What looked like a fluke on Monday night is turning into a trend on Tuesday. The Milwaukee Brewers, for the second consecutive game, were on the wrong end of a masterful pitching performance, leaving fans wondering whether their lack of offense or the Los Angeles Dodgers’ assembly of aces is to blame.
Tonight, it was Yoshinobu Yamamoto who carved up the Brewers’ offense. The 27-year-old right-hander from Japan accomplished what his co-ace Blake Snell couldn't in Game 1 on Monday night; he finished all nine innings, turning in the first postseason complete game by a Dodgers' pitcher in more than 20 years.
