MILWAUKEE (KABC) -- The Los Angeles Dodgers will face the Milwaukee Brewers in the National League Championship Series. Game 1 is on Monday in Milwaukee.
Andrew Vaughn hit a tiebreaking homer in the fourth inning, and William Contreras and Brice Turang also went deep as the Brewers shook off their recent history of playoff frustration by beating the Chicago Cubs 3-1 in the decisive fifth game of their NL Division Series on Saturday.
The top-seeded Brewers, making their seventh playoff appearance in the last eight years, earned their first postseason series win since sweeping Colorado in the 2018 NLDS. The Brewers were on the verge of their second World Series appearance in franchise history that year before losing Game 7 of the National League Championship Series at home to the Dodgers.
