The Los Angeles Dodgers will play the New York Mets on Tuesday night in their NL Division Series, and the Mets will be trying to close this MLB Playoffs 2015 series out with a victory today in Game 4. The game has a scheduled start time of 8 p.m. ET and takes place from Citi Field in Flushing, New York. The game can be watched on TV on the TBS network or online through live stream via the link below.
Monday saw the Mets go 2-1 up in the series with a spectacular 13-7 victory at Citi Field, and now the Mets will be looking to end this series and progress to the next round of the Playoffs. However, the Dodgers will be fighting for the postseason lives and will want to win to send this NLDS to a winner takes all Game 5.
Monday's game had an amazing atmosphere at Citi Field with a sellout 44,276 in attendance, which was a record crowd for a Mets game in the stadium's history. The same is expected for tonight's game and with the crowd as almost an extra man for the Mets, they could be inspired to progress to the NL Championship Series.
However, things will not be easy as Clayton Kershaw takes to the mound for the Dodgers. Los Angeles' star pitcher is being sent out with the Dodgers knowing that nothing less than a win will do for them tonight. Kershaw of course put on an 11 strikeout performance for the Dodgers in Game 1, and he is the man they turn to when they face must-win situations.
Such is the circumstances for Los Angeles that they are having to send Kershaw out on only three days rest, but for LA manager Don Mattingly it was a no-brainer to send his star man out for today's game.
Mattingly said, "Kershaw. Do you have to explain that one? It was in the back of my mind, for sure, that I might have a shot to pitch," Kershaw said. "It's a good feeling to know your manager wants you out there. Makes you want to prove him right."
