Dodgers Beat Padres in Wild NLDS Game 1 as Shohei Ohtani Homers, Bullpen Dominates

The Los Angeles Dodgers beat the San Diego Padres, 7-5, to take a 1-0 lead in the National League Division Series.

The Dodgers snapped a six-game postseason losing streak, and will look to take a 2-0 lead on Sunday night.

The Padres got things going early in the first inning with a three-run first against Yoshinobu Yamamoto, capped off by a two-run home run by Manny Machado.

The 3-0 lead gave Dodger fans some instant PTSD from last year’s NLDS against the Arizona Diamondbacks.

After the Dodgers offense left two runners on the bases in the bottom of the first, Yamamoto was able to settle down and get a 1-2-3 second inning.
