Los Angeles Dodgers

The Los Angeles Dodgers took out the toughest opponent in the majors and they punched their ticket to the NLDS. The Dodgers won three of their five games against the Giants including their last 2-1 victory. The Dodgers are all set to turn in Max Scherzer as their starting pitcher in this game. The three-time Cy Young Award winner held a solid 15-4 regular-season record with an ERA of 2.46. Scherzer saved the Dodgers in their last game against the Giants and has given up just two runs in 12 plus innings.
