Los Angeles – Yoshinobu Yamamoto delivered a pitching masterclass, throwing a dazzling three-hitter to propel the Los Angeles Dodgers to a 5-1 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers, securing a 2-0 lead in the National League Championship Series.

He allowed only three scattered hits throughout the game, silencing the Milwaukee bats and keeping them off balance. Yamamoto's stellar outing was a welcome sight for Dodgers fans, who have been eagerly anticipating his impact in the playoffs.
While Yamamoto was shutting down the Brewers' offense, the Dodgers' bats provided ample support. Teoscar Hernández contributed significantly, driving in key runs and showcasing his power.

Despite the daunting task ahead, the Brewers will need to find a way to solve Yamamoto’s repertoire and ignite their offense if they hope to get back into the series. The energy of their home crowd could be a factor as they fight to avoid falling further behind.
For the Dodgers, they will look to continue their strong pitching and timely hitting as they aim to close out the series and advance to the Fall Classic. Yamamoto's performance has set the tone, and they will be hoping for similar contributions from their other starters as the NLCS progresses. The Dodgers are now two games away from the World Series as they travel to Milwaukee.
