Los Angeles Dodgers vs Atlanta Braves: Storylines

Most experts agree that this year’s World Series champion will come out of this series, as the Dodgers and Braves didn’t only have the best record in the league during the regular season but also had the best career differential (+19) and record (5-0) ahead of their matchup in the postseason.

Now, the Braves handed the Dodgers their first loss of the postseason and cemented themselves as the most exciting team to watch in the playoffs, fueled by Ronald Acuña Jr’s never-ending fire and Freddie Freeman’s timely hitting.

The Dodgers shot themselves in the feet once again in the 9th inning with some questionable calls by Dave Roberts and will now try to avoid falling to a 0-2 hole when southpaw star Clayton Kershaw takes the mound for them.

Kershaw’s struggles in the postseason have been well documented throughout his career and a heavy-hitting team like the Braves are going to test him early, so perhaps we’ll see a high-scoring affair in Game 2.
