  And it is a little early – way, waaaay too soon, in fact – to crown the Dodgers as the best team ever, or assume that they’ll erase the major-league record of 116 victories in a season.

  LOS ANGELES — Even with a five-run deficit tied behind their back, the Dodgers managed to escape in order to keep their season-opening win streak alive.
