LOS ANGELES — It was touted as the biggest series of the month. It was billed as a potential passing of the torch, with the San Diego Padres threatening to win the National League West for the first time in 19 years. Instead, Sunday’s finale ended in a three-game sweep — and a relatively convincing one, at that.

It was a big series to start, with the San Diego Padres moving a single game ahead of the Los Angeles Dodgers atop the National League West. That got the attention of Dave Roberts and his defending World Series Champions.

The Los Angeles Dodgers reasserted themselves in the National League West this weekend, and Mookie Betts was a huge cause of that success.

Mired in a season-long slump, Mookie Betts hits a dramatic go-ahead homer in the bottom of the eight to lead Dodgers over Padres.
