This is a battle between the top two teams in the National League, with the winner of the series earning a trip to the World Series. The Brewers held the better record during the regular season and were a perfect 6-0 against Los Angeles, but in the postseason, the slates are wiped clean.

The Dodgers were not healthy for much of the year, but they are now as close to full strength as possible. Their starting pitching has been the catalyst for them during the first two rounds of the playoffs, as Blake Snell (who gets the start tonight), Yoshinobu Yamamoto, and Tyler Glasnow have formed a dynamic starting rotation.

Milwaukee will try to ride the momentum of its Game 5 NLDS win over the Cubs into this series. They had to exhaust many of their top pitching resources to advance, making their plan for Game 1 up in the air. If their bats get going early, they might be more inclined to use some of their better pitchers out of the bullpen.

This is a fantastic MLB matchup that you will not want to miss; make sure to tune in and catch all the action.
