Luis Severino to Start Game 3 for Mets

Luis Severino is poised to start Game 3 of the NLCS for the New York Mets, aiming to extend their postseason run and potentially reach the World Series. After missing significant time due to injuries in previous seasons, Severino has made a strong comeback, showcasing improved performance with 194 innings pitched this season. Ahead of the critical matchup against the Los Angeles Dodgers, he emphasized the importance of sticking to his routine and maintaining a positive mindset. The Mets are currently tied in the series after a solid performance in Game 2, and Severino's experience in high-pressure situations could be pivotal. Additionally, key players like Francisco Lindor and Pete Alonso have been delivering crucial hits, which could help the Mets capitalize on their momentum. The Dodgers are dealing with a weakened rotation, making the Mets' chances of advancing look promising as they pursue their first World Series appearance since 2015.
