    DBD DAILY: RP3's 3 Things To Watch In NLCS Game 3

    Game 3 of the NLCS is today in L.A. 5 p.m., very specifically, Pacific Time. Blake Snell on the bump. The Dodgers trail the Brewers 2-0 in this 7-game series. And that is concerning.  How concerning? Well, in the history of baseball, a team has gotten out to a 2-0 in a best-of-7 series 95 times. Of those 95 times, 79 times the leading team went on to win the series. I.e., 83.2 percent of the time. So being down 0-2 is close to a death sentence. Richard Parks III (a.k.a. RP3) looks at the history of Dodgers (and other baseball teams) who have been able to come back from a 2-0 deficit in a 7-game series. Because that’s exactly what the Dodgers are going to have to do here in Game3, in order to advance past the NLCS to the World Series, and win a third-straight championship, a.k.a. 3peat. Then, RP3 picks out 3 things to watch in this all-important NLCS Game 3. Thing #1: The Shohei Factor. RP3 summarizes and updates the unfolding conversation about a significant slump the Dodgers two-way star has been mired in, which lead to a talk with Dodgers manager Dave Roberts. Since our last episode. Thing #2: Believe! RP3 muses on previous low-points from throughout Dodgers post-season history, and rallies for the type of “belief” espoused by legendary Dodgers manager Tommy Lasorda, who once said, “All you gotta do is believe.” Thing #3: Snellzilla. He’s the “little girl with the curl” as Vin Scully used to say. Snell had a sparkling October in 2025. But in his sole start in the 2026 post-season, Game 2 of the NLDS, Snell couldn’t get through 4 innings, and he walked 5. His reputation as a Dodger and as a post-season performer is on the line today. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
