  • Nine years ago, the Dodgers clinched the National League West with a win over the Diamondbacks in Phoenix, and when they found out the DBacks were concerned about them jumping in the Chase Field pool to celebrate ... well, they decided to jump in the Chase Field pool to celebrate.Tonight, the Dodgers have a chance to clinch the division in Arizona again, with either a win over the DBacks or a Padres lo s in Seattle.But Dodgers manager Los Angeles Dodgers Jersey Dave Roberts doesn't expect a repeat of the pool party.Nice years is a long time. Back in 2013, Yasiel Puig was a precocious 22-year-old rookie with a lot more impulse control i sues than experience. Kenley Jansen and Clayton Kershaw were 25, Matt Kemp was 28, and Hanley Ramirez and Zack Greinke were 29.The 2013 Dodgers hadn Fernando Valenzuela Jersey 't won the division in four years, and they had been in last place as late as June 30. They rode a historically improbable hot streak from 9.5 games back to a division clinch in just under three months.Scroll to ContinueBetween the youthful exuberance and the unexpected nature of their division win plus a little bit of a defiant streak that didn't like being told they couldn't jump in the pool celebrating that title in the Forbidden Pool made a lot of sense.The 2022 Dodgers are different.

This will be the ninth division title in the last ten years, and the Dodgers have played in three of the last five World Series Logan Forsythe Jersey and won one of them. They have representatives of the last four World Series champions on this team, and more than half the current roster has played for a World Series winner.Simply put, it's easy for these Dodgers to "act like they've been there before," because, well, they have. Joc Pederson Jersey When they clinch the division title, they will celebrate, because it's an accomplishment that deserves to be celebrated.
