Max Muncy discussed the Los Angeles Dodgers' two-game winning streak during a press conference on August 11, 2026, saying "the results speak for themselves."
Muncy said the club has emphasized staying focused on the present rather than letting bad days carry over. "Trying to get everyone back focused on what's happening today and not carrying each day over to the next one," he said. He added that the difficulty in baseball lies in managing emotional swings, noting "the hard thing with baseball is not letting the highs get too high and the lows get too low."
Muncy acknowledged his own recent struggles stemmed from mechanical issues and illness. He explained that he was "mechanically a little off last week and my body wasn't feeling great," and mentioned he was "a little sick after that road trip."
Muncy praised Blake Snell's dominant outing on the mound. When asked how tough it was to watch Snell perform at a high level, Muncy responded, "Yeah, that was great." He stated he hopes to have Snell performing well for an extended stretch, saying "hopefully we have him for the next 2 or 3 months for the long run."
Muncy said maintaining momentum comes down to daily consistency. "You just have to show up each day and find a way to have a clean slate and keep doing your routine," he explained. He added that difficult stretches are simply part of a long season, noting that the team must "fight through those things sometimes."
