Against their top division rivals, the Dodgers found their intensity and urgency that had been missing as they recaptured the lead in the NL West

The Dodgers, leaning on contributions from those who had been struggling, including the bullpen, completed a three-game sweep of the rival Padres on Sunday to regain control of the NL West.
