How did the Los Angeles Dodgers top the Atlanta Braves in the National League Division Series?
Simple: They dominated them in every imagineable way.
The club that looked like a bust at the start of June now seems like a smart World Series bet. They may have never looked stronger than after dispatching of the Braves in four games.
Here's how the clubs stacked up during a lopsided series:
| Dodgers | Braves | |
| Average | .333 | .213 |
| On-base percentage | .386 | .289 |
| Slugging percentage | .565 | .274 |
| On-base plus slugging percentage | .951 | .563 |
| Home runs | 7 | 1 |
| Runs scored | 26 | 14 |
| ERA | 3.08 | 5.82 |
| WHIP | 1.14 | 1.70 |
| Strikeout to walk ratio | 3.0 | 2.9 |
| Strikeouts per nine innings | 10.8 | 9.26 |
| Walks per nine innings | 3.6 | 3.17 |
