As The World Turners

Justin Turner returned to action tonight and thanks to his mighty efforts the Dodgers lost a game to the woeful Florida Marlins, 4-2. It wasn't Turner's fault, of course. Nothing ever is, because he makes basically no mistakes. But the rest of the Dodgers got not a single hit with runners in scoring position. They did, however, give up a run to Florida when Logan Forsythe, playing his "natural position" of 2nd base threw a ball in the dirt. And then JT Chargois, pictured here in his native South



gave up two completely needless runs, sealing the Dodgers' fate. Yasiel Puig and Cody Bellinger hit solo home runs and were immediately benched by Dave Roberts for "lack of hustle."

This is essentially the team that came within one game of winning the World Series. They have now lost eight of nine to the Padres, Marlins, and Reds. I'm guessing Justin Turner wishes he were still on the disabled list.
