Talk about a rewrite

On Monday, June 19th I posted the best total base games by any Dodgers against the Mets at Dodger Stadium. At the time I was surprised to find that the Dodgers have never had a double-digit total base game with that criteria.

That Monday night Cody Bellinger tied Gary Sheffield and Jim Lefebvre with the best offensive game against the Mets at Dodger Stadium with his two home runs and single. The exact same way the other two had gotten their nine total bases.

On Tuesday night Corey Seager obliterated what Cody Bellinger did on Monday night.

This is the new total base leaderboard against the Mets at Dodger Stadium

And how does Corey Seager stack up now for the best total base game at Dodger Stadium?

How does best ever catch your fancy?

Tied with Grandal and Garvey anyway.  Just a year ago, Grandal had his great game. Must be something in the water.
