The Dodgers came out in Game 1 of the National League Championship Series and hit the first punch, going up 1-0 in the series. The Mets responded in Game 2 with a 7-3 win, but that only made Jack Flaherty’s performance in Game 1 that much more important.
The Dodgers were at their best in Game 1, and their right-handed ace and Los Angeles native was the best he’s looked all season.
Flaherty was wheeling and dealing and doing whatever he wanted against the Mets. Flaherty’s mom, Eileen Flaherty, took to Twitter/X and shared a heartfelt message after her son’s incredible performance on the biggest stage.
