The Los Angeles Dodgers have lost back to back games at Atlanta, and still they come into Game 3 as a heavy favorite. The Dodgers are well overrated on the road, as they are just 20-25 so far away from Chavez Ravine. I like the Braves as a home dog with their ace on the mound.
Here are my keys to the game:
1. Pitching - The Dodgers will send Mike Bolsinger to the mound, and he's been rather inconsistent this season. Bolsinger (4-3, 3.04 ERA) allowed one run on two hits over four innings, failing to earn a decision in a 5-3 defeat at Washington in his last outing. He's win-less in seven starts on the road this season. The Braves will counter with Julio Teheran, who allowed a pair of runs on four hits over 4.2 innings in a 4-2 win over the Cubs on Friday.
2. Home Cookin' - Teheran is 5-0 with a 2.18 ERA in nine starts at Turner Field this season, and the Braves have won 10 of their last 14 at home. This Dodgers team ranks dead last in the National League in runs scored in day games.
3. X-Factor - Today's umpire Bill Welke has been kind to the home team, the hosts are 16-5 in Welke's last 21 games behind home plate.
