The defending world champion Los Angeles Dodgers have a one-game lead in the NLCS following a Game 1 win against the Milwaukee Brewers thanks, in part, to 10 strikeouts from starting pitcher Blake Snell.
One of the highlights of last night’s Game 1 was a bizarre 8-6-2 double play where center fielder Sal Frelick caught, and subsequently lost and re-caught, a fly ball. He then threw to shortstop Joey Ortiz, who whipped it around to catcher William Contreras in time to tag Teoscar Hernandez out at home plate.
Even with the run-robbing chaotic double play, the Dodgers still emerged victorious in the 2-1 win.
