One swing settled it. Brice Turang's home run proved the difference as Milwaukee edged the Dodgers 2-1 in the postseason, a tense, low-scoring night decided by margins rather than muscle at the plate.

Behind that blow, the Brewers' relief corps slammed the door and the infield snuffed out rallies on the dirt. The Dodgers never found their power stroke — a single run is a stark return for a line-up built to erupt.

The payoff is positional: Milwaukee now leads the series and controls its own path forward. If the bullpen keeps protecting leads this thin, the blueprint is simple — scrape together a couple of runs and let the arms finish.
