The Los Angeles Dodgers were forced to tap into their depth right away and it paid off immediately. Their offense needed a few innings to get going, but an incredible performance from Walker Buehler and the bullpen helped Los Angeles secure a 6-0 victory against the Washington Nationals in Game 1 of the NLDS. Juan Soto, Washington's hero in the wild-card game, singled to lead off the second inning to record the Nationals only hit against Buehler.
