Slumping Brewers must improve their approach at the plate to have any hope of coming back in NLCS
The Milwaukee Brewers are making the types of mistakes at the plate that they avoided while producing the best regular-season record in the major leagues.
Right-handed reliever Nick Mears was dropped from the Brewers’ roster for the start of the NLCS as the club opted instead for Tobias Myers to provide length for a best-of-seven series against the Dodgers set to begin Monday night at American Family Field.
Game 2 of the 2025 NLCS features the Milwaukee Brewers hosting the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday evening. Los Angeles started the series off with a 2-1 victory on Monday. Yoshinobu Yamamoto (12-8) takes the hill for Los Angeles, and Freddy Peralta (17-6, 2.70 ERA) gets the ball for the Brewers.
After outlasting the Chicago Cubs in the Divisional Round of the playoffs, the Milwaukee Brewers take on the Dodgers beginning tonight for the National League pennant.
The Chicago Cubs came one game short of reaching the NLCS after returning to the MLB playoffs for the first time since 2020. Chicago forced a Game 5 of the NLDS against the division rival Milwaukee Brewers but ultimately fell short as their season came to an end.
Teams to drop the first two games in a best-of-seven series at home are only 3-25 all-time, good for a paltry 12% winning percentage. This is the situation the Milwaukee Brewers find themselves in against the Los Angeles Dodgers, but don’t tell Pat Murphy – or his 10-year-old son, Austin – the odds.
The pope, a noted White Sox fan, had a graceful retort to someone shouting, "Go Cubs!" in the crowd at St. Peter's Square on Oct. 15.
