The Milwaukee Brewers took a 2-0 lead in the National League Championship Series by winning the first two games at home against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Milwaukee won Sunday’s opener 2-1 behind Brice Turang’s solo home run, Luis Lara’s go-ahead RBI single and 4⅔ scoreless innings from four relievers. Los Angeles scored in the second inning when Shohei Ohtani walked and came home on Andy Pages’ single, but the Dodgers left the bases loaded after Enrique Hernández grounded into a double play. Brewers closer Trevor Megill worked around two ninth-inning walks to finish the victory.
In Game 2 on Monday, William Contreras hit a tying home run in the fifth inning and delivered the go-ahead single in the sixth as Milwaukee won 7-4. Turang and Jake Bauers added RBI singles in the eighth. Four Brewers relievers retired the final 15 Dodgers in order, while Los Angeles starter Yoshinobu Yamamoto lasted 2⅔ innings, his shortest postseason start.
The series shifts to Los Angeles for Game 3 on Wednesday. The Athletic reported, according to The Korea Herald, that the Dodgers planned to discuss whether to sit Ohtani for Game 3 of the best-of-seven NLCS. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts cited the two-way star’s physical condition. According to The Korea Herald, Ohtani has been playing through right upper-arm and left-knee injuries and is 3-for-20 this postseason, with all three hits singles. Roberts did not say a decision had been made.

WHAT THE EDITOR DID
The second model checked the writer's draft against the same sources and changed it before publication. Struck words were in the draft; underlined words are its corrections.
WHAT IT FLAGGED editor revise: One Ohtani lineup-discussion claim needed attribution corrected to match the source. - "Los Angeles starter Yoshinobu Yamamoto lasted 2⅔ innings, his shortest postseason start.": The Guardian says Yamamoto lasted 2.2 innings, but 2.2 is baseball notation for 2⅔ innings; no issue there. However, the material problem is that the story does not attribute the Game 2 details to The Guardian? General attribution is not required. - "Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said the club would discuss whether Ohtani should remain in the starting lineup, citing the two-way star’s physical condition.": The Korea Herald says Roberts said the club would talk with Ohtani and figure out what was best, and that The Athletic reported the Dodgers planned to discuss whether to sit Ohtani; it does not say Roberts himself said the club would discuss whether Ohtani should remain in the starting lineup.
