Kiké was the star, but this was a team victory from the manager to the bullpen.
The big hero last night was Kiké and his improbable three-run home against the fireball Josh Hader. As Ken Gurnick noted last night it was the first time that Kiké had ever homered on an 0 – 2 count and it was the first home run ever given up by Hader on an 0 – …

Tom Koehler the pitcher many hoped would replace the arm of Brandon Morrow had his season flushed when he hurt his right shoulder and will be out a minimum of two months. This will have a trickle down effect on the Dodger bullpen since Koehler was already penciled in as a lock. With Dave Roberts …
Baez in, Joc out

All eyes on Kershaw & Morrow
Clayton Kershaw has started four straight game one NLDS, and while this will be the first time he will start against a division rival in the NLDS everything else should seem familiar. In those previous four starts, the Dodgers have won two games and lost two games. When they have won game one, they have advanced …
