Quick Summary

The article predicts the outcome of Game 1 between the Dodgers and Brewers in the NLCS, focusing on Milwaukee's pitcher Jacob "The Miz" Misiorowski, who boasts a remarkable 1.80 ERA this season. Despite Misiorowski's dominance over the Dodgers, including striking out 27 batters across three appearances, the article highlights that Shohei Ohtani has managed to hit for power against him, but currently struggles with injuries and a slump at the plate. The piece concludes by suggesting betting on the Dodgers' team total under 2.5 runs at odds of +115 due to their recent offensive struggles.
