The Dodgers and Padres wrote another historic chapter of their rivalry on Tuesday night, as Los Angeles hung on to beat San Diego 5-3 in Game 1 of the National League Division Series at Dodger Stadium.

Two innings later, the Dodgers added three more runs off Clevinger. Turner and Smith each hit doubles, and Gavin Lux recorded one of his own that gave the Dodgers a 4-0 lead. Two batters later, Cody Bellinger reached base on a basesloaded fielding error that tacked on another.
Wil Myers led off the inning with a solo shot to left field, Jake Cronenworth followed with a single, and Ha-Seong Kim sent a double past the diving Trayce Thompson in left to put runners on second and third.
