GAME PREVIEW
Dodgers-Padres rivalry on high entering NLDSThey might both hail from sunny Southern California, yet there is a bit of a dark side to the San Diego Padres-Los Angeles Dodgers matchup that will take center stage starting Tuesday in the National League Division Series at Arlington, Texas.The teams with the two best records in the National League played 10 games against each other and the clashes were equally spicy and salty.The Dodgers won six of the 10, with action aplenty -- from bat flips to home-plate collisions, posing at home plate to a historic three-homer game from L. A.'s Mookie Betts.The upstart Padres made sure the old-guard Dodgers could hear them arriving on the scene.While the Dodgers announced that right-hander Walker Buehler will start in Game 1 on Tuesday and Clayton Kershaw will take Game 2, the Padres were working on potential significant roster additions.Top Padres starters Mike Clevinger (elbow) and Dinelson Lamet (biceps/elbow) are still being considered for the NLDS roster after not participating in the wild-card round.In their just-concluded three-game series against the St. Louis Cardinals, the Padres went with starters Chris Paddack and Zach Davies in the first two games, then used nine pitchers to craft a shutout in a deciding Game 3.Clevinger, acquired at the trade deadline from the Cleveland Indians to fortify the starting staff, has not pitched since Sept. 23 and had a cortisone shot in his elbow two days later."We owe them (and) we owe the medical staff (time)," Padres manager Jayce Tingler said. "I feel confident it's going to be a last-minute decision on the roster. Trying to keep everything in play, not ruling anything out."Each one is day to day. It feels like we'll take a half-step forward, then another half-step forward, then we've been having a half-step back. We've got to stack some good days and see where we're at." The Dodgers have their own issues. Buehler has pitched just twice since two separate stints on the injured list in September because of a blister on his right index finger. He went just four innings in the wild-card round against the Milwaukee Brewers."Walker, right now, I think his finger is in a great place," said manager Dave Roberts, who added that some extra days since the end of the wild-card round have been beneficial. "We'll keep an eye on him each inning and he's probably going to be upset when the time comes (to be removed). But we're trying to win this start and the next series as well and have him pitch." The pitching staffs will have to work their way around formidable offenses. The Dodgers have been powered by leadoff hitter Mookie Betts, followed by No. 2 hitter Corey Seager. The Padres are led by No. 2 hitter Fernando Tatis Jr. and No. 3 hitter Manny Machado.Betts hit three home runs in an Aug. 13 victory over the Padres, becoming just the third player in MLB history to hit three homers in a game six times, along with Johnny Mize and Sammy Sosa. Seager also hit a home run in that game.Tatis and Machado combined for six extra-base hits, including four home runs against the Dodgers. Tatis batted just .164 with a .291 slugging percentage over his final 16 regular-season games, but went 5-for-11 (.455) in the wild-card round, with two home runs in Game 2.Tensions grew between the Dodgers and Padres on Aug. 3 when Tatis ran over Dodgers catcher Will Smith and then again on Aug. 11 when the Dodgers' Chris Taylor made hard contact with then-Padres catcher Austin Hedges.More barking between the teams occurred Sept. 14 when the Padres' Trent Grisham took his time leaving the batter's box after hitting a towering home run against Clayton Kershaw."Those guys play with a lot of energy and a lot of guys in that lineup can hurt you with the long ball," Roberts said of the Padres. "It's a momentum-driven team." --Field Level Media

GAME RECAP
Walk in new park: Dodgers open NLDS with 5-1 win over PadresARLINGTON, Texas Justin Turner and the Los Angeles Dodgers had a walk in the new park to start their NL Division Series.The patient Dodgers had already drawn nine free passes before Mookie Betts got their first hit in the sixth inning, and they went ahead to stay on Corey Seager's sacrifice fly right after that in a 5-1 win Tuesday night over the NL West rival San Diego Padres.''We didn't get a lot of hits early, but we took great at-bats and we made those guys work,'' said Turner, who drew two bases on balls. ''Our offense is at its best when we're walking as many times as we're getting hits.'' Mike Clevinger made it only two pitches into the second inning in his postseason debut for the Padres before leaving hurt, and their heavily worked bullpen couldn't keep putting up zeros - or keeping runners off base, even though San Diego gave up only four hits.Game 2 in the best-of-five series at the Texas Rangers' new ballpark is Wednesday night.When Chris Taylor, the No. 9 batter in the Los Angeles order, walked with one out in the sixth in a 1-1 game, it was the Dodgers' ninth walk through 27 batters and the Padres were already on their sixth pitcher. Betts then doubled into the left-field corner to break up the no-hitter, sending Taylor to third and setting up Seager's sac fly.''We felt like it was a matter of time,'' Cody Bellinger said. ''We grinded, and it was a good team win.'' Los Angeles got all four of its hits in the sixth, including RBI singles by Turner and Bellinger. Another run scored on a wild pitch and the Dodgers also got their 10th walk, matching Atlanta in 1997 for the most in a nine-inning NLDS game.The Dodgers scored an unearned run in the fourth when Bellinger reached on a two-out throwing error by rookie second baseman Jake Croneworth after two walks and a wild pitch earlier in the inning.Dustin May (1-0), the 23-year-old Dodgers right-hander who grew up about 30 miles away in Justin, Texas, struck out three over two perfect innings in relief of Walker Buehler. Kenley Jansen, the fourth reliever, finished a three-hitter for Los Angeles.Garrett Richards (0-1), the sixth of nine Padres pitchers, was gone after giving up the hit to Betts. So was manager Jayce Tingler, who was ejected by plate umpire Lance Barrett when making yet another pitching change.With injured starters Clevinger and Dinelson Lamet out for the first round, the Padres became the first team to use at least eight pitchers in three consecutive playoff games. Nine relievers combined on a four-hit shutout in the Game 3 clincher over the St. Louis Cardinals last Friday.The nine pitchers in a nine-inning game is a postseason record, and the Padres have now done it three times in four games.Clevinger had left his last regular-season start Sept. 23 after one inning because of an elbow impingement, but was added to the Padres' 28-player NLDS roster earlier Tuesday, when he was named the starter for Game 1. The herky-jerky right-hander, acquired from Cleveland in a nine-player trade Aug. 31, walked two and threw a wild pitch in a scoreless first.Tingler and a trainer visited the mound after Clevinger went 2-0 on Bellinger to start the second, and the pitcher left after a brief conversation. It was only his second start start since a two-hit shutout in a seven-inning complete game Sept. 13.Buehler struck out eight, but the right-hander who has dealt with blisters all year needed a season-high 95 pitches to get through four innings. He walked four and allowed only two singles.That included Austin Nola's two-out RBI single in the fourth that drove home Wil Myers, who walked before stealing second base.In the stadium where the Padres began their record streak of grand slams in four consecutive games, Buehler walked the bases loaded with one out in the second inning. Buehler got out of the jam with strikeouts of Jurickson Profar and leadoff hitter Trent Grisham, but finished that inning already with 53 pitches and more balls than strikes (27-26) .The Padres had lost five in a row when they got to Texas on Aug. 17, but hit grand slams in four consecutive games against the Rangers - two at the new stadium when the roof was closed, and then the next two games played in San Diego. That was also the start of a seven-game winning streak that pushed the Padres into second place in the NL West for the rest of the season.ROOKIE DEBUTPadres rookie left-hander Ryan Weathers made his major league debut, throwing 1 1/3 scoreless innings. The 20-year-old Weathers became the second pitcher in two days to make his MLB debut in a playoff game, following Tampa Bay reliever Shane McClanahan on Monday night against the New York Yankees. Weathers was the seventh pick in the 2018 amateur draft. He was the fifth player in big league history to debut in a playoff game.SCORELESS STREAKSDodgers pitchers had thrown 14 consecutive scoreless innings until San Diego got on the board in the fourth. Los Angeles has only three longer streaks in the postseason, the record being 21 in a row in 2016. ... Padres pitchers made it to 13 in a row, with all but one of those innings by a reliever, before the Dodgers' unearned run in the fifth.TRAINER'S ROOMPadres: While Clevinger was back briefly, Lamet (right biceps tightness) was left off the NLDS roster. Lamet, who left his last regular-season start Sept. 25, has been playing catch, but hasn't yet thrown a bullpen.Dodgers: INF Edwin Rios was left off the NLDS roster because of a groin issue. Manager Dave Roberts said Rios tweaked his groin after making a play to his right and making a throw to first during a workout Sunday.UP NEXTClayton Kershaw, who still lives in nearby Dallas where the three-time NL Cy Young Award winner grew up, pitches an MLB game in Arlington for the first time in his 13 big league seasons with the Dodgers. The Padres hadn't announced a starter for Game 2.---More MLB: https://apnews.com/MLB and https://twitter.com/-Sports
