The Los Angeles Dodgers open postseason play Friday night at Dodger Stadium against the Arizona Diamondbacks in Game 1 of the National League Division Series. Los Angeles won a fifth consecutive NL West title and finished with the best record in the Majors, while Arizona advanced via the Wild Card Game.
The playoff meeting between the two teams is the first all-time. The Diamondbacks won 11 of the 19 head-to-head matchups this season but players on both sides have downplayed regular-season results.
First pitch of Game 1 is set for 7:31 p.m. PT, and all auto and stadium gates will open at 4:30 p.
