Starting Pitchers and Early Action
Shawn Mania was pitching for the Mets, while Michael Kopech was lined up to throw for the Dodgers in a relief effort. It was his first-ever playoff start. Francisco Lindor reached on four-pitch walk to open the game. Lindor moved over to second base on wild pitch by Kopech. Mark Vientos singled to the infield, scoring Lindor and giving the Mets an early 1-0 lead over the Dodgers.

Dodgers Team Response
The Dodgers batted in the bottom of the fifth inning, and it started with a base hit by Shohei Ohtani. Then Kopech struck. Next was a long single to center for Teoscar Hernandez that set runners on the corners. The next man in, Tommy Edman, drove in two runs with a two-run double as this reversed the course of the game from 1-2 in favor of the Dodgers.
Momentum Swing
In the third inning, the Dodgers increase their lead again. Will Smith hits a two-run homer, and in a split second, the score became 6-1. As they scored four runs in the inning, everyone could see how strong this offense was. The folks in Dodger Stadium erupted in exciting cheers as the Dodgers took complete control of the game.
