Prediction

The Dodgers are trying not to get humiliated and lose a fourth consecutive postseason series at Dodger Stadium, the Brewers are just trying to continue what has been a mediocre season. In order for the Dodgers to win Cody Bellinger and Corey Seager can’t go a combined 7-39 with zero home runs and RBI’s and Dave Roberts will need to trut his bullpen instead of bringing in a struggling Clatyon Kershaw in the 7th and 8th innings.

Speaking of Kershaw, if he is ever going to burnish the notion that he wilts in October he can change that by setting the tone in his Game Two start, he will either be asked to end the series or keep the Dodgers short season alive.

Even though it’s a short series expect the Dodgers best players to elevate their game and end the Brewers season for the second time in three years.

Dodgers 2-0
