Dodgers vs Padres: Lineups, Pregame Matchups, How to Watch and More for October 12

A close yet decisive game one win against the Padres give the Dodgers the 1-0 lead in the best of five series. The Dodgers will look to keep the momentum going into game two but now face a tall task at hand.

The Dodgers showed their bullpen rotation and allowed Chris Martin to man the final inning. Martin prevailed for his first career save, but who will serve as the closer today for the Dodgers?

While the question remains, baseball fans will get to witness a showdown of pitchers as the three-time Cy Young Award winner and nine time All-Star Clayton Kershaw draws the start against the five time All-Star and former Dodgers pitcher Yu Darvish.
