UPDATE: Game 2 of the NLDS between the Washington Nationals and the LA Dodgers has been postponed due to rain. The game is re-scheduled to take place on Sunday at 1.08 p.m. ET at Nationals Park.

-------------------

The LA Dodgers and the Washington Nationals will clash in Game 2 of the NL Division Series on Saturday with the Dodgers looking to capitalize on their victory in Game 1 yesterday. The game has a scheduled start time of 4.08 p.m. ET and takes place from Nationals Park in Washington DC. The game can be watched on TV on the FS1 network or online through live stream via the link below.

Rich Hill will be making his postseason debut for the Dodgers in today's game. He was acquired by LA from the A's at the trade deadline and since then he has a 1.83 ERA from his six starts. The Dodgers will be hoping he can continue that excellent form and help the Dodgers to a 2-0 lead here today.

However, the Nationals will know this is almost a must-win game for them already. They dare not fall down to 0-2 from their two home games before things move to California. They will know how important it is to get back level today, and then their next job will be to at least take a share of the spoils in LA to try and take things to a Game 5.

The Dodgers will feel confident coming into Game 2 having won yesterday's opener 4-3, and that victory came about with their star pitcher Clayton Kershaw being far below his best.

The Dodgers hitters managed to take two home runs from National's Max Scherzer, and gained four runs from his six innings. That was enough to take the victory and they now look in a promising position for this series.

Nationals manager Dusty Baker spoke about the decision Washington had to make for their Game 2 starter - Roark or Gio Gonzalez. The team had indicated that the decision was in the balance before, however, he has since said, "Well, you know, we weren't debating that much; we were just kind of messing with you guys to tell you the truth. You know, just we went with our two best. Even though the [Dodgers] are predominately a left-handed-hitting lineup, we just went with our two guys that were the best, and Gio will go third."

Roark meanwhile has said, "I'm very excited. I was already nervous before I woke up this morning, and I'm not pitching till [Saturday]. It's just the kind of person I am to, you know, want to win and the will to win, and to go out there and see everybody succeed is the ultimate goal."
