The opening statement came two batters into the game, Mookie Betts hitting a ball to Chula Vista, the stunned stadium enveloping him in the sweetest of silence.
Buckle up. Batten down. The fifth and final game in this brawl will take place Friday night at Chavez Ravine, the Dodgers creating the drama with a desperation 8-0 victory at Petco Park on Wednesday night.
See ... you ... Fri-day! chanted a resilient band of Dodgers fans at Petco and, indeed, it should be something to see.
This is Dodger Stadium versus Machado, Shohei versus Tatis, grinders versus showboaters, the real freeway series.
