Pitching Match-Up<br />
</h2>
<p>
<b>L.A:</b> Hyun-Jin Ryu (7-3 1.97 ERA)<br />
<b>Boston: </b>David Price (16-7 3.58 ERA)
</p>
<p></p>
<p>
Ryu’s last start was in Game 6 o the NLCS, and he was not sharp going only three innings and giving up five earned runs on seven hits in the 7-2 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers. The Dodgers had won his first two playoff starts where he gave up two earned runs in 11 1/3 innings of work. This game will be his first career start facing the Red Sox in Boston.
</p>
<p>
In six career playoff starts Ryu is 2-1 with an ERA of 3.56. The Dodgers have won four of his last five interleague starts, but they have lost 12 of his previous 14 road starts facing a team with a winning record.
</p>
<p>
Price finally got the monkey off his back in his last start winning his first playoff start in 12 tries. He started Game 5 of the ALCS and was solid tossing six scoreless innings and only allowing three hits in Boston’s 4-1 win over the Houston Astros, which closed out the series. In Price’s first two playoff appearances this season he gave up seven earned runs in six 1/3 innings.
</p>
<p>
In 20 career playoff appearances, including 12 starts, Price is 1-9 with an ERA of 5.04. The Red Sox have won Price's last five interleague starts, and they are 21-6 in his previous 27 home starts.
