The Dodgers beat the Padres, 5-3, in Game 1 of the National League Division Series behind just enough early offense and some outstanding relief pitching.
Julio Urias pitched five innings for the victory, allowing four hits and three runs. Four relievers combined for four shutout innings, with Chris Martin locking things down in the ninth for the save.
The Los Angeles bats went cold after the third inning, but they had done plenty of damage before that to get the job done. L.A. didn’t have a baserunner after the fourth.
The Dodgers lead the best-of-five series, 1-0.
