It may seem like a long time ago, but just nine days ago the Los Angeles Dodgers were struggling in the NLDS, trailing the San Diego Padres 2-1 in the best-of-five series, with Fernando Tatis Jr. bashing home runs left and right. The Dodgers would find their rhythm, however, and it actually started with Los Angeles’ pitching in that Game 3 loss. The Dodgers did not allow a run after the second inning of this game – a streak that continued through the remainder of this series and into the NLCS. Over the last five games, Dodgers pitchers have posted four shutouts, including both NLCS victories.
The Mets will need to get back to the offense they managed in that 7-3 Game 2 victory to have a chance at tying this series, as the Dodgers’ hot offense is averaging 5.3 runs per game during of this playoffs, with 20 points scored so far in this game. series.
The Mets will start Jose Quintana, who has yet to allow a run in 11 innings in the postseason this year, and the Dodgers will counter with Yoshinobu Yamamoto, who pitched 5.0 shutout innings in his last start, a win of Los Angeles vs. San Diego in the NLDS.
