MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN — The Milwaukee Brewers beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 7-4 on Monday and lead the National League Championship Series two games to none.
William Contreras went 3-for-4 with three RBIs. He singled in a run in the first, tied the game 4-4 with a 436-foot home run to center off Kris Bubic in the fifth, and put Milwaukee ahead for good with a run-scoring single in the sixth.
The Dodgers took a lead three times in the first six innings. Each time, the Brewers answered in the bottom half. Christian Yelich's two-run single in the third chased Yoshinobu Yamamoto after eight outs, which MLB.com reported was his shortest postseason start.
Milwaukee added two in the eighth on singles by Brice Turang and Jake Bauers. Los Angeles finished with three hits. JoJo Romero got the win and Aaron Ashby the save.
The Dodgers started Tarik Skubal and Yamamoto in Milwaukee and lost both.
