Three-time Cy Young winner Max Scherzer, who has pitched 432 games in his career, had never recorded a save until NLDS Game 5 against the Giants.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said it was an organizational decision to start Corey Knebel in Game 5, instead of Julio Urias against the Giants.

For the 24th time this season, the Dodgers and Giants will square off — but this one in a winner-take-all NLDS showdown in Game 5 at Oracle Park.

The wind was so strong at Dodger Stadium that it caused Max Scherzer to stumble off the mound before throwing his second pitch of the game.

Evan Longoria launched a solo home run in the fifth inning to lead the Giants over the Dodgers in Game 3 and take a 2-1 series lead.

The Dodgers offense wakes up in Game 2 of the NLDS with a 9-2 win over the Giants to even the NLDS one-game apiece.

San Francisco Giants pitcher Logan Webb, who ended the Los Angeles Dodgers’ reign as NL West champions, pitched a gem against them in Game 1 of NLDS.
