Dodgers’ Max Muncy Urges Team Focus Amid Postseason Push

Los Angeles, California — As the Los Angeles Dodgers gear up for the postseason, several players are returning from the injured list, including All-Star third baseman Max Muncy. Muncy has emphasized the need for teamwork over individual achievement as the Dodgers approach the final stretch of the season.

In recent statements, Muncy acknowledged the team’s struggles this year but stressed that success depends on players focusing on winning together. “We need to stop worrying about ourselves,” Muncy said. “It’s about putting the team first and understanding that we can only succeed together.”

Despite the roster’s ups and downs, Muncy believes that fostering unity is key to achieving their championship aspirations. “We try to preach having good at-bats, doing things to help the team win,” he explained. “But sometimes it slips through the cracks for some guys.”

With 13 games remaining, Muncy recognizes that personal stats take a backseat to team goals. “At this point, your numbers are your numbers. We’ve got to get back focused on just winning the game,” Muncy stated.

The Dodgers currently sit two games ahead of the San Diego Padres in the NL West. They lost a close game to the Philadelphia Phillies on Tuesday night, which underscored the urgency for the team. Manager Dave Roberts has also highlighted the importance of team cohesion, especially with players returning from injury, such as Tommy Edman and Dalton Rushing.

As the postseason approaches, the pressure mounts, but Muncy’s message is clear: It is essential for the Dodgers to rally together as they aim to reclaim their status as champions.
