Los Angeles Dodgers vs Tampa Bay Rays: Storylines
The Los Angeles Dodgers had their backs against the wall after falling 3-1 to the Atlanta Braves in the NLCS. Then, they proved why they were the biggest favorite to win it all this year by rallying with three straight triumphs.
Mookie Betts’ otherwordly defense and Corey Seager’s timely hitting powered the Dodgers past an almost flawless Braves team that looked World Series-bound, but there are still some questions regarding howClayton Kershawwill fare considering his long history of strulgges in the postseason.
Kevin Cash and the Tampa Bay Rays almost let their lead in the ALCS slip, as they also had to go to seven games to finally get past the Houston Astros and get back to the World Series for the second time in franchise history.
The Rays are one of the few teams that have never won a World Series and will try to put an end to that drought led by a team full of hard-working players that always find a way to get the job done. That, plus their elite pitching corps, obviously.
