Both teams have clinched a playoff spot, and Los Angeles will start Walker Buehler as he comes off the injured list due to a blister on his right index finger. The Dodgers will use this outing to see how the postseason rotation will work out, and Oakland will be seeing Buehler for the first time. The right-hander has pitched 32 2/3 innings this season, allowing 14 earned runs with 36 strikeouts and a .187 opponent batting average. Buehler has given up just three runs in 16 2/3 innings at home. Mike Fiers owns a 4.67 ERA, and opposing hitters are batting .278 against him. Oakland won Wednesday's game, 6-4, when Ramon Laureano hit a two-out, go-ahead two-run homer in the ninth. The Dodgers haven't lost two straight since Sept. 12 and have won six of their last eight games. Take the Dodgers.
