Overview
- The Milwaukee Brewers beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 6-2 in Game 3, which put Milwaukee up 3-0 in the National League Championship Series after a seventh-inning rally.
- Jackson Chourio opened the game with a leadoff home run on the first pitch and Jake Bauers followed with an 11-pitch, two-run homer before Garrett Mitchell hit a back-to-back solo shot off Blake Snell.
- Los Angeles managed just seven runs in three games and has yet to hit a home run in the series, leaving the two-time defending champions with a severe offensive shortfall.
- Milwaukee’s bullpen finished the win with Trevor Megill closing but has been heavily used in October, raising questions about reliever fatigue if the series extends.
- If the Brewers win Game 4 on Thursday they will clinch their first National League pennant and complete a rare reversal of last year’s sweep that sent the Dodgers to the World Series.
