Brewers One Win Away from NLCS with 2-0 Lead over Cubs

The Milwaukee Brewers took a commanding 2-0 lead in the National League Division Series against the Chicago Cubs, positioning themselves just one win away from advancing to the NLCS. In Game 2, the Brewers overcame an early deficit with a powerful display of home runs, including two three-run homers by Andrew Vaughn and Jackson Chourio, the latter overcoming a hamstring injury to deliver a pivotal postseason blast. Rookie pitcher Jacob Misiorowski impressed with his fast pitching, helping stabilize the Brewers' bullpen after the Cubs' initial three-run homer. The Brewers' bullpen maintained control through the late innings, with closer Abner Uribe securing the final outs. Milwaukee's offensive power was notable given their regular-season rank of 22nd in home runs, marking a historic moment with two three-run homers in a single postseason game for the first time in franchise history. The Brewers, with strong pitching and unexpected offensive firepower, look to complete the sweep in Game 3 and advance further in the playoffs.
