The Dodgers won 106 games this season and still had to settle for the NL wild-card game. They'll face the Cardinals, who won 16 fewer games than Los Angeles. In this win-or-go-home game, though, that difference matters only in determining home-field advantage.
As we did in last night's AL wild-card game, Emma Baccellieri and I will be hanging out in this live blog all night, providing updates, analysis and banter on all things happening in tonight's lone playoff game. Let's get started.
All times are in EST.
MM (8:10 p.m.) - As Max Scherzer delivers his first pitch, I'll give my prediction: Cardinals 4, Dodgers 3.
