Padres-Dodgers may finally be a rivalry, BNightengale writes.
Machado tormented the Dodgers in the field, too, with two dazzling plays. He robbed Trea Turner of an extra-base hit by snaring a line drive in the first inning, and then pulled off an encore in the firth inning by going to his left, grabbing the sharp grounder, spinning, and throwing out Turner at first.
The Padres took advantage of a rare error by the Dodgers to break the tie in the sixth when Turner booted a potential double-play grounder by Wil Myers, advancing Jake Cronenworth to second base. Left fielder Jurickson Profar made the Dodgers pay with a sharp single to right field, his fifth RBI of the postseason, for a 4-3 Padres lead.
And just like that, Darvish had as many postseason victories in one week as he’s produced in his career, spanning seven starts, including his ugly debacle in the 2017 World Series with the Dodgers when he went 0-2 with a 21.60 ERA.
