The San Diego Padres made history in Game 2 of the NLDS and will look to carry the momentum into Game 3

The San Diego Padres enter the best-of-five series of the National League Division Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday tied at one game apiece.

The Dodgers won Game 1 behind some heroics from Shohei Ohtani, while the Padres bounced back in Game 2 thanks to a history-making offensive performance.

According to @OptaSTATS on social media:

The @Padres are the first team in MLB history to hit six home runs in a postseason game on the road.

The Padres got home runs from Kyle Higashioka, Xander Bogaerts, David Peralta, Fernando Tatis Jr. and Jackson Merrill. Tatis Jr. hit two blasts, giving him three for the postseason.

In addition to the offensive breakout, the Padres also had a solid start from Yu Darvish. He allowed just one run over 7.0 innings. He struck out three.

Game 3 of the series will be played on Tuesday night in San Diego as right-hander Michael King (SD) takes on right-hander Walker Buehler (LAD).

King had an excellent regular season, going 13-9 with a 2.95 ERA. He made one start in which he struck out 12 Atlanta Braves batters in the wild-card round. Buehler is making his first postseason start after going 1-6 with a 5.38 ERA.

First pitch is scheduled for 9:08 p.m. ET at Petco Park.

In the other NLDS, the Mets and Phillies are also tied in one game each. The two teams will also play Game 3 in New York on the Wednesday before this game begins. Sean Manaea (NYM) throws against Aaron Nola (PHI).
