For the first time since 1982, the Milwaukee Brewers are heading to the World Series.

After taking a commanding 3-0 lead in the National League Championship Series, things weren't looking too good when the Los Angeles Dodgers jumped out to a 4-0 lead in Game 4.

That said, this Brewers team won 103 games in the regular season for a reason. They're far from the same team that got swept by the Dodgers a year ago, and here in 2026, they were the ones who brought the brooms out.

Aaron Ashby picked up an unbelievable three-inning save, and the Brewers managed to defeat the Dodgers in a bullpen game, 6-4.

A 4-0 deficit in the second inning against the back-to-back World Series champions may be a death sentence to some, but it only lit even more of a fire under this Brewers team.

Shohei Ohtani may have hit his first home run since Tuesday, Aug. 18, but not even that could stop the Brewers from punching their ticket to the World Series.

Once again, this team's bullpen delivered when they needed to do so. No one expected Shane Drohan to go super deep into the ballgame, but on paper, manager Pat Murphy would've loved to get more than just three outs out of him.

Dustin May gave up the blast to Ohtani, but then JoJo Romero and Ashby went out there and did their thing.

The Dodgers had runners on third base against Ashby with only one out in both the seventh and eighth innings, but Ashby kept them in check both times.

With many thinking Trevor Megill would come out for the ninth, Murphy opted not to pitch him on back-to-back days, and it was Ashby who delivered a performance that will be remembered for quite some time.

While it would've been great to get all four runs back right away in the third inning, that's not how things worked out.

The Brewers scored two in the fourth, two in the fifth, and then added insurance runs in the sixth and ninth.

Solo shots from Garrett Mitchell and David Hamilton gave this team the two runs they needed to end a 44-year drought, but there's so much more that went into it.

Los Angeles actually out-hit Milwaukee 8-5, but it's the Brewers who pulled off one of the most shocking sweeps in recent memory.

It was a three-RBI night for Jake Bauers, and shockingly Hamilton was the only Brewers player to finish the game with multiple hits.

Brice Turang drew a pair of crucial walks, and this was the prime example of what Brewers baseball is, and couldn't have been pulled off at a better time.
