NLCS Game 1: One more thriller goes the Brewers way with Lara, bullpen shining (10.12.2026)

You didn't think the new series meant any less nail-biting, did you? The Brewers survived another epic with a 2-1 win over the Dodgers in Game 1 of the NLCS, with Brice Turang's homer and Luis Lara's RBI single proving the difference on offense, and a remarkable showing from the Brewers bullpen finishing the deal. Brewers reporter Todd Rosiak and host JR Radcliffe recap the big win, from the great defense (three double plays!) to the lineup decisions that paid off to the surprise contribution of Lara. The Brewers beat Tarik Skubal, the very pitcher they tried to acquire who went to the Dodgers instead, and now they have a 1-0 lead in the NLCS. Can they figure out a way to double-up against Yoshi Yamamoto on Monday?
