• Whicker: Brewers are beating Dodgers at their own game, and most others

  15-10-2018 22:13 via ocregister.com
  
  LOS ANGELES — Dodger Stadium throbbed pointlessly Monday night, like a dance club with an empty floor. The inorganic noise was the only thing that kept the National League Championship Series awake.
  Of course, downtown destinations are hard to reach at 4:30 p.m, but the edges of the upper deck never did fill up. The boredom and maybe the entitlement were an invisible shroud, and so was the wonderment. Why did the Milwaukee Brewers, who won four more regular-season games than did the Dodger

  LOS ANGELES — Walker Buehler’s fastball was as fast as ever Monday night. He struck out eight Milwaukee Brewers through the first five innings of Game 3 of the National League Championship Series, including seven on a heater that topped out at 99.4 mph.
  Yet the scoreboard showed an omnipresent deficit, a reflection of the Dodgers’ inability to score as much as Ryan Braun’s RBI double in the first inning. Buehler, for his part, had done his job: he gave the Dodgers a

  It’s what helps keep Twitter in business, after all.
