In a critical Game 3 of the National League Division Series (NLDS), the Los Angeles Dodgers faced off against the Milwaukee Brewers. The game took place at Dodger Stadium on October 16, 2025. With the series on the line, the Brewers needed a win, but it was the Dodgers who triumphed, taking a commanding 3-0 lead in the series with a score of 3-1.
Tyler Glasnow’s Performance
Dodgers pitcher Tyler Glasnow took the mound aiming to replicate his postseason success. He pitched 5.2 innings, allowing just one run on three hits. Despite not being at his sharpest, Glasnow recorded eight strikeouts while throwing a total of 99 pitches. His notable performance kept the Brewers’ offense at bay, securing the victory in this crucial playoff game.
A Strategic Start
The Brewers, led by manager Pat Murphy, employed a unique strategy by starting lefty reliever Aaron Ashby as an opener. However, rookie Jacob Misiorowski was called to handle bulk duties in the game, a departure from the expected veteran Jose Quintana. Misiorowski shone with impressive relief, striking out a total of six batters across his time on the mound.
Early Game Highlights
- Dodgers opened the scoring with a lead-off triple by Shohei Ohtani, followed by Mookie Betts’s double, making it 1-0.
- In the second inning, Jake Bauers tied the game at 1-1 with a single after a wild play led to a triple.
- Tommy Edman’s single in the sixth inning put the Dodgers ahead 2-1, capitalizing on walks and errors by the Brewers.
Injury Concerns
One alarming moment in the game occurred when Dodgers outfielder Jackson Chourio exited with a leg injury. His departure raised concerns about the health of the young star as the playoffs continue.
Looking Ahead
With the Dodgers now leading the NLDS 3-0, the series will continue with Game 4 scheduled. The matchup will likely feature Shohei Ohtani on the mound for the Dodgers and Jose Quintana for the Brewers. The tension is palpable as both teams strive for a spot in the next round.
