Innings, a few Shohei Ohtani -home runs and a Mookie Betts Dinger, this season did not have a shortage of low points.
“You just leave everything on the field,” said Hernández. “I keep working, keep doing my routine, keep doing the things I normally do to get back on the right track. And hopefully I get the results that I want to help the team.”
Fortunately, the results started to show, but there are only 18 games to go until the late season. Regardless of what happened to the Dodgers, the Ball Club has to turn things around before it’s too late.
