LOS ANGELES — Fourteen months removed from independent ball on Long Island, Rich Hill pitched the Los Angeles Dodgers into a 2-1 NL Championship Series lead. Joe Blanton, Grant Dayton and Kenley Jansen finished, giving the Dodgers consecutive post-season shutouts for the first time. Julio Urias starts Game 4 for the Dodgers on Wednesday and at 20 years, 68 days will become the youngest starting pitcher in post-season history. He’s given up one run in 23 innings over four home starts for the Dodgers, lowering his ERA to 0.39. He’s given up seven earned runs in a combined seven innings of his two post-season starts.
