Fireworks are expected as the National League West’s juggernauts in the Dodgers and the Padres are set to collide in the rubber match of their three-game series. The champions drew first blood after winning in extras in Game 1, while the Friars bounced back and decimated L.A. in Game 2.<\/p>\n

With their well-documented struggles on the mound due to injuries, Dave Roberts<\/a> selected second-year hurler Justin Wrobleski to face off against Randy Vasquez on the road. Wrobleski has a career record of 2-4, across eight starts and 11 total games played.<\/p>\n
