Dodgers Close in on Second Straight World Series Appearance
The Los Angeles Dodgers moved one game away from reaching a second consecutive World Series with a 3-1 win over the Milwaukee Brewers.
The Dodgers now lead the Brewers 3-0 in the best-of-seven National League Championship Series (NLCS) and would become the first defending champion to make the World Series in 16 years.
The Philadelphia Phillies were the last team to achieve that feat in 2009, while no team has won back-to-back World Series since the New York Yankees clinched three in a row between 1998 and 2000.
