The set-up: Down 0-2 and with their backs against the proverbial wall, I look for the Dodgers to find a way to get the job done in Game 3 and with the shift in venue to friendly confines. The visitors go with Rick Porcello, while the home side goes with Walker Buehler.

The pitchers: Porcello makes his third start of the playoffs, last pitching in Game 4 against the Astros, given yup four runs over four innings.

Buehler has allowed ten runs over 16 innings in three playoff appearances this year. Buehler though was 8-5 with a 2.62 ERA and 0.96 WHIP over 137.1 frames of work this season and I think he'll settle down at Chavez Ravine.

The pick: Take it for what you will as well, but the Dodgers are 7-2 in their last nine night home games in which they've lost two or more games in a row previous. It's do or die, now or never. Lay the price.
