Overview

  • Pages lined a 3-2 pitch from Robert Suárez into center with the bases loaded to drive in two runs and put the Dodgers ahead in the seventh inning.
  • The rally began with a Teoscar Hernández single and was extended by walks to Josue De Paula and Kyle Tucker that loaded the bases with Tommy Edman as a pinch-runner.
  • Pages entered October with recent postseason struggles and an 0-for-7 start to the month, making the hit a timely personal turnaround that teammates, including Freddie Freeman, publicly praised.
  • Los Angeles used a multi‑pitcher effort to hold Atlanta to three hits, and Max Muncy added a ninth-inning solo homer to extend his franchise postseason home run mark to 19.
  • With the NLDS clinched, the Dodgers advance to the NLCS and will await the winner of the Brewers‑Padres matchup while relying on roster depth and balanced pitching for the next series.
