Brewers Sweep the Dodgers in the NLCS to Reach the World Series for the First Time since 1982
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Garrett Mitchell hit a go-ahead homer off reliever Tanner Scott in the sixth inning, Milwaukee's bullpen slammed the door late and the Brewers rallied past the Los Angeles Dodgers 6-4 on Thursday in Game 4 of the National League Championship Series to earn their first trip to the World Series since 1982.
Garrett Mitchell's go-ahead homer in the sixth inning helped propel the Milwaukee Brewers to a 6-4 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 4 of the National League Championship Series. David Hamilton's two-out solo shot in the ninth gave the Brewers a two-run lead. Shohei Ohtani's first postseason home run put the Dodgers ahead 4-0 early, but Milwaukee rallied back to secure the four-game sweep, their first since 1982.
Mitchell's 409-foot leadoff drive to center field, his first ever on an 0-2 count, put the Brewers ahead for the first time. The Brewers' bullpen excelled late, striking out key Dodgers players like Max Muncy and Mookie Betts to seal the win.
