The Los Angeles Dodgers host the Boston Red Sox to conclude their back-and-forth series on Sunday, July 21.
The Dodgers have scored the go-ahead run in their final at-bat each of the past two nights, with Freddie Freeman hitting a Grand Slam on Friday night and Will Smith lacing a walk-off single in the bottom of the 11th inning on Saturday night.
Both teams are in strong playoff contention, and if the season ended today both would qualify for the postseason.
Can the Dodgers complete the sweep or will the Red Sox get a much-needed win to keep pace with both the Baltimore Orioles and New York Yankees?
