Going to Game 7
Milwaukee wasn’t done playing baseball after they fell to 3–2 in the NLCS on Wednesday so they came out with bats on fire in the first on Friday. While David Freese got the scoring started in the top of the first with a solo home run, the Brewers weren’t behind for long. The home team sent 9 batters to the plate and scored 4 runs in the bottom of the inning.
Doubles by Jesus Aguilar and Mike Moustakas along with singles by Lorenzo Cain and Erik Kratz scored 4 runs to get the Brewers rolling. Hyun-Jin Ryu only lasted 3 innings as he gave up 7 hits and 5 runs. But it really didn’t matter beyond the 3rd run since the Dodger offense struggled to put things together.
In all, the West Coast representative only managed 5 hits and went a resounding 0 for 3 with runners in scoring position. David Freese was the only real contributor going 2 for 3 with a home run and 2 RBIs but to put things into perspective without his 2 hits and Ryu’s single, the rest of the Dodger offense barely did a thing.
The bottom line is that Milwaukee was fired up and they forced a game 7.
