Dodgers Lineup vs Rangers: Hyeseong Kim Starting, Shohei Ohtani Bobblehead Night

The Los Angeles Dodgers are back home after a successful 5-1 road trip, and are welcoming a couple familiar faces into Uniqlo Field at Dodger Stadium.

Corey Seager, Joc Pederson and the Texas Rangers are in town for three games this weekend. They enter the series at 7-5, coming off a series sweep of the Seattle Mariners in which they allowed just three total runs.

The Dodgers, on the other hand, swept the Washington Nationals and took two of three from the Toronto Blue Jays in their World Series rematch. Both teams had days off on Thursday heading into this three-game set.
