Here’s how you can watch Mets-Dodgers Game 5

Here are five fantastic reasons why the New York Mets will come away with a Game 5 victory in the NLDS against the Los Angeles Dodgers. While the Mets seem like more of a team of fate (after all, they weren’t supposed to be anywhere near this good when the season started) and the Dodgers’ payroll exceeds that of a small nation, they’ll play game five with a clean slate. So will the NLCS (National League Championship Series) be a Dodgers vs Cubs, or Mets vs Cubs, battle?

Tough task for the Mets?

The last three seasons, Kershaw has notched ERAs lower than 2.50.

But certainly not impossible to do.

Matz grew up a Mets fan on Long Island, about 50 miles from Citi Field, and his family attended the game. And there’s nothing better than an elimination game. The best-of-five series is tied, 2-2.

The Blue Jays won a wild Game 5 against the Rangers.

Dodgers manager Don Mattingly had Yasmani Grandal penciled in to start behind the plate, but he has had an injured shoulder, so depending how it responds to treatment will determine if Grandal or A.J. Ellis gets the start.

Get into the Dodgers bullpen. Jacob deGrom, the Mets starter today, threw seven shutout innings and struck out 13 Dodgers in Game 1.

“Hatch came in and got two big outs for us”, Mattingly said. But other than those two, there are concerns with everyone else.

Thanks to Kershaw the Dodgers escape with a 3-1 win and opportunity to play in Game 5 and advance. Aside from the slugfest in Game 3 (20 total runs scored), these two teams have combined for a total of 15 runs in the other three games, and it should be even less than that because of the Chase Utley takeout slide controversy.

As far as the Mets bullpen, Tyler Clippard and Addison Reed were shaky in Game 1 and 2 respectively. So maybe that can boost their confidence.

The OVER is 18-7-2 in the last 27 meetings and 25-7 in the Mets past 32 road games. 470 Pythagorean record (baseball nerd talk for how many games your team should have won, according to a somewhat wonky formula).

Turner is batting. 467 in the series, with a 1.233 OPS. But if not for Matt Harvey’s much-discussed innings limit – put in place to protect his surgically repaired arm – it’s possible deGrom wouldn’t have gotten the top spot in the Mets’ rotation during these playoffs.
