Dodgers Lineup vs Mets: Hyeseong Kim and Alex Freeland Starting

In this story:
The Los Angeles Dodgers are looking to take their series against the New York Mets on Tuesday night at Dodger Stadium.
The Dodgers dominated the Mets, 4-0, on Monday behind a brilliant pitching performance from left-handed starter Justin Wrobleski. He threw eight scoreless innings on just 90 pitches en route to the Mets' third shutout in their last four games.
The Dodgers will now turn the ball over to their ace with eyes on another series win.
