The Astros sweep the Dodgers in Los Angeles, the Pirates turn good history into bad, the Guardians blew it in the ninth and more from the weekend's MLB action.

In 2024, the Dodgers had one of the best records in baseball against teams with a winning record. After Sunday’s 5-1 loss to the Houston Astros, this year’s team is just a game over .500 — 20-19 — against teams over .500. Those are the only kind of teams the Dodgers will face in the playoffs.

Sheehan allows one run over five innings. Houston pulls away late with three home runs, including back-to-back shots off Tanner Scott from Christian Walker and Yainer Diaz, in a 5-1 loss.
