Scary moment when D'Backs PH Christian Walker led off the 6th by taking a Yu Darvish heater to the helmet. Fortunately, Walker showed minimal damage and even stayed in the game.
The motto of this year's MLB Playoffs: Take '17. Every team is talented and deep; there's no telling who might walk away with the 2017 championship. Here, we look back on the Arizona/Los Angeles NLDS.
LA's Justin Turner, a first-time All-Star in 2017, opened the Dodgers' postseason scoring with a three-run homer to left off Arizona's Taijuan Walker. The blast, which followed Chris Taylor's single and Corey Seager's walk, put LA up 3-0 in the 1st.
