Story summary

In Game 4 of the NLDS on October 7, Tyler Glasnow started for the Los Angeles Dodgers against Atlanta Braves' pitcher Tyler Mahle at Truist Park. The Dodgers clinched their series victory over the Braves with a 4-1 win, advancing to the National League Championship Series for the third consecutive year. Andy Pages delivered the pivotal moment in the seventh inning with a two-run single that gave Los Angeles the lead and eventually sealed the game. Despite Glasnow's strong performance (4⅔ innings, allowing just one hit), he was replaced after issuing back-to-back walks, leading to Dave Roberts' strategic bullpen management. The victory marked the Dodgers’ first series win in Atlanta since 2019 and their pursuit of becoming the first NL team to win three consecutive World Series titles. Michael Harris II sparked a key inning for the Braves with his leadoff single but failed to score as Glasnow’s wild pitch allowed Will Smith to block it, preventing runs. The Dodgers relied on strong bullpen work from Alex Vesia and Max Muncy's solo home run in the ninth to secure their place in the NLCS. Pages' clutch hit transformed his postseason legacy after a difficult 2022 World Series performance. The series victory also ended Atlanta’s season as the Dodgers moved forward with high hopes of defending their title.

Kike Hernandez’s two-run blast and Freddie Freeman’s clutch solo shot in the fourth inning halted Chris Sale’s dominant early showing, leading to a 3-1 win. Mahle now takes the mound for Atlanta, and he has pitched well at home since joining the Braves. However, even if he is able to cool down LA’s bats, the Braves’ inconsistent hitting has hurt them this series.
