Brice Turang probably dreamed about his last at-bat from the Milwaukee Brewers' Monday night, 2-1 opening-game loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 1 of the National League Championship Series at American Family Field in Milwaukee.

It was more like a nightmare.

Turang was at the plate with the bases loaded and two out, facing shaky Dodgers reliever Blake Treinen. Dodgers closer Roki Sasaki came on to pitch in the home half of the ninth inning and promptly allowed one earned run. Sasaki also walked two, bringing Dodgers manager Dave Roberts out of the dugout to pull him for Treinen.

Turang worked the count into his favor and almost was hit by a Treinen pitch. But he moved out of the way just before the ball probably hit him. If this had happened, the Brewers would have scored the tying run. But they didn't.

Then Turang took a mighty whack at a ball above his head, striking out and ending the ballgame. It wasn't the way that he'd want that last at-bat to be seen around the MLB world.

"Well, if you see me look in the dugout, I’m thinking, 'Damn,'" Turang said after the game, according to MLB.com. "I know it. Everybody knows it. I couldn’t tell you why I did it, I just got out of the way. That’s just how it is. You see me look in the dugout and I’m thinking to myself, 'I could have turned into that.' There’s nothing I can do. I have to move on to the next pitch."

Well, that next pitch was not even near the strike zone. Brewers fans that were on their feet quickly went silent and headed toward the exits.

Brewers reliever Abner Uribe gave up a bases-loaded walk to Mookie Betts in the top of the ninth inning to give Los Angeles at 2-0 lead at that point. Milwaukee decided to walk Shohei Ohtani, who has had an awful postseason, to get to Betts. That move backfired on Brewers manager Pat Murphy.

"It wasn't as hard a decision as you think, because when a bag's open and you can turn it into a double-play situation [and] you've got a right-hander on the mound, you kind of have to go for that," Murphy said.

"Shohei is at least dangerous enough – struggling or not, he's dangerous enough to hit a fly ball. And you can't give up the run there. With the way we were swinging against Snell, we couldn't give up a run."

Snell is Dodgers starter Blake Snell, who faced the minimum through eight incredible innings and only gave up one hit. Snell was on his game in a big, big way. 

The Brew Crew needs to rebound on Tuesday night. First pitch at American Family Field is set for 8:08 p.m. Eastern. The game will be telecast on TBS, truTV, and HBO Max. TBS will have pre-game and post-game shows. MLB Network also will have pre-game and post-game shows, too.
