After a thrilling Game 1 victory, the Milwaukee Brewers are ready to keep the momentum going in Game 2 of the NLCS against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Christian Yelich is back in the lineup as the designated hitter, a key boost after manager Pat Murphy sat him out on Sunday in favor of Andrew Vaughn. Yelich isn’t the only change; Sal Frelick steps into right field for Luis Lara, who drove in the game-winning run, and David Hamilton takes over third base from Joey Ortiz. The Brewers are throwing a left-handed-heavy lineup at Dodgers starter Yoshinobu Yamamoto, with five southpaws in the starting nine. On the Dodgers’ side, their lineup is tweaked with Teoscar Hernandez and Will Smith swapping spots in the order, and Tommy Edman replacing Enrique Hernandez at second base. With the series tied at 1-0, Milwaukee wants to grab a 2-0 lead before heading to Los Angeles. First pitch is set for 4 p.m. CT. Here are the full lineups: Brewers – Chourio LF, Turang 2B, Contreras C, Bauers 1B, Yelich DH, Mitchell CF, Pratt SS, Frelick RF, Hamilton 3B; starting pitcher Logan Henderson. Dodgers – Betts SS, Freeman 1B, Hernandez LF, Ohtani DH, Smith C, Muncy 3B, Pages CF, Tucker RF, Edman 2B; starting pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto.
