The Dodgers lost 7-4 to the Brewers on Monday and return home trailing 2-0 in the National League Championship Series, putting their bid for a third straight title in jeopardy.
Los Angeles scored four runs, but the game turned into a bullpen contest. Some of those runs came with help from Milwaukee, while timely hits remained hard to find for the Dodgers.
Will Smith has one hit through six postseason games and is batting .043. Mookie Betts said the Dodgers were trying to put together good at-bats rather than swing for home runs, and acknowledged the strength of their opponent.
Brewers manager Pat Murphy praised the Dodgers after the game but said his team would focus only on the next contest.
