It's Game 3 of the NLCS between the Dodgers and Mets. This one heads to New York.
There is a consensus among all the top handicappers at the G911 Sports Hub that the Mets will take Game 3.
In fact, not a one is backing LA here.
Game Line: Dodgers -111, Mets -109, Over/Under 7.5.
BOTTOM LINE: The series is tied 1-1.
PITCHING PROBABLES: Dodgers: Walker Buehler (1-6, 5.38 ERA, 1.55 WHIP, 64 strikeouts); Mets: Luis Severino (11-7, 3.91 ERA, 1.24 WHIP, 161 strikeouts)
New York Mets career statistics vs. Buehler are .246. He's allowed 18 RBIs and 7 home runs versus the Mets in 80 at bats.
Pete Alonso has four homers against him in 14 tries. He has 8 RBIs in those at bats as well.
Buehler allowed six runs in five innings and took the loss against the Padres on Tuesday.
While that 1-6, 5.38 ERA may look bad, that happened as part of the lowly White Sox. But bad is bad! It's like putting lipstick on a pig.
Dodgers career statistics vs Severino are .236 in 98 at bats. Severino has permitted 11 RBIs over that span to go along with just four home runs scored by four different hitters.
Severino gave up three runs in six innings in a no-decision against the Phillies on Sunday in game 2 of the NLDS.
