I love the whole concept of Game Seven unless my team is in it.

Dodgers at Brewers, 5:09 PM PDT, TV: FS1

The Dodgers ask RHP Walker Buehler and the entire pitching staff to save their World Series hopes for them. Buehler had a great outing in the tiebreaker game against the Rockies but has struggled in his NLDS and NLCS appearances thus far, giving up nine runs in 12 innings of work in those two series. He’ll face RHP Jhoulys Chacín, who’s thrown 10 1/3 scoreless innings in his NLDS and NLCS appearances.

Four keys to the game, according to MLB correspondents.

Today in Dodgers’ history:

• 1988 The Dodgers become World Champions when Orel Hershiser limits the opposition to four singles in Game 5 of the World Series and beats the A’s, 5-1. The right-hander, who also won Game 2, is named the Most Valuable Player of the Fall Classic.
• 1994 Receiving all 28 first place votes, Raul Mondesi (.306, 16, 56) is named the National League’s Rookie of the Year. The Los Angeles rightfielder, who easily outdistanced Astros’ hurler John Hudek and Braves’ outfielder Ryan Klesko, is the third consecutive Dodger to win the award.
• 2010 Ted Lilly signs a three-year, $33 million deal to remain with the Dodgers. The 34 year-old southpaw, obtained from the Cubs in early August, compiled a 7-4 record with a 3.52 ERA in 12 starts for LA, including victories in the first five starts for his new team.

Today in Brewers’ history:

• 1982 On his 29th birthday, Keith Hernandez hits a game-tying two-run single off Bob McClure in Game 7 of the Fall Classic, in the Redbirds’ eventual 6-3 victory over the Brewers at Busch Stadium. The batter and pitcher, who lived in homes 100 feet from one another growing up in Pacifica, California, were teammates in Little League and Terra Nova High School baseball team.
• 1982 The Brewers, playing in their first World Series, are unable to hold on to a 3-1 lead in Game 7 when the Cardinals beat Milwaukee, 6-3 with the help of Hernandez’s sixth-inning single. It’s the Redbirds’ first world championship since 1967.
• 2009 The Brewers hire Rick Peterson as their pitching coach to improve the club’s woeful starting pitching, which posted a 5.37 ERA last season. The 54 year-old pitching guru, known for his focus on motion analysis, is reunited with bench coach Willie Randolph and skipper Ken Macha, who were his former managers with the Mets and the A’s, teams he toiled for in a similar role.
