Mets at Dodgers, 5:00PM PT, TV: TBS
“This one’s for all the marbles.” “Win or go home.” “There’s no tomorrow for one of these teams.”
Those are clichés for a reason: they’re all true. Banal, trite, and eye-roll inducing, but true.
The Dodgers ask Zack Greinke to do what he’s done all year: hold the other team to fewer than three runs as he did in all but two starts and score more than that themselves. The Dodgers will have to get those runs off Jacob deGrom, who’s got a 3.66 ERA in three regular season starts against them, which shows he can be reached. In Game One, though, he was nearly unhittable, striking out 13 in seven shutout innings.
Turner is probable to start while Grandal is 50-50.
