The Dodgers, an MLB-best 95-43, can clinch a postseason berth for the 10th straight season with a victory Sunday or a Milwaukee loss. They are also closing in on their ninth division title in 10 seasons.
"I think we all know what kind of lead we have," Freeman said."But if you start looking at that, and some of the other things, that lead's going to evaporate and you'll get a little bit relaxed. I like the way we've been playing games the last few days. Even yesterday's game was just a good baseball game.
With Freeman leading the way, the Dodgers bounced back from a 5-4, 10-inning loss in the series opener on a wet Friday night. Freeman drove in Turner on three of his hits and finished a triple shy of the cycle. Turner walked with one out in the seventh and was aboard for Freeman's homer to center field, his 19th. Will Smith doubled and scored on Chris Taylor's single.
"He was outstanding," Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said."I'm having a hard time coming up with adjectives to describe him and what he's done for us. Just to get through that first inning, his pitch count got up a little bit but the next six were really clean. He threw the baseball really well."
