The Los Angeles Dodgers had to wait a bit longer, but they finally know who they’ll be facing in the National League Divisional Playoffs. After sweeping the Atlanta Braves, the San Diego Padres will begin a best-of-five series against the Dodgers, starting on Saturday.
Thanks to boasting the best record in the NL, Los Angeles has the benefit of home-field advantage, so the series starts off with two games at Dodger Stadium. But for those who aren’t afraid to hit the road for a Dodgers game, they’ll head to San Diego for a Tuesday night Game 3 matchup at Petco Park. Yet, getting tickets may not be as easy as you think.
