The National League Championship Series, Dodgers vs Brewers, is set to get underway tonight from Milwaukee’s Miller Park, as the NL Central champion Brewers prepare to welcome the visiting Los Angeles Dodgers, winners of the NL West. The Dodgers barely escaped with the division, mounting a furious comeback to tie Colorado in the division standings and force a Game 163.
The Dodgers won, sending the Rockies to the wild card game. The Brewers won a similar tiebreaker in their division against the Cubs after going 19-6 in September to catch the Cubs atop the division. The Brewers then swept Colorado in the NLDS, while the Dodgers eliminated the Atlanta Braves in four games in their division series. With a trip to the World Series on the line, the two teams begin their series on Friday night. Check out our MLB Betting preview before locking in your wager.
