In a close game, Los Angeles secured a 3–1 victory, taking a 3–0 NLCS lead.

Ohtani set the tone early with a triple, Glasnow held strong through much of his start, and Edman’s go-ahead hit turned the tide. The bullpen closed the deal, capped by Sasaki’s flawless ninth.

One More Win Needed

With one more win needed, the Dodgers now stand on the brink of a return trip to October’s final stage, a coveted spot that they have fought hard to reach this season.

The team’s resilience and determination have been on full display, showcasing their skills and unity on the field.

If they can secure this last victory, it would not only mark their journey back to the postseason but also solidify their status as one of the top contenders, ready to compete for the ultimate prize of the championship.

  • The Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Milwaukee Brewers 3–1 at Dodger Stadium to take a 3–0 lead in the NLCS.
  • Shohei Ohtani got things started with a leadoff triple in the bottom of the first and scored on Mookie Betts’ RBI double.
  • Milwaukee answered in the 2nd with Caleb Durbin’s triple and an RBI single by Jake Bauers to tie the game 1–1.
  • Tyler Glasnow pitched 5⅔ innings, allowing one run on three hits, walking three, and striking out eight. He exited with the game still tied.
  • In the bottom of the 6th, Will Smith singled and Freddie Freeman walked. Tommy Edman then ripped an RBI single off the struggling Jacob Misiorowski to put LA ahead 2–1.
  • The Dodgers scored an insurance run when reliever Abner Uribe made a wild pickoff throw, allowing Freeman to score.
  • The bullpen delivered the rest. Alex Vesia, Blake Treinen, and Anthony Banda kept Milwaukee off the board, and Rōki Sasaki closed with a perfect 9th for the save.
  • Jacob Misiorowski struck out nine over his 5 innings, but was tagged with the loss.
  • Milwaukee managed just 1-for-7 with runners in scoring position.
  • The win puts the Dodgers one victory away from the World Series.
