It was a do-or-die outing last night between two California-based teams with a storied rivalry between them. Representing Southern California, the defending World Series champions, the Los Angeles Dodgers; repping the North, the San Francisco Giants. Both teams won over 100 games in the regular season, and could each arguably be considered the best of the best in 2021 baseball.
With the series tied 2-2 going into the Thursday night game, and knowing the winner would be facing the Braves in the NLCS, a lot was on the line. One Cali team would be going into the offseason, while the other would be continuing on in hopes of collecting the Commissioner’s trophy.
