After a spectacular start by Blake Snell in Game 1 of the NLCS was nearly ruined by a bullpen meltdown in the ninth inning, the Los Angeles Dodgers' greatest postseason concern has finally reared its ugly head.
The Dodgers got lucky this time, narrowly escaping with a 2-1 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers, but the sustainability of their relief corps remains a major concern. Between all the injuries and flat-out abysmal performances, Los Angeles' bullpen is being held together by duct tape and a dream – and it almost cost them dearly in Game 1.
Giving credit where it's due, the Dodgers absolutely do not win this game without getting eight shutout innings from Snell.
