Dodgers News: Strikeouts Are a Big Issue According to One Time LA Coach

“Strikeouts, key situations, getting the guys over. putting the ball in play and then you have guys in scoring position,” McGwire said. “They were not very good with driving men in scoring position and they had a tough time throughout the year of scoring a lot of runs without hitting home runs. Not that they didn’t do it over 162, but it showed up in the playoffs, and if you’re not hitting home runs, it’s a hard way, especially in the back end of a game and you’re facing the best of the best in their bullpen, it’s hard to get hits, three or four hits in a row to score a couple of runs. It’s really hard to do.”

It is very important for the Dodgers to not end the season in the disappointing fashion they did. The Dodgers clearly were capable of winning ball games all season long so it’s up to the talent to show up and score runs when it matters most.
