The Braves have already been labeled underdogs leading up to the National League Championship Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers. DraftKings SportsBook puts the Dodgers at -195 and the Braves at +165.

This isn’t the first time, though, that the Braves have been considered the underdogs in a crucial series. DraftKings also projected the Brewers to take the division series against the Braves, but Atlanta’s timely hitting and a strong bullpen performance crushed those odds and allowed the Braves to advance to the NLCS for a rematch with the reigning National League Champions.

Atlanta seeks a game one win tonight at 8:08 ET with Max Fried on the bump.
