This brutal stat helps explain the Dodgers’ offensive struggles vs. Brewers

The Los Angeles Dodgers are experiencing significant offensive struggles when facing the Milwaukee Brewers. According to Los Angeles Times insider Bill Shaikin, the team's batting average in the National League Championship Series is .161, trailing Milwaukee's .292. The issue becomes particularly apparent early in the game, as Dodgers fans witnessed a concerning statistic.

After the first inning, the Dodgers trailed 1-0, highlighting their offensive difficulties. Despite the presence of power hitters such as Shohei Ohtani and Freddie Freeman, the Dodgers failed to generate hits after the sixth inning. Even the team's most formidable hitters, including Ohtani, struggled against the Brewers' relief pitchers.

The Brewers' victory at Chavez Ravine on Wednesday further exemplified these offensive challenges. Blake Snell's performance was praised, but the Dodgers' struggles persisted throughout the game.
