Dodgers-Rockies will meet in tiebreaker game to decide NL West
It's going to take another game to decide the winner of the National League West.
Both the Colorado Rockies and Los Angeles Dodgers won their respective games Sunday, leaving the two teams tied atop the division at 91-71.
Colorado will now travel to Los Angeles and play a one-game tiebreaker Monday afternoon at Dodger Stadium. The winner will play the Atlanta Braves in the National League Division Series, while the loser will go up against either the Chicago Cubs or Milwaukee Brewers in the NL wild-card game Tuesday.
The Dodgers, who have won the NL West in each of the last five seasons, are 12-7 against the Rockies this year, going 6-3 at home. Colorado has never won the division in franchise history.
German Marquez (14-10, 3.76 ERA) will start for the Rockies, while rookie Walker Buehler (7-5, 2.76 ERA) will go for the Dodgers.
First pitch is set for 4:09 p.m. ET.
