NLCS Game 4: Dodgers Look to Clinch Series at Home
LOS ANGELES — The Los Angeles Dodgers will have their first opportunity to advance to the World Series tonight as they host the Milwaukee Brewers in Game 4 of the National League Championship Series.
With a commanding 3-0 series lead, the Dodgers are just one win away from becoming back-to-back National League champions.
Game Details:
- Date: Friday, October 17, 2025
- Location: Dodger Stadium, Los Angeles, CA
- First Pitch: 5:38 p.m. PT (8:38 p.m. ET)
- TV Coverage: TBS, truTV, HBO Max
The Series So Far:
The Dodgers have dominated the first three games, thanks in large part to stellar performances from their starting pitchers and just enough timely offense.
A 3-1 victory in Game 3 on Thursday extended the team’s postseason run to an 8-1 record. The Brewers, meanwhile, have struggled to generate offense, scoring only three runs through the first three contests.
Pitching Matchup:
- Dodgers: Right-handed pitcher Shohei Ohtani (1-1, 2.87 ERA postseason) will take the mound for Los Angeles.
- Brewers: Milwaukee has not yet announced a starting pitcher for the must-win game.
Looking Ahead:
A victory tonight would send the Dodgers to the World Series, while a Brewers win would send the series back to Milwaukee.
However, history is not on the Brewers’ side, as only one team in MLB postseason history has ever come back from a 3-0 deficit.
The Brewers’ offense will need to find its rhythm against a strong Dodgers pitching rotation to keep their season alive.
