Glasnow eagerly gave a thumbs up to the members of the media and walked off the stage.

It’s unknown as to why Glasnow was asked so little, but with his presser behind him, he can now focus on the task at hand.

Potentially pitching in an elimination game on Wednesday.

For Glasnow, the expectation is simple. If the Dodgers win on Tuesday, he’s pitching on Wednesday to move them to the NLCS for the third season in a row.

If they lose on Tuesday, then he’s pitching to save their season.

The series is tied at 1-1 as both teams endured a scorching heat wave that struck Dodger Stadium last weekend; the two teams are out in Atlanta to play Games 3 and 4 of the series.

Los Angeles took Game 1 of the series in a 5-3 victory where Teoscar Hernandez, Kyle Tucker, and Max Muncy all homered in a Saturday afternoon heater where temperatures soared above triple digits.

Game 2 of the series happened during a high-90 degrees Sunday evening when Atlanta got the best of Blake Snell, forcing him to exit the game in the fourth inning.

In the seventh inning, Michael Harris hit a double out to right center field that brought in Matt Olson to make it a 3-1 lead. Muncy homered in the ninth, but it wasn’t enough as Josue De Paula popped out to Austin Riley, ending the night.

With Game 3 underway, Yoshinobu Yamamoto got the starting nod against Chris Sale.

Manager Dave Roberts installed a new lineup card for the Dodgers, as four-time MVP Shohei Ohtani is hitting fifth for the first time in his career since 2020, when he was a member of the Los Angeles Angels.

If the series is forced into a Game 5, it will be played on Friday, Oct. 9 at Dodger Stadium.
