scoreless begin of 5+ IP in in winner-take-all postseason sport, Dodgers historical past:

2024 NLDS G5 Yoshinobu Yamamoto
1988 NLCS G7 Orel Hershiser (SHO)
1981 NLDS G5 Jerry Reuss (SHO)
1965 WS G7 Sandy Koufax (SHO)
1955 WS G7 Johnny Podres (SHO)

Alden González @Alden_Gonzalez

Yoshinobu Yamamoto gave the Dodgers 5 scoreless innings with their season on the road. He induced fewer swings and misses (4) than he allowed batted balls of 100-plus mph (6). Evan Phillips will seemingly relieve him. The Padres have gone 20 consecutive innings and not using a run.

Raúl Delgado @RaulDelgadoTV

Yoshinobu Yamamoto has given the Dodgers greater than what they might have imagined, now the offense must create a long way.

Juan Toribio @juanctoribio

There have been a whole lot of considerations with Yoshinobu Yamamoto and the primary inning. He quieted them there.

Clear first inning and the #Dodgers get an opportunity to throw the primary punch within the backside half.

Teoscar Hernández then gave the Dodgers an insurance coverage run with a homer of his personal within the seventh.

Hernández selected to signal a one-year take care of the Dodgers somewhat than a reported two-year provide from the Boston Purple Sox. That alternative seems to be like it’s paying off for each him and the Dodgers.

Teoscar Hernandez is making himself some further $$ this postseason. Dude is on hearth.

Ralph Meraz @r_meraz23

If they do not give Teoscar Hernandez an extension I would be the first one to riot at Andrew’s workplace. #Dodgers #Teoscar #TeoscarHernandez

The Los Angeles bullpen in the meantime closed out the win with a dominant remaining three innings as Evan Phillips, Alex Vesia, Michael Kopech and Blake Treinen mixed for 5 strikeouts, no hits and no walks.

Dodgers bullpen is lights out this postseason, unimaginable

Marcas Grant @MarcasG

Simply phenomenal work by the bullpen through the remaining 3+ video games of this sequence. Simply the MVP of the sequence for the Dodgers.

How becoming that Tatis Jr. made the ultimate out. The Dodgers bullpen was phenomenal.

Regardless of having the Dodgers on the sting of elimination in Sport 4, the Padres’ bats had been largely silent within the elimination loss as solely Luis Arraez and Kyle Higashioka recorded hits. Star proper fielder Fernando Tatís Jr. was left with no hits and a strikeout in 4 at-bats.

The Dodgers at the moment are set to face the New York Mets within the crew’s first NLCS look since 2021, and Ohtani’s first championship sequence ever.

Dodgers Mets gonna be a film

The NLCS is slated to start on Sunday. The winner of the upcoming sequence will face both the New York Yankees, Cleveland Guardians or Detroit Tigers within the 2024 World Sequence.
