Roberts has now led the Dodgers to three lengthy post-season runs in a row, but that might be forgotten in the aftermath of a championship defeat that had the manager's fingerprints all over it. The 46-year-old Roberts was called out by President Donald Trump, booed by the Dodgers Stadium crowd, and ripped by the public for World Series strategy that backfired. "But I do know that there's a lot of thought in knowing your players and things that people aren't always privy to, decisions that I make." The questionable decisions included inserting reliever Alex Wood into a pivotal Game One that led to a back-breaking, three-run home run that lifted Boston. In Game Two, Roberts pulled starter Ryu Hyun-jin in favor of Ryan Madison who allowed a game-winning single.
