The Milwaukee Brewers swept the Los Angeles Dodgers in four games to win the 2026 National League Championship Series, clinching their first pennant in franchise history and first World Series berth since 1982, when the team played in the American League. Milwaukee closed out the series with a 6-4 win at Dodger Stadium on Thursday, October 15, 2026. Garrett Mitchell's go-ahead home run in the sixth inning off reliever Tanner Scott put the Brewers ahead, and David Hamilton added a two-out solo shot off closer Edwin Diaz in the ninth for insurance. Jake Bauers was named NLCS MVP. The sweep ended the Dodgers' bid to become the first National League team to win three consecutive World Series titles, with the Los Angeles offense struggling and the roster dealing with injuries, including to Shohei Ohtani. Milwaukee had lost seven straight postseason games to Los Angeles dating back to a 2025 NLCS sweep before turning the tables this year. The Brewers advanced to face either the Cleveland Guardians or Tampa Bay Rays in the World Series, which opens October 23 at American Family Field in Milwaukee. Predict Six's community correctly called this outcome, with 67 percent forecasting a Brewers pennant.
