The Los Angeles Dodgers set the franchise for wins with their 106th victory of the season. The Dodgers were led by one of the best starting rotations in Baseball and a dangerous starting lineup led by Cody Bellinger. The Dodgers 106th win of the season came in a 9-0 victory over the San Francisco Giants.

Additionally, Hyun-Jin Ryu was given another Topps Now card over the weekend. He pitched seven scoreless innings and drove in the first run of the game in the fifth inning to lead the Dodgers over the Giants, 2-0. Below is what's written on the reverse:
Hyun-Jin Ryu threw seven scoreless innings to power the Dodgers to their 105th win of the season, tying the franchise single-season record. With the dominant outing, Ryu will finish the 2019 regular season with an ERA of 2.32, good enough to lock in the National League ERA title.
