The Los Angeles Dodgers secured a commanding 8-0 victory over the New York Mets in Game 3 of the National League Championship Series (NLCS), taking a 2-1 lead in the series. Key contributions came from Kiké Hernández, who hit a two-run homer, and Shohei Ohtani, who added a three-run shot in the eighth inning. Pitcher Walker Buehler delivered a standout performance, striking out Francisco Lindor with the bases loaded, which shifted the game's momentum. The Dodgers have now achieved four shutouts in their last five playoff games, tying a historic record. As they prepare for Game 4, the Dodgers aim to continue their strong postseason showing. The Mets, facing elimination, must rally to keep their championship hopes alive.
