Two of MLB's three 100-win teams remain in the playoffs. By the time Thursday night's NLDS matchup is over, only one will remain.
The Dodgers and Giants have lived up to the hype entering the 2021 MLB postseason as the 107-win Giants and 106-win Dodgers have given baseball fans the only Division Series to end in a winner-take-all game.
Both teams are turning to pitchers who have delivered wins to their squads this postseason. The Giants will hand the ball to Logan Webb, who pitched 7.2 scoreless frames with five hits allowed and 10 strikeouts in Game 1 of the series to put San Francisco up in the series.
The Dodgers will have reliever Corey Knebel open the game after Julio Urias was originally slated to start the matchup. Urias allowed one run over five innings to the Giants in Game 2 with three hits and one walk surrendered, while striking out five. Knebel fanned two while pitching a scoreless, hitless seventh inning of that Game 2 matchup as the Dodgers finished with the 9-2 win.

10:05 p.m.: Betts picks up his second single of the day, again a liner to left.
10:01 p.m. End of Third: Posey again follows Ruf out to right, but this one is catchable for Betts.

9:18 p.m.: La Stella flies out for the first out and Ruf nearly sends one out, but he too flys out to right field.

9:13 p.m. End Top First: Trea Turner bounces into an unassisted 4-3 double play as Tommy La Stella fields the grounder up the middle, steps on the bag for one and throws on to first to nab the speedy Turner. Giants will bat in the bottom half.

9:10 p.m.: Mookie Betts starts this game up with a line drive base hit into left for a single.
9:08 p.m.: Game 5 of the NLDS between the Giants and Dodgers is underway. First pitch from Logan Webb is low for a ball.
8:49 p.m.: Dave Roberts shared his reaction to the idea of the Dodgers starting Knebel instead of Urias. He had previously said it was an organizational decision, and that he had just one vote.
Dave Roberts on when he first heard the idea from the front office to use an opener and not have Julio Urías start tonight: "My first reaction was, ‘Interesting…’ And not a question mark. Interesting with like a dot dot dot."
