The LA Dodgers kept their hope of a second consecutive World Series alive with an 11-2 win in game five. They have been 2-0 and 3-1 down in the series and still have an uphill struggle, however, if they can win tonight they have a home game to finish the series. History could be on their side as the series has almost mirrored last years encounter where Atlanta also went 2-0 and 3-1 up before the Dodgers rallied to win the last three.
Atlanta hasn’t reached the final since 1999 but will not have a better chance providing lightning doesn’t strike twice.
