"The Los Angeles Dodgers clinched the National League West title for a 12th time in the past 13 seasons, which was accompanied by a muted on-field celebration before more raucous festivities in the visiting clubhouse at Chase Field. After finishing off an 8-0 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks, players gathered on the field and donned their divisional champions t-shirt after exchanging high-fives and some hugs."
"Once in the clubhouse, manager Dave Roberts gave a speech to congratulate his players and remind them of the road that still remains ahead. The Dodgers are looking to become MLB's first repeat World Series champion since the New York Yankees from 1998-2000. Clayton Kershaw and Shohei Ohtani were often the subject of being sprayed with champagne and beer. Ohtani at one point was serenaded to "MVP" chants while being splashed."
The Los Angeles Dodgers clinched the National League West title for the 12th time in 13 seasons. Players gathered on the field, donned divisional champions t-shirts, exchanged high-fives and posed for a team photo as fans cheered behind the dugout. The clubhouse celebration was louder, with manager Dave Roberts congratulating the team and reminding them of the remaining road. Clayton Kershaw and Shohei Ohtani were sprayed with champagne and beer, and Ohtani received "MVP" chants. Several players said the title had added meaning because it is Kershaw's 18th and final Dodgers season. Players made a Slip 'N Slide and trainers slid head-first down the aisle. The division clinch guarantees the Dodgers will host Wild Card Series games.
