Walker Buehler delivered a much-needed performance for the Los Angeles Dodgers on Sunday night, pitching six innings and allowing only one earned run in a 9-2 victory over the Atlanta Braves. This win was significant for Buehler, who had struggled throughout the season with a 1-5 record and a 5.95 ERA before this outing. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts expressed confidence in Buehler's potential to contribute to the team's postseason rotation, especially as injuries to key pitchers like Tyler Glasnow and Clayton Kershaw have created uncertainty. The game saw a dramatic ninth inning where the Dodgers scored seven runs, highlighted by back-to-back-to-back home runs from Teoscar Hernández, Tommy Edman, and Max Muncy. Buehler emphasized the importance of building momentum as the playoffs approach, acknowledging the pressure on him to perform. As the Dodgers aim for their eighth World Series title, Buehler's recent performance may prove pivotal in their postseason strategy.
