Dodgers News: Cody Bellinger Abandoning ‘Elbow High-Five’ Celebration

With their backs against the wall, the Los Angeles Dodgers overcame a 3-1 deficit in the National League Championship Series to eliminate the Atlanta Braves and advance to their third World Series in the past four seasons.

The win-or-go-home Game 7 saw the Braves jump out to an early 2-0 lead, but the Dodgers eventually evened things up via Will Smith’s two-run single in the third.

With the score knotted at 3-3 in the seventh inning, Cody Bellinger provided the decisive blow, sending a 2-2 pitch from Chris Martin into the right-field seats for a solo home run.
