As you'd expect with a strong bullpen and a strong bench, the Dodgers do better than their opponents late in the game. But the team's real dominance seems to come in the middle innings.
2004 Dodgers Linescore
Dodgers 65 58 75 86 84 83 62 61 50 12 - 636 Opponents 82 68 72 63 57 57 41 60 40 06 - 546
The Dodgers are 33-43 when their opponent scores first. This strikes me, without doing any research, as a pretty good record. The only question I'd have is whether Dodgers opponents are scoring first too often - 76 times in 136 games.
