Dodgers/Braves Notes

This is the third time that the Dodgers and Braves are meeting in the baseball quarterfinals/division series.

The teams split in the previous two such series, a defending World Series champion Braves team sweeping L.A. in 1996 while the Dodgers prevailed 3 games to 1 in the 2013 “quarters.”

Also the franchises met in an unscheduled playoff for the N.L. Pennant in 1959.

L.A,  which won that series in 2 straight games leads this “div” series two games to one, with game 4 today in Atlanta.
