The Dodgers’ postseason run comes with a familiar bonus for fans who like their baseball with a side of orange chicken: the $7 Panda Express plate deal is sticking around.
After Los Angeles opened the NLDS with a 5-3 win over the Atlanta Braves on Saturday, October 3rd, the team announced that the promotion remains available for the postseason. The offer is tied to Dodgers home wins and can be accessed through the Panda Express app.
The deal comes with a few strings attached. Fans have to use code DODGERSWIN, and they still have to pay tax, delivery, and other fees.
It’s limited to one per day, valid only the day after a Dodgers home game win, and runs until 11:59 pm. A Panda Rewards membership is required, and additional restrictions apply.
Full details are available at pandaex.press/dodgerswin.
The timing matters because the Dodgers are back at Dodger Stadium on Sunday, October 4th for Game 2, which starts at 5 p.m. PT on FS1.
If the series reaches Game 5, that matchup is set for Friday, October 9th at 5 p.m. PST on Fox.
If the Dodgers sweep, Game 3 would be in Atlanta.
Beyond the NLDS, the schedule could create even more chances for the promotion to come into play. If Los Angeles advances to the NLCS, there would be at least two home games and possibly three. In the World Series, the Dodgers would have home-field advantage and could host up to four games.
For fans hoping to cash in, the message is simple: the home wins are the key, and the opportunity is now.

Dodgers Let NLDS Control Slip Away After Another Offensive Letdown
Blake Snells afternoon never found a rhythm, and the Dodgers could not do enough offensively to take advantage of the opening it created. Los Angeles dropped a 3-2 decision to the Braves in Game 2 of the National League Division Series, a result that evened the series at one game apiece and left the Dodgers searching for the timely hit that has been missing too often in October.
Snell issued a season-high five walks, and the game turned on a chaotic stretch that included a wild pitch from Braves reliever Kris Bubic before Atlanta grabbed the go-ahead run. Freddie Freeman also came through for the Braves with a home run, his first since Sept. 2, adding another swing that helped flip the momentum and leave the Dodgers with a split instead of control.

Dodgers Face A Lineup Decision That Could Test Braves In Game 3
After getting bottled up by the Braves in Game 2 of the National League Division Series, the Dodgers are staring at a familiar October problem: how to jolt an offense that went quiet when it needed to answer back. Atlanta leaned on multiple pitchers to keep Los Angeles in check, and now Dave Roberts is weighing a lineup tweak for Game 3 as the series shifts into a more urgent phase for a team trying to avoid elimination.
The concern centers on center fielder Andy Pages, whose postseason struggles have become hard to ignore, and that has opened the door for Enrique Hernandez to potentially step in and give the lineup a different look. Hernandez has earned a reputation as a reliable October bat, which is part of what makes this decision so interesting for the Dodgers, who need more than just better at-bats now - they need a spark that can change the feel of the series.

Dodgers Suddenly Face A Real Andy Pages Lineup Dilemma
Andy Pages arrived at October with the kind of profile the Dodgers hoped would translate, but through two postseason games he has not found much traction. He has gone hitless in eight plate appearances, drawing one walk and striking out four times, and the swing-and-miss issues have stood out even more because they are so far above his regular-season norms. For a Dodgers lineup built to keep pressure on opposing pitching, that kind of drop-off from a regular contributor quickly becomes hard to ignore.
Dave Roberts has already made one adjustment by limiting Pages ability to challenge calls, a small but telling sign that the club is trying to manage both the player and the moment. If the struggles continue, the Dodgers do not appear short on alternatives, which only adds to the tension around Pages spot. In October, even a young hitter with legitimate upside can find himself one rough stretch away from a lineup debate. [Read more 🡒]
