Dodgers Dugout: A tough lesson for Walker Buehler

Hi, and welcome to another edition of Dodgers Dugout. My name is Houston Mitchell, and there is not a lot of turnaround time between Games 3 and 4.

In all the talk about how great Walker Buehler pitched down the stretch for the Dodgers, it was easy to forget that he is just 24, with barely a full season in the majors under his belt. And he looked young and inexperienced in his very first postseason appearance, walking the opposing pitcher with the bases loaded and grooving a pitch that Ronald Acuna Jr. hit for a grand slam. But, after that, he settled down and retired the next 10 batters, allowing the Dodgers to rally and tie the score.

That experience will serve him well in future postseason…
