Through the first five games of the series, to the surprise of many, the Milwaukee Brewers were led by their starting rotation while the offense struggled to get on base and produce runs.
But in Game 6 the Brewer bats got hot as they scored seven runs, including four in the first inning that all but crushed any hopes the Dodgers had of winning last night.
Obviously a positive from this game was that the bats started producing but another element that could play a key role in game seven is that manager Craig Counsell had the luxury to minimize the usage of his big arms in the bullpen, which could be the difference maker in tonight’s game seven.
