Atlanta Braves vs. Los Angeles Dodgers Preview

The NL East champion Braves return to the NLCS a year after losing to the eventual world champion Dodgers in a thrilling seven-game series. This year’s Braves are hungry and ready to go off of a 3-1 series victory over the Milwaukee Brewers. Can the trio of Freddy Freeman, Ronald Acuna Jr., and Joc Pederson propel the Braves back to the World Series for the first time since 1999?

The reigning World Series champions entered the playoffs as a Wild Card due to the overwhelming success of the San Francisco Giants, but were able to dispatch their NL West rivals in 5 games during the ALDS. Now, the Dodgers look to win their fourth NL pennant in five years and their second straight World Series title. They certainly have the pitching and batting to do so, as they’re lead by Max Scherzer, who might just be the best pitcher in baseball, and Mookie Betts, who might just be the best hitter in the league, too.
