Dodgers vs. Blue Jays in World Series Rematch Opener

TORONTO — The Los Angeles Dodgers, riding an eight-game win streak after sweeping the Washington Nationals, open a three-game series against the Toronto Blue Jays on Monday night at Rogers Centre. The matchup, set for 7:07 p.m. ET, marks an early-season rematch of last fall's World Series, where the Dodgers prevailed over Toronto in a dramatic seven-game series.

Justin Wrobleski takes the mound for Los Angeles in his second start of the season. The rookie right-hander allowed three earned runs over four innings in his debut and faced the Blue Jays extensively in the postseason, pitching five innings with six strikeouts while holding them to four hits. The Dodgers, who sit first in the National League West, have shown resilience despite injuries to key players like Mookie Betts, on the 10-day injured list with a back issue, and several pitchers including Gavin Stone and Bobby Miller. Their offense has been potent, with Andy Pages leading the way at .471 batting average, three home runs and 10 RBIs through nine games. Freddie Freeman has added two homers and nine RBIs, contributing to a recent comeback victory against the Nationals where the team erased a five-run deficit.
