Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Andy Pages has been slated for another start in center field, batting ninth in Game 5 of the National League Championship Series (NLCS) against the New York Mets. According to Kirsten Watson of Spectrum SportsNet LA, this marks Pages’ second consecutive start in the series as the Mets deploy left-handed pitcher David Peterson for the second game in a row.

The decision to start Pages comes after his performance in Game 4, where despite the Dodgers securing a victory, he recorded an 0-for-4 at the plate with one strikeout. The team hopes to capitalize on his potential to counteract the left-handed pitching strategy employed by the Mets.

Pages’ inclusion in the lineup highlights the Dodgers’ strategic adjustments as they advance through the postseason, aiming to optimize player matchups based on opposition pitching and previous game results.
