Dodgers advance to NLCS


 

The Los Angeles Dodgers are moving on to the National League Championship Series after defeating the San Diego Padres 2-0 in Friday's Game 5 of the NLDS.

Kiké Hernández homered in the second inning to score what proved to be the winning run. The 33-year-old continued his penchant for coming through in the clutch during the playoffs, as Hernández boasts 14 home runs and a .899 OPS in 188 postseason at-bats compared to a .713 OPS in 3,487 career regular-season at-bats.
