Chris Sale gets the start for Atlanta against Los Angeles in NLDS Game 3 on Tuesday, squaring off against Yoshinobu Yamamoto in a pitching duel MLB.com calls the first of its kind in 88 years. The Braves saved Sale specifically for this start, a move CBS Sports said paid off well for Atlanta.
The Dodgers responded by dropping Shohei Ohtani from his usual lineup spot to fifth ahead of the game. Los Angeles enters looking for a way to solve Sale, who has been sharp since Atlanta kept him fresh for this start in the series.
