Breaking: The Braves won Game 2 of the NLCS over the Dodgers with a second walk-off play in two days.
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts talks about the decision to not start third baseman Justin Turner in Game 2 of the NLCS, as well as the team’s lineup options.
Manager Dave Roberts said Turner is battling a stinger on the right side of his neck that first popped up during batting practice before Saturday’s series-opener. Chris Taylor will start at third base on Sunday, but Roberts said Turner should still be available to come off the bench for “a big spot to pinch hit” and expects the 36-year-old to be back in the lineup for Tuesday’s Game 3.
