By Felo News Desk · Published
Milwaukee advanced to the National League Championship Series with a 3-1 victory over San Diego in Game 4 of the NLDS on Wednesday night, according to Bleacher Report.
Garrett Mitchell opened the scoring with an RBI single in the third inning, and later added a leadoff triple in the fifth before scoring on a Jackson Chourio single. San Diego tied the game in the third when Fernando Tatis Jr. hit a solo homer, but the Brewers reclaimed the lead in the sixth via Sal Frelick’s sacrifice fly.
Key defensive play came in the eighth when Mitchell robbed Manny Machado of a potential game‑tying home run with a center‑field catch. The Padres managed only three hits and struck out nine, while Milwaukee recorded ten hits. The Brewers now face the Los Angeles Dodgers in the NLCS for the second consecutive season.
