The Los Angeles Dodgers are kicking off a crucial three-game series with the Philadelphia Phillies on Monday night at Dodger Stadium.
The Dodgers are currently 4.5 games behind the Phillies for the No. 2 seed in the National League. If the Dodgers want any chance of catching Philadelphia to earn the first-round bye, they likely have to sweep Philadelphia this week.
