It’s been awhile since there was a dramatic walkoff win at Dodger Stadium, but tonight’s was historic, and well worth the wait. Justin Turner hit the first walkoff home run in Dodgers‘ postseason history since Kirk Gibson‘s in Game 1 of the 1988 World Series, 29 years to the day.
Once again, the starting pitcher only went five innings, and the bullpen took over and kept the door shut. The hit by pitch to Anthony Rizzo was the only base runner allowed by this bullpen in eight innings so far in this NLCS.
