LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers are going to have their worst record in at least seven years, but they’ve once again met one of their foundational goals. The Dodgers are in the playoffs for a 13th year in a row, tied for the second-longest streak in major league history.

Every other National League team not currently in playoff position has at least 76 losses.
