Friday at 07:20 AM2 days Prices higher for anticipated Skubal-Misiorowski clashAnticipation is high in Milwaukee. Per Gametime, as of Thursday, demand for tickets is higher for Game 1 on Sunday in Milwaukee than it was three days prior to the start of the series last season. The median ticket price for Sunday's game was $484 as of Thursday, compared to $345 the same time last year. The get-in price for Game 1 is $249, compared to $160 in 2025.Adding to the anticipation for Game 1 is an expected pitching matchup between Milwaukee's presumptive Cy Young winner, Jacob Misiorowski, and Dodgers ace Tarik Skubal, who won the AL Cy Young Award with the Detroit Tigers in 2024 and 2025. The median price for Game 2 (Monday) isn't as high, but it's still higher than last year ($357) at $426

25 minutes ago25 min Dodgers with Ohtani and Smith not 100% aren't quite the same team.. Age might finally be starting to catch up to that everyday lineup.Tucker and Pages are now the only hitters in their primes.Also, watching MIL shows once again how it's a young man's game more now than ever...just more speed, base running defense, general energy.

2 minutes ago2 min It’s the brewers.They hit fewer home runs than both Cleveland and Tampa in the regular season.They’re the only team in mlb with a team wide opposite field approach. Tampa is closest. https://www.mlb.com/news/2026-brewers-offense-what-is-workingThe brewers have perfected scoring runs without hitting homers. They scored the 2nd most runs in baseball. 100 more than the rays. 150 more than the guardians. It’s just not close. The brewers do it way better than both of those teams.Upvote94DownvoteReplyAwardShareMilwaukee BrewersYep. And, this is one of the many reasons a Rays/Brewers World Series would make for some very interesting baseball. I remain hopeful we can get past Goliath to see the Rays in Milwaukee on October 23.I think it’s the Brewers.The Rays are not small ball so much considering they have Caminero. Having a big slugger in the middle of the lineup who can drive in anyone else who gets on base is inherently not small ball.The Guardians don’t have a small ball offense, they just have a bad offense. The Brewers actually score runs while basically trying NOT to hit home runs.(A fun fact about the Brewers is their exit velocities were significantly higher than the Cubs’ despite the Cubs hitting for significantly more power. This was all due to approach. The Cubs wanted to hit home runs, so they pulled the ball in the air as much as they could. The Brewers waited to decide to swing as long as possible which leads to more walks but also leads a lot of the contact to be hit into the ground or oppo, vastly dampening their power output. It was intentional, not just a team resorting to small ball because they were incapable of doing anything else.)
