Harry How/Getty Images2-1 in 13 innings to take Game 4 of the NLCS at Dodger Stadium on Tuesday night and knot the series at two games apiece.Cody Bellinger sealed the victory with a walk-off single that scored Manny Machado from second base after the sides engaged in a lengthy 1-1 stalemate that began in the top of the fifth inning.MLB MLBGOODNIGHT Alan Trammell Jersey , LOS ANGELES! #Walkoff #NLCS fepDXErYTT Dodgers' Hopes Doomed Without More OffenseDuring the regular season, the Dodgers didn't have any trouble generating offense. They ranked first in the National League in runs scored (804), and they hit 17 more home runs than the second-ranked Brewers.Based on the NLCS, you'd never guess they were so dynamic.Despite Tuesday's Game 4 win, the Dodgers' numbers at the plate in three of their last four games have been downright woeful.Excluding the Game 2 win at Miller Park, L.A. has now struck out 44 times and left 22 runners stranded on base across Games 1, 3 and 4. Those numbers were bolstered Tuesday by 17 whiffs and persistent failures with men on as the Dodgers left eight runners stranded.FOX Sports: MLB MLBONFOXThe strikeouts are piling up for the Dodgers tonight. kWSC68JmfPIn Game 5, the Dodgers have to reverse that trend against Brewers starter Wade Miley.Flipping the switch won't be an easy task considering the Dodgers mustered only two hits in 5.2 innings against Miley in Game 2. With that said, seeing the southpaw for a second time in five days should put them in a more comfortable position as they seek to take a 3-2 series lead. Brewers' Bullpen Can Carry Them to World SeriesThe Brewers entered Game 4 knowing they likely wouldn't receive a particularly lengthy outing from starter Gio Gonzalez, who was pitching on four days rest.What they weren't counting on was Gonzalez departing with no outs in the second inning after he rolled his left ankle trying to field a comeback liner that ricocheted off his glove.As a result, the Brewers' renowned bullpen was thrust into action a few innings earlier than expected. True to form, one of baseball's premier relief groups was up to the task.Rookie Freddy Peralta came on for Gonzalez and twirled three no-hit innings in his first postseason appearance. Fellow first-year stud Corbin Burnes followed suit by tossing two perfect innings with three strikeouts.Greg Beacham gregbeachamFreddy Peralta is absolutely filthy http://www.tigersfanproshop.com/authent … ine-jersey , and the Brewers hadnt even had to use him before tonight in this postseason. Thats one helluva bullpen in Milwaukee.Jon Morosi jonmorosiFreddy Peralta, 22, and Corbin Burnes, 23, are the youngest pitchers to appear for the Brewers all season. Their combined line tonight: 5 innings, 0 runs. MLBONFOX MLBNetwork MLBIn all, six Brewers relievers combined to allow five hits and record all 17 of Milwaukee's strikeouts over the game's final 11.2 innings.MLB Stat of the Day MLBStatoftheDayThe Brewers bullpen has been lights out tonight.Their 17 Ks are the most EVER in a #postseason game. 1ocDYwyXzgAny club would be envious of that depth, and it should continue to buoy the Brewers' pursuit of a world championship even after Tuesday's defeat.Tired arms and all, it would be foolish to count that unit out. Kershaw Needs Best Postseason Outing to Save Dodgers SeasonThe Clayton Kershaw Postseason Narrative has become one of Major League Baseball's most dense and complex texts over the past few years.On some nights, he looks like a world-beater capable of stymying the game's most daunting lineups. Just look at Game 2 of the NLDS, when the southpaw shut down the Atlanta Braves with only two hits allowed over eight shutout innings.But then there are the other nightshe ones that have largely come to define his postseason experience.Long knocked for his inability to rise to the occasion on the game's biggest stage, Kershaw has found consistent productivity hard to come by since he made his first playoff start 10 years ago. Since then Lance Parrish Jersey , he has gone 8-8 with a 4.26 ERA in 21 starts, numbers hardly befitting of his caliber of talent.In Game 1 of the NLCS, Kershaw was downright disappointing. He surrendered four earned runs and six hits, including a home run to Brewers pitcher Brandon Woodruff, over three innings."I think it's hard enough to try and win a postseason game," he said, per ESPN.com's Alden Gonzalez. "I know more than anybody knows that."On Wednesday, he'll have a chance to author an epic response to that series-opening letdown. If he can, the Dodgers will have life when the series shifts back to Milwaukee for Game 6.If not, Los Angeles will have to reckon with yet another postseason dud. What's Next?The Dodgers will host Game 5 on Wednesday afternoon at 5:05 p.m. ET. SAN DIEGO — Whatever the Colorado Rockies do Sunday afternoon in the finale of a four-game series against the Padres at Petco Park, they cannot regain first place in the National League West.The Dodgers and Diamondbacks go into Sunday tied for first in the division with identical 74-62 records. The Rockies, who defeated the Padres 4-2 on Saturday night after losing two straight against the division cellar-dwellers http://www.tigersfanproshop.com/authent … nte-jersey , are a half-game back and in third in the division at 73-62.If the Rockies defeat the Padres on Sunday to gain a split of their four-game series, Colorado will be second in the National League West, and still a half-game off the lead.Article continues below ...If the Rockies lose for the third time in four games to the Padres, they will remain in third, but slip to 1 1/2 games off the lead with 26 games to play.The Rockies get a chance to split after D.J. LeMahieu and Nolan Arenado ended some dubious streaks for the offense. LeMahieu’s homer ended Colorado’s 21-inning scoreless streak and a run of 28 innings without an extra-base hit. Arenado’s hit ended a career-worst 0-for-19 skid and snapped Colorado’s stretch without consecutive hits at 118 at-bats.“The way we’ve hit the last two days, it felt like we hadn’t won in, like, a month,” LeMahieu said. “When we can get that lead early like that, it was a good feeling, for sure.”Looking forward, the future appears bright for the Rockies. After Sunday http://www.tigersfanproshop.com/authent … ood-jersey , they return to Coors Field to open a 10-game homestand Monday afternoon against the Giants. Overall, 17 of the Rockies’ final 26 games will be played in the rarified air of Denver, where they are 34-30.Colorado on Sunday will send left-hander Kyle Freeland (12-7, 2.90 ERA) out against Padres rookie right-hander Jacob Nix (2-2, 4.05), who will be facing the Rockies for the second time in his fifth major league start.The 25-year-old Freeland has the lowest ERA among the Rockies starters as well as the lowest opponents’ batting average (.236) and the lowest WHIP (1.24). Freeland also leads the Rockies with 164 1/3 innings pitched and will be making his team-leading 28th start.Freeland also ranks among the National League leaders in two categories that won’t help him Sunday. He ranks fourth in the league in home ERA with a 2.27 mark, which is doubly impressive since it was compiled at Coors Field. And he ranks fourth in the league with a 2.50 ERA in night games.Freeland is 7-2 in 12 starts at home this season while going 5-5 with a 3.44 ERA in 15 starts on the road.Freeland is also finishing the season strong. He was 3-1 in August with a 2.15 ERA in six starts, striking out 42 in 37 2/3 innings with 15 walks and a .230 opponents’ batting average. He is 6-1 with a 2.16 ERA over his last 13 starts with the Rockies going 11-2.Freeland is 1-2 with a 3.94 ERA in seven career appearances (five starts) against the Padres. He is 0-1 with a 4.50 ERA in three previous games (two starts) at Petco Park.Meanwhile, the 22-year-old Nix is coming off his best start. Tuesday night at Petco Park, Nix threw 8 1/3 shutout innings against Seattle before Nelson Cruz homered. Nix throws to contact. He needed only 79 pitches (58 strikes) while allowing eight hits without issuing a walk or recording a strikeout.He lowered his ERA from 6.17 to 4.05 on Tuesday. His previous start was against the Rockies at Coors Field on Aug. 22 when he allowed three runs on five hits and a walk with two strikeouts in five innings. Nix has issued only five walks in 20 innings and only one in his last 13 1/3.
