"The previous time the Dodgers and Reds met in October saw the Big Red Machine sweep L.A. in three games during the 1995 National League Division Series, outscoring them 22-7. But the Dodgers have had the upper-hand in 2025, winning five of their six games and outscoring the Reds 30-15. Still, as October has shown so often, the regular season doesn't matter anymore once the playoffs begin."
"The Dodgers are expected to start Blake Snell in Game 1 with Yoshinobu Yamamoto taking the ball in Game 2. If it goes to Game 3, the belief is Shohei Ohtani will be on the mound. The Dodgers clinched home field advantage in the Wild Card by way of winning the National League West division, but they finished behind the Milwaukee Brewers and Philadelphia Phillies in the overall standings, which caused them to miss out on the first-round bye."
The Cincinnati Reds and Los Angeles Dodgers meet in a three-game Wild Card Series at Dodger Stadium Sept. 30–Oct. 2. The last postseason meeting occurred in 1995 when the Reds swept the Dodgers in the National League Division Series, outscoring them 22-7. The Dodgers dominated head-to-head in 2025, winning five of six games and outscoring the Reds 30-15. Blake Snell is expected to start Game 1, Yoshinobu Yamamoto Game 2, and Shohei Ohtani would pitch if a Game 3 is necessary. The Dodgers clinched home-field advantage by winning the NL West but finished behind Milwaukee and Philadelphia and therefore missed a first-round bye. Games will air on ESPN networks with Spanish coverage on ESPN Deportes and national radio on ESPN Radio.
