Dodgers drop Padres in historic Japanese pitchers’ duel to advance in MLB playoffs



Yoshinobu Yamamoto pitched 5 sensible innings and Los Angeles homered twice in a 2-0 victory over the San Diego Padres on Friday that propelled the Dodgers into the National League Championship Series.

Two days after keeping off elimination, the Dodgers accomplished a 3-2 sequence victory over the Padres within the best-of-five National League Division Series and can host the New York Mets in Game 1 of the best-of-seven NLCS on Sunday.

Yamamoto got here out on high in a historic duel with San Diego hurler Yu Darvish — the competition was the primary MLB postseason match-up between two Japanese-born beginning pitchers.
