The Dodgers' bid for back-to-back World Series championships continues on Tuesday, when they face off against the Cincinnati Reds in a best-of-three series to see who moves on to the National League Divisional Series.
Despite taking the National League West title with a 93-69 record, the Boys in Blue were forced into the Wild Card Round as they had fewer wins than the Philadelphia Phillies and Milwaukee Brewers. They'll play host for the entire series against the Reds, who clinched the league's final playoff spot as the New York Mets were shutout by the Miami Marlins.
