The last two times Jacob deGrom pitched at Dodger Stadium, he outdueled both Clayton Kershaw and Zack Greinke, winning Games 1 and 5 in last season’s National League Division Series.

deGrom returns to the site of his first career playoff appearances today when his Mets take the field against the Dodgers. deGrom’s start is just one of many highlights in a full 15-game slate available for streaming live on MLB.TV.

He gave up three home runs his last time out, a loss to the Rays in Tampa Bay on Wednesday. He’s been far more effective at home, however, posting a 1.29 ERA in Los Angeles compared with an 8.05 mark on the road.
