Dodgers News: Team Scheduled for 3 National TV Spots in June

The Los Angeles Dodgers are set to begin a huge three game series with hated rivals the San Francisco Giants on Friday night. The Dodgers currently sit four games behind the Giants and can make up some serious ground if they can take some wins back with them to the City of Angels.

Fans of baseball everywhere will be treated to a huge pitching duel in the first game of the series as MVP hopeful Clayton Kershaw takes on Johnny Cueto.

As if this pitching matchup wasn’t enough, Dodgers fans will get to see the 4th major league start of Julio Urias. Urias performed much better in third start against the Colorado Rockies and will be looking to build upon that success against that team from up north.
