Last year the Dodgers swept this same Brewers team in four games on their way to a second straight World Series title.
The Dodgers and Brewers kick off the 2026 NLCS on Sunday, October 11, with Game 1 at 8:00 p.m. Eastern on FOX, a rematch of last year's NLCS, which the Dodgers swept in four games while holding Milwaukee to just one run per game. The Brewers haven't been back to a World Series since losing in 1982.
This year's Brewers arrive as the top seed in all of baseball with 103 wins, a repeat of their seeding last postseason, which didn't translate into results against Los Angeles. The regular-season head-to-head was tight, with the Brewers going 4-3 against the Dodgers while LA held a narrow 27-25 edge in total runs scored.
The full schedule has Game 2 on Monday, October 12 at 5:00 p.m. on FOX/FS1, Game 3 shifting to Los Angeles on Wednesday, October 14 at 8:00 p.m. on FS1, with Game 4 following on Thursday.
The winner advances to the World Series to face either the Rays or the Guardians, the two other remaining teams, with the Dodgers chasing a three-peat and the Brewers still looking for their first championship.
