Dodgers want their fans fired up for Game 5 of NLDS vs. Padres

LA Times  

The National League Division Series heads back to Dodger Stadium for Game 5 on Friday night. “We don’t need any trouble.” On Sunday, in Game 2 of this National League division series, play was halted for roughly 12 minutes. “I hope we don’t have any delays like we did,” pitcher Clayton Kershaw said, “but we still want the energy, we want the atmosphere.” In Game 2, when Padres left fielder Jurickson Profar was the target of flying objects, the umpires would not resume play until what crew chief Dan Bellino termed “enhanced security” arrived in left field. “If I was the commissioner of baseball,” Padres reliever Jeremiah Estrada told USA Today on Monday, “I wouldn’t even allow a Game 5 at their place.” The actual commissioner did not consider moving the game. The commissioner also did not sanction the Padres’ Manny Machado for another incident in Game 2: throwing a baseball in the direction of Dodgers manager Dave Roberts, which Roberts called “unsettling.” Machado said he was throwing an out-of-play ball to the ball boys in the dugout.
