The Los Angeles Dodgers have some significant issues as they prepare for Game 4 of the World Series Saturday night at Minute Maid Park in Houston.
After asserting themselves with a series-opening win over the Houston Astros, they have dropped the next two games and are in some difficulty.
The Dodgers have to find a way to record a win in Game 4 or 5 if they are going to send the World Series back to Los Angeles, and they are sending left-hander Alex Wood to the mound to get the job done. The Astros, who have rediscovered their collective hitting stroke, will counter with Charlie Morton.
