The Los Angeles Dodgers have set their rotation for the World Series against the Houston Astros, which starts on Wednesday night at 2:00 pm. Manager Dave Roberts refrains from surprises. The team is still hoping for Shortstop Corey Seager – and the teams have to dig deep into their pockets for tickets in the Dodgers Stadium.

The rotation is set: It was already clear that superstar Clayton Kershaw will be on the Mound in the first home game of the World Series. After that, however, the rotation was still open. Until now: As the Dodgers explained, as in the previous two series, Rich Hill will also be played in the second home game, in game 3 it will be the Japanese Yu Darvish’s turn.
“We wanted to wait and see whether we would have to play at Yankee Stadium or Houston’s Maid Stadium in the minute,” said manager Dave Robert, explaining the decision to let Hill play at home and Darvish run away in the away game. That’s how the boys keep their routines.”
In Match 4 Alex Wood should be the starter, although this will depend on how the first three games progress. In the World Series, the Dodgers have a home ground in the first two games because of the better balance in the regular season, the following two games will be played in Houston. The Astros would also be able to claim 5 home rights in a possible game before the series would be released again for two games according to L. A. could change.
The rotation of Roberts means that Kershaw will hit Lefty Dallas Pant from the Astros in Game 1, Hill has to do with Justin Verlander in Game 2.
Hoping for Seager: It is not yet clear whether Shortstop Corey Seager will be fit in time for the Classic case. The 23-year-old Rookie of the year 2016 had injured himself in the Division Series against the Diamondbacks on his back and therefore had to expose the Championship Series to the Cubs.
Robert was very positive about a bet in the first two home games. But Seager could also be used as a designated hitter in Houston and forego his place on the defensive:”If everything goes well in the first two games, we’ll reassess the situation,”said the manager. Seager took part in the training on Sunday as usual.
Ticket prices: If you’re hoping for a place at the Dodgers Stadium in order to be as close as possible to the team’s first World Series in 29 years, you have to really dig deep into your pocket: As ESPN reports, the average ticket on the secondary endowment policy market currently costs 3,164 dollars, the cheapest standing ticket still costs 888 dollars plus fees.
