Shohei Ohtani's blast helps Dodgers take 2-1 NLCS lead over Mets: Takeaways
Briefly

"Ohtani, who entered the game 0-for-19 with no runners on base, extended his bases-empty drought by going hitless. With two on in the eighth inning, Ohtani hit a towering home run just inside the right-field foul pole for his second homer of the postseason."
"Kike Hernandez sparked the f-bomb-filled mantra that the Dodgers said fueled them to a comeback in the NLDS against the Padres, and it was Hernandez whose home run in Game 5 of that series opened up a Dodgers advantage they wouldn't surrender."
"The Dodgers were clinging to a two-run lead, with a thorny section of the Mets lineup due up. After Tommy Edman lined a two-out single to right and advanced on a balk, Hernandez took advantage of a mistake."
"New York had its share of opportunities early against Buehler. The second inning, in particular, loomed large with missed chances that ultimately contributed to their shutout loss."
