New York at Los Angeles

The Los Angeles Dodgers had the best record in baseball for most of the season, but the offense has been exposed, and this team is in a prolonged slump. The Dodgers finally scored yesterday, after having been shutout in three straight by the Giants, but the 2 runs were not enough to put one in the win column. The Dodgers have now scored just 15 total runs in their last 11 games - less than the Mets have scored in their last two! It won't get any easier against R.A. Dickey who has arguably been the best pitcher in baseball to this point of the season. Dickey is 11-1 with a 2.31 ERA, and has held opponents to 2 runs or less 11 times. The Mets are 20-8 after allowing 2 runs or less in their previous game, while the Dodgers are 0-7 when facing a team that allowed 2 runs or less in their previous game. Play on the Mets.
