That was Game 3 of the Division Series, a 3-2 game entering the eighth that turned into a blowout with Clayton Kershaw wearing it during a second inning of work when Tanner Scott wasn’t available.
After that came a thrilling 11-inning NLDS clincher, followed by a stunning sweep of the Milwaukee Brewers in the NLCS, and now the Dodgers are 10-0 against NL teams to open the 2026 season (plus 5-4 against American League opponents). Ten straight wins against National League teams ties the Dodgers’ best streak ever to start a season. Brooklyn in 1955 started the season 10-0 (and 22-2) en route to their first World Series championship, and the 1940 team was right behind them at 9-0 to open the year.
Counting last year’s postseason, the Dodgers have won 15 games in a row against NL teams. Their longest overall winning streak in franchise history is 15 games, by Brooklyn from August 25 to September 6, 1924. So the Dodgers on Saturday have a chance to have their longest-ever win streak against National League teams.
At 15-4 overall, the Dodgers are tied with the Brooklyn 1940 team for their third-best start to a season in franchise history, behind only the 1955 team and the 1977 pennant winners in Los Angeles, who started 17-3. Against NL teams, the Dodgers have scored 68 runs and allowed only 29. There have been three one-run victories (March 27-28 vs.
the Arizona Diamondbacks, Tuesday against the Mets), plus three wins by six runs, and one each by seven, five, four, and two. This current road trip includes three more games in Denver against the Colorado Rockies, then over to San Francisco to face the Giants. After an early slate of interleague games , the Dodgers don’t play another American League team until May 4.
