The fans are probably in between, because they went into this season pretty much only looking forward...

Yeli and Beli both suck now

Bellinger and Dodgers’ Kid ’n Play footsie is adorable alternative to hazardous homer celebrations
You could see the playfulness right from the first tap, as Cody Bellinger crossed home plate and morphed into the “Kid” to Max Muncy’s “Play.” Belli just kept on tapping toes the whole way back to the dugout.

Cody Bellinger Socked The Ideal Dinger
This home run, Cody Bellinger’s seventh of the season, happened last night, but it’s a highlight worth replaying over and over again, if only because the audio is so satisfying.

Manny Machado's Wonderful Slide Finally Puts Everyone To Bed
The Dodgers scored a run in the first inning of tonight’s NLCS Game 4, and then the Brewers matched them with a run in the fifth, sending starter Rich Hill to go terrorize some Halloween treats in the dugout.
