Corey Knebel's emergence as a reliable arm in the Dodgers' bullpen could come in handy if Max Scherzer runs into problems in Game 3.
Albert Pujols will play first base, making him the oldest player — at 41 years and 268 days — to start a game in Dodgers playoff history, and right-handed hitting Chris Taylor and AJ Pollock will start in the outfield against Giants left-hander Alex Wood, manager Dave Roberts said.
If Scherzer can regain the feel of his slider and locate his fastball, changeup, curve and cutter, the Dodgers would have the advantage in Game 3. “I don’t know the answer,” Roberts said after Game 2. “I wish I knew it in about the third inning [in Game 1]. Logan threw the ball well and we didn’t make any adjustments. It was good to get Gausman up and on the plate, to use the whole field. That mindset paid dividends.”
Urias and Betts both hit elevated splitters for RBI singles in the second, and Trea Turner led off the sixth with a double on a splitter. Will Smith laid off two splitters in the dirt and a slider for a walk. Taylor walked to load the bases, and Bellinger and Pollock smacked two-run doubles.“I thought we gave ourselves a chance,” Roberts said. “We weren’t afraid to get into counts, to grind Gausman, to use the whole field.
Knebel struck out Harrison Bader with a sharp 81-mph curve to end the eighth inning in the wild-card win, and he threw a one-two-three seventh on Saturday, striking out Tommy La Stella with an elevated 97-mph fastball and freezing Alex Dickerson with a 79-mph curve for strike three.
