"The Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Philadelphia Phillies, 5-3, on Saturday night to take Game 1 of the NLDS. Superstar Shohei Ohtani struck out nine, Teoscar Hernández launched his third home run in three postseason games to take back the lead, and Roki Sasaki earned his first career save to put the Dodgers up 1-0 in the series. Ahead of the eventual victory, utility star Kiké Hernández (who went 1-for-4 with 2 RBIs on Saturday) discussed how he continues to be so good come October."
"Hernández seems to always find ways to be clutch when the lights shine brightest, and he has kept up his reputation so far this postseason. Finally, a Phillies outfielder unfortunately suffered an injury during his team's defeat. The .277 hitter left the game with a hamstring injury as his absense could potentially be series-altering if he is held out of future games."

Shohei Ohtani struck out nine batters while Teoscar Hernández launched his third postseason home run in as many games to retake the lead. Roki Sasaki earned his first career save, recording a strikeout and touching triple-digits on the radar four times. Utility player Kiké Hernández went 1-for-4 with two RBIs and has delivered clutch October performances throughout the postseason. A Phillies outfielder, a .277 hitter, exited with a hamstring injury that could affect the series. The Dodgers' NLDS roster notes included Clayton Kershaw's return and two relievers left off the roster.
