8 分钟The Dodgers take on the Mets at Dodger Stadium today for game 6 of the NLCS. A win would send the Dodgers to a World Series against the Yankees. We preview the game, with a focus on the pitching matchup, and the bullpen game the Dodgers are throwing.
That's what Good morning and welcome to Dodger Blue Dream Daily, the quick turnaround format of my documentary made in real time as the baseball season unfolds.
I'm Richard Parks III and It is Sunday, October 20, 2024.
The Yankees beat the Guardians last night and they are advancing on from the ALCs to the world Series.

Something I have wanted my entire life.
But let's not get ahead of ourselves.
We've got a baseball game to play tonight at Dodger Stadium at 5:08.
Very specifically Pacific time.
It's game six of the National League Championship Series, Dodgers versus Mets.
This episode will give you everything you need to know about that game, plus a little bit of my take in 5ish minutes.

I can just taste it.

Dave Roberts described it as an all hands on deck scenario.
The only GU being held back are Walker Bueller, who will start game seven if it gets there, and Yoshinobu Yamamoto because our expensive little baby prince needs his rest.
