LOS ANGELES — The Los Angeles Dodgers have invited history to come to them, assembling an overwhelming collection of talent and reinforcing the reigning World Series champions with even more cash in pursuit of something baseball has not seen in 25 years: a repeat winner.

The Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Atlanta Braves by a 3-1 final on Tuesday night (box score), improving their record to 7-0 in the process. The Dodgers have now matched the best start to a season by a defending World Series champion in Major League Baseball history,

Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts, and the Los Angeles Dodgers started the 2025 MLB season with seven straight wins, but they need to do double that number to set the record for the longest winning streak to start a season.

With Dustin May on the mound for the first time in more than 22 months, the Dodgers came from behind to beat the Braves 3-1 on Tuesday night and improve to 7-0, tying the 1933 Yankees for the best start to a season by a reigning World Series champion.
