The Milwaukee Brewers erased an early four-run deficit to beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 6-4 on Thursday, completing a four-game sweep of the National League Championship Series and advancing to their first World Series since 1982.
Shohei Ohtani hit a three-run home run after Andy Pages’ RBI single gave Los Angeles a 4-0 lead in the second inning. Milwaukee began its comeback with Jake Bauers’ two-run double. Bauers later drew a bases-loaded walk that tied the game in the fifth, and Garrett Mitchell hit the go-ahead home run off Tanner Scott in the sixth.
The Brewers used a bullpen game, with four pitchers holding the Dodgers scoreless over the final seven innings. JoJo Romero worked two innings, while Aaron Ashby pitched the final three for his second save of the postseason. Dodgers starter Tyler Glasnow allowed four runs on three hits and two walks in 4 1/3 innings, striking out six.
The result ended the two-time defending champions’ attempt to win a third consecutive World Series and reversed last season’s NLCS, when Los Angeles swept Milwaukee. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said his team had been outplayed “in all facets.”
Milwaukee will host Game 1 of the World Series on Oct. 23 against the winner of the American League Championship Series between the Cleveland Guardians and Tampa Bay Rays. Cleveland held a 2-1 series lead after a 3-2 win Thursday.
