The Los Angeles Dodgers, which won Game 3 of the National League Championship Series (NLCS) against the New York Mets, have preempted the advantage of advancing to the World Series.
The Dodgers played Game 3 of the NLCS against the New York Mets on the 17th (Korea Standard Time) at Citi Field in Flushing, New York. Before the game, the two teams were tied with one win and one loss in the series.
However, the Dodgers led the game 2-0 from the beginning of Game 3, and widened the gap to 4:0 by banking on a home run by Kike Hernandez (33) at the top of the sixth inning. In addition, Shohei Ohtani (30) hit a three-run homer and Max Muncy (34) hit a solo homer in the latter half of the game, giving the Dodgers an 8:0 complete victory over the New York Mets. This gave the Dodgers a 2-1 lead in the series.
ESPN, a U.S. sports channel, reported after the game, "The Dodgers sank the New York Mets with the hot firepower they showed at bat," adding, "In the best-of-seven post-season, the team that won Game 3 like the Dodgers has a 69% chance of winning the series."
The Dodgers, which beat Tampa Bay to win the World Series in 2020, are in a good position to advance to the World Series again because they won Game 3 of the NLCS. This is good news for the Dodgers, who are trying to win the World Series title again in four years.
The Dodgers announced Japanese pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto to start Game 4 of the NLCS at the same venue. Yamamoto, who entered the Major League this year, started only 18 games due to his injury during the regular season. However, he posted seven wins, two losses and an earned run average of 3.00, proving that if he is healthy, he can perform his role.
He was sluggish in the postseason as well, as he allowed five hits and five runs in three innings in his first appearance against the San Diego Padres on Saturday. However, he pitched just two hits and no runs during five innings in his team's mound on Sunday, successfully rebounding. This is why he is expected to take the mound in Game 4 of the NLCS.
The Dodgers predicted Jack Flaherty (29) as the starting pitcher for Game 5. He started against the New York Mets in Game 1 of the NLCS on the 14th, and pitched just two hits and no runs during seven innings to lead his team's victory.
"I think I can catch the NLCS. I have a chance to win the series," 36-year-old Dodgers bullpen pitcher Blake Treinen told the Los Angeles Times after the game on Wednesday. "If we finish the series in New York, we can go back to Los Angeles and take a few days off to prepare for the World Series. That is our ultimate goal. Therefore, we need to focus on winning the fourth game."
As Treinen said, if the Dodgers lead Game 4 and Game 5 in New York to victory, the Dodgers will be able to return home with the National League championship title and prepare for the World Series after a pleasant rest.
Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts (32) said, "Every player has good times and bad times. However, our team members always trust each other regardless of the results. It shows what kind of results that belief produces," adding, "The Dodgers' upward trend begins with infinite belief among teammates." 스포츠토토
