Jurickson Profar, a left fielder for the Colorado Rockies, was out early on Sunday against Los Angeles with a twisted left knee after he ran into the wall while making a catch, putting an end to the Dodgers' second inning. Profar made an impressive play on a quick line drive hit by Mookie Betts', but he also pushed hard into the long section of the left field wall with a mesh covering over a video board at Dodger Stadium. This isn't the first time a visiting player has been hospitalized by the Dodgers' outfield wall, although the Dodgers' outfield wall is also outstanding this year.

As Josh Bell, Trent Grisham, Jurickson Profar, and Manny Machado all went deep for San Diego as Scherzer gave up the most homers he had lost in a postseason game. The foursome received their highest rating from any regular-season game, a figure that the three-time Cy Young Award reached three times before. The fifth-seeded Padres will sweep the ground on Saturday night behind left-hander Blake Snell. The Mets had yet to name a starter, but it is expected that they would send their co-ace, two-time Cy Young Award winner Jacob deGrom, to the octagon in the must-win competition.
