The Los Angeles Dodgers are just one win away from returning to the World Series, as they look to sweep the Milwaukee Brewers at Dodger Stadium. But as Dodger shortstop Mookie Betts put it, “I have zero emotions. We’re up, but like Kobe said—job’s not done.” Should the Brewers win, the Dodgers will once again host the Brewers tomorrow, Saturday, Oct. 18. Shohei Ohtani will start tonight for the Dodgers, while Jose Quintana will start for the Brewers.
