The World Series favorite Los Angeles Dodgers roared through the 2022 regular season, winning a franchise-record 111 games. When the division rival San Diego Padres acquired superstar Juan Soto at the trade deadline, Padres owner Peter Seidler called the Dodgers “the dragon up the freeway that we’re trying to slay.” San Diego took game 3 of the NLDS Friday 2-1, and now a win at home today would indeed slay LA. The Dodgers will send Tyler Anderson to the mound against the Padres’ Joe Musgrove. Game 4 starts today at 6:37 p.m. PT (9:37 p.m. ET) on FS1.
