[How to watch Brewers vs. Dodgers | NLCS Game 4 live blog]
The Los Angeles Dodgers’ quest for back-to-back World Series championships is alive and well, having pulled to a commanding 3-0 lead over the Milwaukee Brewers after a 3-1 win in Game 3 on Thursday.

L.A.’s pitching this series has been stellar: After Blake Snell’s one-hit gem and Yoshinobu Yamamoto’s complete game in Milwaukee, Tyler Glasnow got things started in Los Angeles for Game 3 with a great 5 2/3-inning showing. The Dodgers’ bullpen, which has had its struggles this season, came in to close it down. Roki Sasaki, a highly-touted pitching prospect whose role as a starter was limited due to a lengthy IL stint this season, has become the team’s premier closer and proved that again with a scoreless ninth inning.
Now, the Dodgers are one win away from a sweep of the Brewers and a return to the World Series — with home-field advantage, and with Shohei Ohtani on the mound, facing off against Jose Quintana. The No. 1 NL seed Brewers face an uphill battle to salvage their season, having scored only three runs combined in the NLCS.

If the NLCS is a relay for the Dodgers, Blake Snell was the first leg, getting L.A. out to an early lead in Game 1 and setting the tone for the series. Yoshinobu Yamamoto took the second leg for the Dodgers in Game 2, not only extending the lead but also injecting confidence into the team as the series moved to Dodger Stadium.
Right-hander Tyler Glasnow was handed the baton for Game 3 on Thursday, with the goal of continuing the momentum and putting the Dodgers on the doorstep of another World Series appearance. And here they are, one win away from their second straight NL pennant after beating the Brewers, 3-1.
“Glas, he definitely wants to feel in a good spot with his delivery,” Dodgers pitching coach Mark Prior said pregame. “I think that the primary objective of his every single day is to feel like his delivery is in a good spot. But he is 6-foot-7, and sometimes lining those pieces up takes some time, whether that’s warming up in the bullpen or maybe trying to get in the second or third inning. We’ve seen him come out lights-out, and we’ve seen him have to navigate.”
