The Braves will send rookie right-hander Ian Anderson back to the mound as they look to squeeze out a series victory following two straight losses.
In his Game 2 start, Anderson pitched four scoreless innings for the Braves, who eventually went on to win by a score of 8-7. However, the righty wasn’t necessarily on point – in those four frames, Anderson walked five.
Overall, the 22-year-old’s postseason has fared pretty well, to the tune of 15.2 scoreless innings over three starts.
The Dodgers will counter with Dustin May, who returns after just one full day of rest.
May’s Game 5 outing – in which he lasted just two innings – saw the right-hander give up two runs (one earned) while striking out three. The 23-year-old also made an appearance in Game 1, throwing 1.2 scoreless innings in relief.
