Brewers-Dodgers NLCS prediction, schedule, scores, and more
Here’s our pick for the NLCS.
The Los Angeles Dodgers and Milwaukee Brewers face off in the 2026 NLCS, a rematch of last year's series where the Dodgers swept the Brewers in four games to secure a second consecutive World Series title. This year's series, set to begin on October 11, presents an intriguing matchup between two top teams in MLB.
The NLCS schedule lists five games, with the first four scheduled for FS1 and Games 5, 6, and 7 potentially on FOX. Home-field advantage is a crucial factor, as the Brewers secured it last year after winning the regular season series. The Brewers' pitching rotation, featuring Jacob Misiorowski and Logan Henderson, provides a strong foundation for the series.
Shohei Ohtani's performance in 2025, although limited due to injuries, remains a significant factor. His recent struggles at the plate could impact the Dodgers' lineup, making the Brewers' chances slightly more favorable. With the Brewers projected to win the series in seven games, the outcome hangs in the balance, but the Brewers edge out the Dodgers in this prediction.
