Blake Snell, left-handed pitcher for the Los Angeles Dodgers, will face the San Diego Padres, his former team, in their rivalry series. Snell played for the Padres from 2021 to 2023 and won a Cy Young award in his last season there. Manager Dave Roberts emphasized the need for the Dodgers to match the Padres' intensity, as they are very focused on beating them. Following a slow start, the Dodgers' lineup showed strength in a recent game, led by Clayton Kershaw's six strong innings, resulting in a 3-2 victory that restored their lead in the NL West.
When I was there, we always wanted to beat the Dodgers, because that's the team you gotta go through to get to the World Series.
I do think it's one of those things where they're very hyper-focused on us. But I guess it's a compliment.
The Dodgers put together a strong performance with Clayton Kershaw setting the tone for LA with six dazzling innings.
It was the Dodgers' best performance in recent days, and proved LA is still in it to win it.
