LOS ANGELES — On Friday night, the Los Angeles Dodgers’ late-game rally against the Chicago Cubs began after their starting pitcher blocked home plate.
Once down by three runs, the Dodgers completed a 4-3 victory in walk-off fashion, winning their fifth consecutive game on Will Smith’s RBI single in the bottom of the 10th.
And if not for Tyler Anderson’s block of home plate roughly an hour earlier, it might never have happened.
