Looking back at past brewers and Dodgers matches

Tomorrow evening Brewer And the The Dodgers They will start their three-game streak to start the 2020 post-season season for these two teams. While teams are a lot different than they were in previous seasons, looking back at past series can give us an indication of how they were confronted. While they didn’t play in 2020, they played every year before that, and results are close. Let’s take a look at the last 10 seasons these two teams have played each other.

2019: 3-4

2-1 @ Dodger Stadium
1-3 @ Miller Park

After the 2018 NLCS, two early series between these two teams garnered much attention from baseball. The first series took place from April 12-14 at Dodger Stadium, with the Brewers team taking 2 out of 3 matches. Unfortunately, the Home Series a few days later (April 18-21) did not go well, with the Brewers losing 3 of 4. A few of those games were late, but the Brewers’ team couldn’t get the win.

2018: 6-8

2-2 Regular Season, 1-2 postseason @ Dodger Stadium
1-2 Regular Season, 2-2 postseason @ Miller Park

The 2018 meetings between these two teams will become one of the most memorable meetings between the two teams for many years. They first met in Milwaukee after an all-star break, and the Dodgers 2 of 3 took over at the July 20-22 meeting. A week later, the two teams met again in Los Angeles, with slightly better results for the Brewers. The series split there 2–2, with the Brewers claiming the first two matches and the Dodgers in the last two.

Of course, the series we’ll remember for years is the 2018 NLCS post-season that year. With the home field advantage, the Brewers started going strong and outpaced the Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw, By winning 6-5 and taking the lead 1-0 early. Game 2 started well for the Brewers, leading 3–0 in the match. However, Bullpen couldn’t lead, and the Brewers ended up losing 4-3 to send the series a 1-1 tie to Los Angeles.

The Brewers quickly bounced back and regained the lead, like Jhoulys Chacin He led the team to a 4–0 lockdown in Game 3. In Game 4, it became a duel of archers and neither team would relent, sending the game into additional innings. In the thirteenth inning, he hit the Dodgers team, taking a 2–1 victory and the series drawn 2–2. Game 5 will be remembered more famously for changing text after 1 paddle, like Miley Valley The game “started” before he was replaced by Brandon Woodruff. The move didn’t end as successful as the brewers had hoped, and while it took a few rounds, the Dodgers eventually broke through the brewers’ staff and clinched a 5–2 victory, sending the series back to Milwaukee with the Brewers down 3-2.

With the home crowd behind the Brewers, they started hard and didn’t look back at game 6. Although the Dodgers team immediately scored in the first half, the Brewers answered four runs in the lower half and never looked back as they dominated in one game. Win 7-2 to force the game 7 to determine the chain. The Brewers took the early lead in Game 7 with a first-half round, but the Dodgers answered twice per second, and the game remained 2–1 through 6. It was there that the Dodgers took full control, putting them three runs on their home ground and giving them a Game 7 victory.

2017: 3-3

2-1 @ Dodger Stadium
1-2 in Miller Park

2017 was another year soon between the two teams. The Brewers went home 1-2 on the chain between June 2-4. This included a 12-game loss 2-1 in the first meeting between the two teams, then a 10-8 loss the next day before a 3-0 closure to end the series. They met again in late August in Los Angeles, with the Brewers taking the series 2–1. All three matches were close, with the Dodgers starting the series with a 3–1 victory before the Brewers team took the next two games, 3–2 and 3–0.

2016: 2-5

1-3 @ Dodger Stadium
1-2 in Miller Park

The 2016 season was more than one sided between these two teams. They met for the first time from June 16 to 19, with the Dodgers taking 3 of 4 in Los Angeles, including two of those who were on an exit. They met again a week and a half later in Milwaukee, and the Dodgers took 2 of the 3 others in that series.

2015: 3-4

1-2 @ Dodger Stadium
2-2 @ Miller Park

Although this year’s series doesn’t look much different from its predecessors, the 2015 series was a key moment for the franchise. Before their series debut at Miller Park starting May 4, the Brewers made a change of training, with manager Ron Roenicke fired after starting the season 7–18. This series against the Dodgers will be Craig ConsilHe was the first manager of the Brewers team, and began with a 4-3 win over the Dodgers. The Brewers would go on to split that chain 2-2 to start Counsell’s managerial career. The two met again on July 10-12, with Dodgers taking 2 of 3 in that series in Los Angeles.

The previous five years

Here’s a quick look at the five years leading up to the 2015 season:

• 2014: 5-1 (3-0 on the road, 2-1 at home)
• 2013: 2-4 (1-2 on the road, 1-2 at home)
• 2012: 6-1 (4-0 on the road, 2-1 at home)
• 2011: 4-2 (1-1 on the road, 3-1 at home)
• 2010: 2-4 (2-1 on the road, 0-3 at home)

The results were mixed and generally favored one side. The Brewers won the season 3 series from 5 years, with the Dodgers taking another two years.

Looking back at the past ten years these teams have generally played, these two tended to be very equal, with the two teams tied at 36-36. Regardless of the year, they played well against each other and we hope this continues beyond the season. This is one interesting observation from these records. The Brewers have actually played better in Los Angeles than they have played at home. The Brewers have a record of 20-15 in these 10 seasons at Dodger Stadium, compared to a record of 16-21 at Miller Park.

Does that mean he’s moving to this year’s postseason series? not necessarily. These two clubs are very different from any team in the past. The Dodgers definitely have a huge advantage in the series. However, beer machines do not count by any means. They have a chance to take a postseason series here, and history shows this can go either way.
