Dodgers Keep Season Alive, Force Game 7 in NLCS

Behind a strong outing from Walker Buehler, the Dodgers have evened the series against the Braves after falling in a 3-1 hole.

For the second straight day, we will have a Game 7.

One day after the Astros evened their series against the Rays, the Dodgers followed suit on Saturday with a 3-1 win over the Braves in Game 6 of the National League Championship Series. The win sets up a Game 7 on Sunday, with the winner advancing to the World Series.

Saturday’s win was spearheaded by Walker Buehler, who stymied Atlanta’s offense through six scoreless innings. Buehler scattered seven hits (all singles) and allowed no walks with six strikeouts.

The Dodgers’ offense did all its damage in the first inning. Corey Seager got the scoring started with a solo home run, his sixth homer of the postseason. Justin Turner followed with a homer two pitches later to push the lead
