Explosive Offenses Set to Ignite Dodgers-Mets Showdown in Run-Scoring Frenzy
Before you respond to me on Twitter or X or in your head, I know that it isn’t quite Memorial Day yet. But, I don’t say this with any hyperbole – this could be another National League Championship Series preview. It is the one we got last year, and that one was probably better than the World Series as the matchup went seven games. The Dodgers are taking on the Mets today and I want all of the games to be as good as these could potentially be.
The Dodgers are currently 31-19, but they are just 12-11 away from Dodger Stadium. They had the last laugh last year as they beat the Mets en route to winning the World Series. There really doesn’t need to be an introduction to this team, they are too good, have bottomless pockets, and get virtually everything that they want. Does that mean they will win a World Series? Not necessarily. Anything can happen and they’ve already shown their pitching isn’t exactly reliable. Injuries are always the great equalizer. One pitcher that has come back to the team is the future Hall of Famer, Clayton Kershaw, who takes the mound today. Kershaw has just one start for the year, and he allowed five runs in four innings of work. The Mets don’t have a great history against Kershaw with a .169 batting average.
