Game 2 in this series was the best game thus far in the playoffs that we have seen, as these teams went back and forth over the course of the whole game, and there were some tremendous plays at the end that preserved things for Atlanta. That being said, the Braves really don’t strike us as a team that will be winning a game here in Tinseltown. The Dodgers have the better of these two teams, and they know that they have the ability to take care of things without any issues. LHP Hyun-Jin Ryu was awesome this year at home, and he is going to be getting the baseball on Sunday for Game 3. It’s his first postseason start, but that isn’t an issue, knowing that it is also the first postseason start for RHP Julio Teheran on the other side. Teheran might be getting overlooked just a bit in this series, as he was really a great starter all year long for the Braves. Here’s the bottom line, though: This was a team that had a losing record on the road for the whole season, and this isn’t going to be a pretty spot to try to change any of that on Sunday.
Atlanta Braves @ Los Angeles Dodgers Pick: Los Angeles Dodgers +136
Atlanta Braves @ Los Angeles Dodgers Score Prediction: Dodgers 6 – Braves 2
