The Los Angeles Dodgers‘ fortunes have quickly turned in Game 4 of the NLCS.
Their four-run cushion, powered by Shohei Ohtani’s 428-foot home run and delayed arrival to October, disappeared in the top of the fifth inning after what had been a stellar outing from Tyler Glasnow spiraled. Evan Phillips couldn’t clean up the mess, leaving a bases-loaded jam for Alex Vesia, who proceeded to walk Jake Bauers to score the tying run for Milwaukee.
The very next inning, Garrett Mitchell took Tanner Scott deep for a late, go-ahead home run.
GARRETT MITCHELL!
