The Dodgers jumped on the Marlins early in Game 3 and were able to coast to a victory. Los Angeles has maintained a large lead in the NL West and has the best record in baseball. The Dodgers will start Tony Gonsolin, who has allowed two runs over his last 23.2 innings pitched. For the Marlins, Pablo Lopez has been inconsistent lately and has allowed 18 runs over his last 24 innings. I like the Dodgers in this matchup and expect a similar outcome to Sunday.
