Dodgers face near impossibility trailing Brewers 3-0
LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers are the 43rd team in MLB postseason history to trail 3-0 in a best-of-7 series. Of the previous 42 such instances, 32 ended in a sweep. The Brewers can clinch a pennant as early as Thursday night in Game 4 of the National League Championship at Dodger Stadium. “We’ve just […]
Dodgers offense is grasping at straws
The Dodgers offense was always facing a difficult task in this NLCS, but their production, or lack thereof, goes beyond any praise the Brewers’ staff may deserve. The Game 3 loss and what the Brewers did offensively against Blake Snell represented an ideal example of what one might reasonably expect from this Dodgers attack: resilience […]
Because if not now, when?
Stop me if you’ve heard this one: A Dodger left-hander, who put video game-like numbers in the regular season, had a colossal dud in arguably the most important game of the year, in no small part by being left to hang out to dry in the seventh inning, before a back-breaking, likely season-breaking, home run. […]
Blake Snell was exactly what the Dodgers needed, until he wasn’t
The Dodgers were in a prime position to sucre a win at home in Game 3 of the NLCS, but Blake Snell couldn’t endure the wrath of Milwaukee’s lineup in a 6-2 loss on Wednesday. Snell faced a similar fate as he did in Game 5 of the 2025 World Series, as he allowed a […]
Dodger notes – Dodgers have one shot to save season
The Los Angeles Dodgers find themselves on the brink of elimination and are watching their World Series hopes come to an end. As Bill Shakin of the L.A. Times details, pretty much all of the moves that manager Dave Roberts made in Game 3 came back to bite him in the patookus. From non-pitching changes […]
How to watch Dodgers vs. Brewers NLCS Game 4
The Dodgers are one loss away from getting swept in the postseason for the first time since the 2023 NLDS against the Diamondbacks. No matter how you want to slice it, they’ve looked inferior in every facet of the game in this series, from situational hitting to defense, bullpen work, and so on—now it’ll be […]
MLB playoffs schedule: ALCS shifts to Cleveland
Thursday brings us two games on the postseason schedule, both of which had their start times altered due to bad weather in Cleveland. Game 3 of the American League Championship Series between the Tampa Bay Rays and Cleveland Guardians was originally slated for a 6 p.m. local start at Progressive Field in Cleveland (3 p.m. […]
Dodgers latest loss to Brewers ‘really hard to put into words’
LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers are still woozy from the gut punch suffered in Game 3, but now face a sobering reality that their odds are long and the Milwaukee Brewers have several chances to deliver the knock out blow in the National League Championship Series. “This one’s up there. The only one I can […]
Jake Bauers strikes again, Brewers stun Blake Snell to beat Dodgers in NLCS Game 3
LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers finally got the big hit they needed, but it didn’t matter. Jake Bauers had another epically long at-bat, this time culminating in a two-run home run to help the Milwaukee Brewers to a 6-2 win in Game 3 of the National League Championship Series on Wednesday night at Dodger Stadium. […]

Dodgers vs. Brewers NLCS Game 3 chat
The Dodgers make a third attempt at their first victory of the National League Championship Series. Shohei Ohtani bats sixth for the first time since September 19, 2020 while with the Angels. Will Smith went from batting third in Game 1 of this series, down to fifth in Game 2 and now seventh in Game […]

The NLCS resumes at Dodger Stadium on Wednesday, with the Dodgers looking to embark on a comeback down 2-0 in the series against the Milwaukee Brewers.

Dodgers are back home in the NLCS, in search of offense
LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers were much better hitting in road games this regular season, but now have up to three games at home this week to try to keep their championship quest alive. They’ll need to find their offense to do so. At Dodger Stadium this season, the Dodgers hit .250/.329/.419 with a 107 […]

The risk of a track meet at Dodger Stadium
On May 26, 2023, I had the unfortunate experience of sitting through a Noah Syndergaard start at Tropicana Field. Normally, Dodger baseball is fun, even in defeat, but this game was an exception. The Rays were getting on base and turning the game into a de facto track meet by bullying Syndergaard’s complete inability to […]
Dodgers & Brewers bullpen exposure through two NLCS games
LOS ANGELES — The Brewers bullpen might be the biggest separating factor through two games of the National League Championship Series, with Milwaukee relievers combining for 9 2/3 scoreless innings thus far in the series. Dodgers relievers were a strength of the team, and given the current health of the staff this might be the […]
Shohei Ohtani in top 3 for two MLB Players Choice Awards
LOS ANGELES — In the moment, the focus is on Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani is mired in one of the worst slumps of his career, he’s clearly been diminished by knee and biceps injuries, but insists he’s close to figuring things out mechanically, and will remain in the lineup for Game 3 of the National […]
NLCS notes: Blake Snell, Shohei Ohtani’s status for Game 3
For the first time in five years, the Dodgers find themselves down two games to begin the National League Championship Series with the series headed back to Los Angeles. The Dodgers offense has shown little to no fight in the series, with Game 2’s back-and-forth clash being the most exhilarating matchup so far. Their duo […]

Dodgers sticking with Shohei Ohtani, who’s ‘adamant’ he’s healthy enough to play
LOS ANGELES — Shohei Ohtani has done very little at the plate for his last 24 games, is dealing with injuries to his left knee and right biceps, and has looked lost at times at the plate during the postseason. Yet the Dodgers are still sticking by their injured super star, with Ohtani set to […]

Dodgers return home in daunting, but not impossible 2-0 hole
The National League Championship Series is back in Los Angeles, and the Dodgers offense has yet to fully show up. One year after sweeping the Milwaukee Brewers in this series, it’s the Brewers with the commanding lead now, trying for their first World Series appearance in 44 years. A two-game losing streak in the postseason […]
Dodgers in a standing eight-count
Bouncer up the middle. Betts to the bag – over to first! To beat the champ, you gotta knock ‘em out! The Dodgers stand tall and win back to back titles! -Joe Davis, Rogers Centre, November 2, 2025 So go the best-laid plans of mice and men, as the Dodgers flop in Game 2 of […]
