Giants beat Dodgers to take 3rd straight series, reach .500" Published on April 30, 2018 at 08:49AM by By Henry Schulman As the Dodgers rolled toward the airport Sunday amid controversy and bitterness between their manager and big-hitting first baseman, they bade farewell to San Francisco until the final week of the season, a bizarre feature of the schedule. Where will these teams be when the boys of blue return? Will the Dodgers be back atop the National League West, finishing off their sixth consecutive division title? Perhaps. They have the pedigree, the horses and a history of playing better as the weeks progress. The Giants? Nobody around baseball expects them to be playing for anything in Games 160, 161 and 162.
