New York Mets manager Carlos Mendoza is strategically adjusting the lineup, starting four lefties for Game 5 against the Dodgers while down 3-1 in the NLCS.
Mendoza aims to give Dodgers starter Jack Flaherty "a different look" by replacing Iglesias with left-handed hitter McNeil. Strategy involves spacing lefties and protecting righties.
Mendoza mentioned the importance of adjustments in such a situation, stating, "This is a game of adjustments. We saw him recently, but he also saw (our) hitters."
Flaherty had dominated the Mets' hitters previously but Mendoza believes that facing him again in five days could change their fortune.
