00:00It is the reunion of the two National League Championship teams last year.

00:06The Dodgers winning in seven games, coming back from three games to one down.

00:10Ian Anderson, 23-year-old right-hander, 4-2, 327 ERA, making his 11th start.

00:16Dodgers saw him in the NLCS.

00:17He gave up two runs on five hits in three innings of Game 7 of the NLCS.

00:22So the count runs full on Betts.

00:26Did he go?

00:27He did!

00:28And Betts is rung up on the appeal.

00:30Contreras came out of the box, waited for the call, and then fires the ball down to third.

00:34And Mookie Betts is out number one.

00:36So that's an E5 on Austin Riley.

00:39Now, Justin Turner's coming up.

00:42The L.A. Dodgers this year have hit into 34 double plays.

00:46There's the ground ball.

00:47Dansby's got it.

00:48Second, 4-1.

00:49Ozzie to turn!

00:50There's the double play.

00:51Anderson needed that.

00:53Dodgers are out in the first inning, and Atlanta goes to work at home next.

00:5712th start of the season for Julio Urias, 7-2.

01:03Seven wins tied with Clayton Kershaw for the second most in the National League.

01:07Just one behind the St. Louis Cardinals' Jack Flaherty.

01:11So here's Freddie Freeman.

01:12Times have been tough for the Braves' first baseman.

01:14One for his last 14.

01:16One-two on the way.

01:18Club high in the air to deep center field.

01:20This one's drifting back.

01:21This baby's going to take a ride.

01:24A home run out of Freddie Freeman, and it's 1-0 Braves.

01:28Stars bring out.

01:29These guys bring out the best in guys.

01:32Freeman had one hour behind his last 45 A.B.s.

01:35That ball is actually hammered after saying, and see that smile Freddie had with the Panda?

01:40Cody Bellinger up for the Dodgers.

01:43The pitch.

01:44Strike three, and Bellinger didn't like that.

01:50I think he let the umpire know it, too.

01:54He was in there Friday night, alternate red uniforms.

01:57The pitch.

01:58And a swing and a miss.

01:59There is the changeup.

02:01Smith couldn't resist.

02:03Three Dodgers strikeouts in an inning and two-thirds.

02:061-0 Atlanta.

02:07Here's Chris Taylor.

02:082-2 on the way.

02:09Strike three.

02:10Got him swinging.

02:12Anderson and Contreras fired up as he got him with that changeup.

02:16Lux, Pollock, and Urias for the Dodgers here in the third inning.

02:19And another change.

02:21Right now, they can't make the adjustment.

02:22He has struck out the last four hitters in a row.

02:24And five in total.

02:27Freeman hit a home run back in the first inning.

02:29It was beautiful.

02:30A shot to straightaway center tonight.

02:34Third strikeout of the game for Julio Urias as he gets Freeman to chase.

02:38And there's one down.

02:39Second, Walker is giving up.

02:41One out, one on.

02:43Austin Riley coming up.

02:46There goes the runner.

02:47Throw down a second.

02:48And it is in time to get him.

02:51Always thrown out for the first time this year.

02:54And the Braves might actually take a look at this.

02:57He's out.

02:58Ah, nonsense.

02:59Wow.

03:00Another New York protecting their own.

03:03Second walk of the inning and the game.

03:06As Turner moves to first, his 28th walk.

03:09This is again what is exasperating when you face the Dodgers.

03:12They do not just go up there hacking away.

03:14Granted bat by Bellinger.

03:16He's about to see a tenth pitch.

03:17And he's seen everything Ian's got.

03:20There he goes.

03:213-2 on the way.

03:22That time they got him.

03:23Swung on and missed.

03:24And a changeup claims Bellinger.

03:27And strikeout number six out of Ian Anderson.

03:29And another zero hung up on the board for Ian.

03:32Gavin Lux will be the batter.

03:34Where he struck out his first time.

03:35Chased a changeup.

03:37Now the 3-2.

03:39Lined into right field for a base hit.

03:41And rolls against the wall.

03:43Taylor rounding third.

03:45And he will be held there.

03:47And the Dodgers now with their first hit.

03:50Have second and third one man out.

03:52And A.J. Pollock coming up.

03:54Anderson set.

03:56Here's the pitch.

03:58Ground ball toward third.

04:00They come to the plate.

04:01It hits Taylor.

04:02And he scores.

04:04Riley's throw hit the back of Chris Taylor.

04:06And it's 1-1.

04:08First and third.

04:09And Julio will stay in the game now.

04:10As he'll bat for himself with the ball game tied.

04:13They're going to bunt him here.

04:16And he puts it in play.

04:18And here comes Lux.

04:19And he scores.

04:21A head first slide.

04:23Lux.

04:25Coming on contact.

04:27The safety squeeze works.

04:29And the Dodgers take a lead.

04:30It's 2-1.

04:31And that's going to be all for Ian Anderson.

04:33Who threw 97 pitches.

04:35And really had to labor through the 4th and the 5th innings.

04:39Justin Turner with the bases loaded.

04:41Dodgers have taken the lead.

04:43Big pitch in this young game.

04:47Here it comes to Turner.

04:50Outside ball four.

04:51And the Dodgers take a 3-1 lead.

04:54Talk about getting free stuff.

04:56Now here's Bellinger.

04:57There's a 3-1 count with the bases loaded and two out.

05:00Dodgers 3-1.

05:01Newcomb delivers.

05:03Low and inside ball four.

05:05And the Dodgers lead it.

05:074-1.

05:08Reyes comes in to score.

05:10The Dodgers and Will Smith want to tack on.

05:13Contreras gives him the side.

05:14He works the extreme first base side of the rubber.

05:16But he sends one home.

05:17And there's a shot up the middle and a base hit.

05:20Will Smith gets it time.

05:22Pools comes in to score.

05:23And the Dodgers have added on.

05:275-1.

05:29The walks have come back to really hurt Atlanta.

05:32Only the two hits.

05:33And this one brings in some more runs.

05:36That is a bullet.

05:38Here is Chris Taylor.

05:39Chris Taylor knocks in a couple more.

05:51And it's 7-1.

05:52Now 8-1.

05:53He clears the bases with a double.

05:56So Freddie Freeman's the sum total of the Braves offense tonight.

05:58Let's see if Atlanta can change that here in the seventh inning.

06:01They will feast their eyes on right-handed pitcher Mitch White.

06:06Here's a 2-2.

06:07Ball strike three.

06:08Fastball at the knees.

06:10First out of the seventh.

06:12So a 1-2 count now to Abraham Almonte.

06:18Good work for Mitchell White.

06:19Sees three batters.

06:20Strikes out two of them.

06:22And the right-hander from Santa Clara gets it done on the bottom of the seventh.

06:26So White's going to hit for himself here.

06:28Why not?

06:29After a good inning.

06:30Let's see how he swings the bat.

06:32And have a seat.

06:33At least for the moment.

06:35Three up.

06:35Three down again for Santana.

06:37Two perfect innings.

06:39So Freeman aboard on the force play.

06:40First and third with one out.

06:42This ball hit high in the air to deep right field.

06:45Betts gave up on it for a moment.

06:47Now back to the wall.

06:48Won't get it.

06:49It's off the fence.

06:50That's going to score one.

06:52Freddie Freeman on his way to third.

06:53They're going to send him around.

06:55Throw to the plate.

06:55Short hops.

06:56And Freeman's in safely.

06:58So the Braves make a good game of it in the eighth inning.

07:01A two-run double from Ozzie Albies.

07:03He's got a two-hit night.

07:07And the Braves inching back closer.

07:09That gives the crowd something to yell about.

07:11It's 8-3.

07:12The Braves need a ton of base runners.

07:14And Riley has a single.

07:15It's up to Eddie Adrianza, who's one for three.

07:19He popped up.

07:24Pollock says he has it.

07:27And the ball drops.

07:28One run is in.

07:30Streaking home is Riley.

07:31He's going to be safe.

07:33Three Dodgers can't catch one ball.

07:36And the Braves get a giant break.

07:38It's 8-5.

07:42The man at third.

07:44Nobody out.

07:45Many, many times.

07:46Albert's cleaned this one up.

07:49And that one to the backstop.

07:51Nobody covered in the plate.

07:52Here comes Mookie.

07:53And he's safe.

07:55Matzik had a late break to the plate.

07:57And Mookie scores standing up.

07:599-5.

08:00These Braves in the ninth inning keep finding ways to make it interesting.

08:03And they're off to a really good start.

08:05Back-to-back walks to Almonte and Enciarte.

08:08Reigning MVP of the National League.

08:11In the left-hand batter's box.

08:13Two balls, two strikes.

08:14Freeman strikes out swinging on a 95-mile-an-hour fast.

08:19There's two out.

08:21Braves are down to their final out.

08:24And the 3-2.

08:26He popped him up.

08:28This should do it.

08:29Bellinger makes the catch.

08:32And the Dodgers start the road trip off with a win.

08:359-5 over the Braves.
