When the Brewers needed to bounce back from a frustrating 2-1 loss at home in Game 1, they would have been forgiven for thinking that Game 2 offered the perfect opportunity. Unfortunately for them, they came up against a simply inspired Yamamoto, who was virtually flawless from the mound. He gave up only a single run while striking out seven men on the plate, giving his own side’s hitters the perfect foundation on which to build. The Brewers will now be counting on a serious dip in his form when they travel to LA for Game 3.
