The Los Angeles Dodgers are kicking off a crucial three-game series with the Philadelphia Phillies on Monday night at Dodger Stadium.
The Dodgers are currently 4.5 games behind the Phillies for the No. 2 seed in the National League. If the Dodgers want any chance of catching Philadelphia to earn the first-round bye, they likely have to sweep Philadelphia this week.

Why is Tommy out? He needs more reps now going into October.
He’s a switch hitter so why not let him keep getting his swing back, Doc ?
Hope Robinson can bring some offense to the bottom of the lineup! Let’s go dodgers!!
I think Tommy Edman is a great asset to the Dodgers . Tommy is an exceptional player and can help the Dodgers win in my opinion, so is Will Smith I don’t understand why there not using there most valuable players instead of these rookies
