What happened: Los Angeles and San Francisco were still 0-0 with the game in scheduled status Saturday.

Why it matters: The Dodgers enter at 93-58 and have won three of the last five meetings with San Francisco. The Giants are 62-87 after an 8-2 loss in this matchup on Sept. 18.

By the numbers: Los Angeles has averaged 5.0 runs scored and 3.8 allowed this season, while San Francisco has averaged 4.3 scored and 4.8 allowed. The Dodgers bring a two-game winning streak into the matchup; the Giants enter on a one-game skid.

What to watch: First pitch is the next material update. Once play begins, the game state will move off 0-0.
