Stafford was high school teammates with Dodgers pitcher Clayton Kershaw. A television reporter asked Stafford if he would tell Kershaw he wanted them to lose Wednesday so they could win the title in Los Angeles.
“The banning to tonight’s game was kind of expected, but the fact my little brother and his friends can’t use our season tickets tonight has really pissed me off,” he said in a text message to NBC News. “It’s not like they can go to the next game.”

But he found an effective curveball against the New York Mets in the National League Championship Series and finally got his lively fastball back on Monday night. The Dodgers are now one win away from their first championship in four years and their first full-season title since 1988. At the most critical juncture, starting pitching has gone from the Dodgers’ biggest uncertainty to one of their greatest strengths. And their biggest concern, the overall health of first baseman and No. 3 hitter Freddie Freeman, doesn’t seem to be one at all anymore. — Alden Gonzalez
NEW YORK – They crammed in crowded 4 and D trains, packed the Bronx’s sports bars and streamed through the Yankee Stadium gates, ready to lend their voices to the comeback cause. But it took all of three batters for those pinstripe-clad fans to be quieted, all of three batters for the seemingly unstoppable Dodgers to assert themselves in one of the most intimidating road environments in sports.
9:31 p.m. — The Dodgers’ offense is alive once again. Leiter Jr. remains in the game for New York, and Lux leads off the top of the fourth with a walk. Kike Hernandez follows with a single into right field, putting runners on the corners.
10:11 p.m. — The Yankees get a strikeout then throw out Hernandez on the basepaths to end the top of the sixth. Buehler’s night is over, so they’ll face Brusdar Graterol out of the Dodgers’ bullpen in the bottom half of the inning.
After a rocky regular season in which he struggled to miss bats and exhibited shaky command coming off a second Tommy John surgery, he has again found another level in October and earned his reputation as a big-game pitcher. — Kavner
Freeman’s homer was the first walk-off grand slam in World Series history as well as the third Series walk-off homer of any kind for a team that was trailing, following Joe Carter’s World Series-winning home run for the Toronto Blue Jays in 1993 and Kirk Gibson’s Game 1-winning home run for the Dodgers in 1988. In particular, Freeman’s home run was widely compared to Gibson’s off the Athletics’ Dennis Eckersley, as both players were playing through injuries at the time and the Dodgers were down by a run and down to their last out in Game 1 of the World Series. Fox broadcaster Joe Davis’ call of “…she is gone!” echoed that of legendary Dodgers and then-NBC broadcaster Vin Scully for the Gibson homer, and Davis also added, “Gibby, meet Freddie!” Both Gibson’s and Freeman’s home runs were to right field at Dodger Stadium in almost the same spot and both came at 8:37 PM Pacific Time. Game 1 has been widely referred to as one of the greatest World Series games of all time.

So the pressure’s on the boys from the Bronx. And they’ll send Carlos Rodón to the bump hoping/expecting that he’ll build on the adjustments he’s made in this postseason to not let the excitement get the best of him.
The Phillies, at this moment, are the scariest thing in sports: A talented but flawed club that doesn’t realize it should be golfing by now. These Phillies think they can win in any situation at any time. And they have enough talent to do it.
Because the Dodgers had a better regular season record than the Yankees, Games 1, 2 and possibly 6 and 7 will be at Dodger Stadium, while Games 3 and a potential Games 4 and 5 will be at Yankee Stadium.
Let’s see how efficient Kelly is. Remember, he was pulled after five innings when he was dealing against the Phillies in Game 6. He had thrown 90 pitches at the time and it was the third time through the order. Plus, it was the second time the Phillies were seeing him in less than a week. He’s at 43 pitches right now and since the Rangers are unfamiliar with him, surely Torey Lovullo will let him go deeper than five. Unless he has a rough inning here.
Who are the starting pitchers?Braves: Fried produced an MLB-best 1.74 ERA after the All-Star break and allowed just two runs through his first 12 innings of this postseason. The left-hander surrendered two homers and allowed five runs over 4 2/3 innings in Game 5 of the NLCS against the Dodgers. It appeared he was rushing his delivery and missing his spots like he did during the first few weeks of the regular season.
