Rounding
3rd

Two titles down. One historic October away. The Dodgers are chasing a third consecutive World Series championship while surviving the pressure, mileage, injuries and inevitable summer turbulence of a dynasty.

Visual description: A real major-league baserunner drives through the basepath while a third-base diamond marker, dust and baseballs move with the page. The motion pauses for readers who request reduced motion.

Three-season ledger

Every mile. Every base. Every out.

The 2024 championship season is complete, the 2025 repeat is complete, and 2026 refreshes after each official Dodgers final.

Official MLB data last verified through Sept. 15, 2026. The tracker checks for a new final whenever the page opens.

Travel methodology: a full three-year mileage total requires game-by-game city routing, including postseason travel. This feature reserves a live route module for that verified calculation rather than presenting an estimate as fact.

Baseball by the strange numbers

What three seasons look like when you stop counting only wins.

The ledger combines the completed 2024 and 2025 regular seasons with the 151-game 2026 snapshot through Sept. 15, 2026. Derived figures are labeled as Ewing Journal calculations.

475regular-season games tracked
7,016total bases
1,522extra-base hits
4,293strikeouts by Dodgers pitchers; 2026 pitching snapshot through 151 games
119.6 miof 90-foot base advancement represented by those total bases

≈34.2K–39.9Kbaseballs potentially prepared for 475 regular-season games using a 6–7 dozen-per-game clubhouse benchmark
4,100hits across the ledger
2,416runs scored across the ledger

Calculation notes: 119.6 miles converts 7,016 total bases × 90 feet. The 45.3-mile figure converts 665 home runs × a 360-foot trip around four 90-foot basepaths; it is not estimated batted-ball flight distance. The baseball-use range applies the 6–7 dozen-per-game clubhouse benchmark to 475 regular-season games and remains an illustrative estimate, not a Dodgers inventory count.

2026 outlook

A pace line, not a promise.

The Dodgers’ current 92–59 rate projects a 99-win regular season. October is modeled separately because postseason length depends on series results.

Regular-season pace99–63804 runs · 202 HR
Division Series exit4 gamesAbout +20 runs · +5 HR
NLCS run10 gamesAbout +50 runs · +12 HR
World Series run17 gamesAbout +84 runs · +21 HR

Ewing Journal projections use the same 151-game snapshot: the regular-season pace is a straight-line extrapolation; postseason scenarios apply the current per-game scoring and home-run rates. They are analytical ranges, not MLB results or betting forecasts.

This edition follows Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts, Freddie Freeman, Max Muncy, Teoscar Hernández and Yoshinobu Yamamoto. It is not a permanent ranking of the roster.

Ohtani’s pitching season is over; the hitter return is the next watch.

Ohtani is on the 15-day injured list with left-knee and right-biceps injuries. MLB reported Sept. 15 that he is shut down from pitching for the rest of 2026 and is progressing toward a return as a hitter. Injury status manually verified Sept. 15, 2026; his official season lines remain below.

Sources & calculation notes

What is measured, and what is estimated.

  • The three-season team ledger uses MLB 2024 team statistics, MLB 2025 team statistics and the Dodgers 2026 team page. Completed seasons remain fixed; the 2026 inputs and all dependent calculations refresh from the same official snapshot.
  • The featured-player season and rolling 15-game lines are checked against official MLB tables for Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts, Freddie Freeman, Max Muncy, Teoscar Hernández and Yoshinobu Yamamoto. Dodgers-career totals for Ohtani are Ewing Journal sums of the official season rows and are labeled as calculations.
  • Ohtani’s injured-list status, planned hitter return and pitching shutdown were manually checked Sept. 15 against MLB’s injury-rehab report and Dodgers status report. Injury and roster-status language is not inferred from the statistics feed.
  • Records, recent finals and the next game refresh from MLB’s official Dodgers schedule. A score is labeled Final only after MLB reports that status. Editorial analysis and highlight selections remain human-reviewed.
  • Postseason records are complete: 11–5 in 2024 and 13–4 in 2025, both World Series championship runs.
  • Baseball-use estimate: MLB clubhouse reporting describing roughly 6–7 dozen game-ready baseballs per game. This is a league clubhouse benchmark, not a Dodgers-specific inventory record.
