Hello and welcome to the NLDS victory celebration, as after five tough games against the Padres, the Dodgers took home the victory in the win-or-go-home game.

An emotional, small and salty series comes to an end, which this recap will reflect.

Yoshinobu Yamamoto, the pitching hero from Game 5, was a bit out of the picture during the NL West celebration, but the team made sure he was included in the celebration time and time again.

Shohei Ohtani is obviously a favorite target, and he will hopefully win the NLCS and WS MVP.

Likewise, a Kirsten Watson interview with Teoscar Hernandez found them both soaking wet.
