The postseason chugs on with two $300M behemoths battling it out for a trip to the World Series. After a huge 9-0 win in game one, the Dodgers fell to the Mets in the second game to even the series. Now the Mets send Luis Severino to the mound at what promises to be a rockin’ Citi Field. Severino has had two uninspiring starts in postseason, one each against the Brewers and Phillies. He gave up three runs in each start.
The Dodgers counter with Walker Buehler, who followed up a bad regular season with an absolute clunker against the Padres. He gave up six runs in five innings. This isn’t exactly a marquee pitching matchup, but I weirdly have faith in Severino. Maybe that’s just my Mets bias creeping in.
