Shohei Ohtani put the exclamation point of exclamation points on the Los Angeles Dodgers‘ sweep of the Milwaukee Brewers in the NLCS, striking out 10 in six shutout innings on the mound and blasting three home runs at the plate in Friday’s Game 4.
The Dodgers will face the Seattle Mariners or Toronto Blue Jays in the World Series.
The Mariners, behind a game-tying solo home run from Cal Raleigh and a grand slam by Eugenio Suarez slam during a five-run eighth inning, knocked off the Blue Jays in Game 5 on Friday to take a 3-2 lead in the ALCS. It was the first win by the home team in the series.
Game 6 is Sunday in Toronto. The Blue Jays would host a Game 7 on Monday if they can extend the series.
