The Milwaukee Brewers seized a commanding 2-0 lead in their National League Division Series against the Cubs after a power surge led them to a 7-3 victory. Andrew Vaughn ended his lengthy home run drought with a crucial three-run shot, William Contreras delivered a tie-breaking solo homer, and Jackson Chourio, battling a hamstring issue, launched a pivotal three-run homer off a blistering 101 mph fastball. This fireworks-filled night was an outlier for a Brewers team that ranked just 22nd in homers during the regular season. The Cubs, who jumped ahead early with a Seiya Suzuki three-run homer, were ultimately undone by Milwaukee’s bullpen and timely power.

Meanwhile in Philadelphia, the Los Angeles Dodgers edged the Phillies, 4-3, to also go up 2-0 in their series. Blake Snell was dominant for the Dodgers, throwing six scoreless innings and allowing just one hit.

Will Smith followed up with a clutch two-run single, and Shohei Ohtani added an RBI single to give LA a four-run cushion. Philadelphia staged a fierce rally in the ninth, scoring twice with no outs, but the Dodgers bullpen, featuring Blake Treinen, Alex Vesia, and Roki Sasaki, shut the door to preserve the narrow win. This win puts LA in the driver’s seat as they head home for Game 3, with history heavily favoring teams that take the first two games on the road in a five-game series.
