Chris Taylor, who suffered an ankle injury in the Dodgers' win Friday, is expected to be available off the bench in NLCS Game 6 against the Braves.

Mookie Betts’ third-inning catch in Game 5 of the NLCS changed the momentum and helped the Dodgers rally for a season-saving win.Advertisement

Hernández’s solo home run off Fried in Game 1 was the only damage the Dodgers inflicted against the left-hander. Fried allowed the one run on four hits in six innings. The Harvard-Westlake High graduate had nine strikeouts. Walker Buehler will again oppose Fried. The right-hander, still dealing with blisters on his index and middle fingers, has set career highs for walks in each of his last two outings. He issued five walks across five innings in Game 1. He hasn’t pitched into the sixth inning since Aug. 21 — seven starts ago when the blisters first surfaced.

Tony Gonsolin will be available out of the bullpen as a last resort; the Dodgers would prefer holding him out to start Game 7. But they needed to force a Game 7 first.
