Dodgers Threaten

Chris Taylor doubles and Cody Bellinger walks against Luke Jackson, who has to face AJ Pollock due to the three-batter rule. Pollock represents the tying run, as the Braves lead the Dodgers 4-1 in the top of the seventh inning.

Update: Pollock lines a double just inside the leftfield line and Taylor scores. The Dodgers have men on second and third with no one out, down 4-2.

Update: Tyler Matzek is in to pitch for the Braves against Albert Pujols.

Update: Pujols strikes out swinging on a low, 1-2 pitch. One down.

Update: Steven Souza Jr pinch hits.

Update: Souza strikes out looking on a 1-2 on a strike that is low and near the outside edge but in the zone. Two down.

Update: Mookie Betts falls behind 0-2. He swings at the next pitch and misses, and the Braves get out of the inning. Matzek did a great job of moving the ball around the strike zone as he leaves two runners stranded. At the stretch, the Braves lead the Dodgers 4-2.

Update: Matzek now has 10 K against the Dodgers in five innings in the NLCS this year.
