LOS ANGELES (CBSNewYork/AP) — One ace helped the Los Angeles Dodgers stave off elimination against the New York Mets.
Now their other one gets a chance to extend the playoffs in a winner-take-all Game 5.
Coming off Clayton Kershaw’s stellar outing that tied the NL Division Series 2-2, Zack Greinke takes the mound on Thursday night against Jacob deGrom of the Mets.
DeGrom, the Game 1 winner over Kershaw, will pitch on an extra day of rest, while Game 2 winner Greinke will be going on regular rest.
The Dodgers are trying to advance to the NL Championship Series for the first time in two years.
