Dodgers' Dominance Over Brewers
The Dodgers have taken a strong lead over the Brewers, a sight not seen since 1970 when two road teams in a League Championship Series won both opening games.
This unusual turn of events has been shocking, with both number one seeds looking overmatched within a 72-hour window.
Per Sarah Langs, the Dodgers and Seattle Mariners have achieved something not seen in 55 years.
- In 1970, the Cincinnati Reds won the first two games against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Three Rivers Stadium.
- The 1970 Baltimore Orioles took the first two games against the Minnesota Twins at Metropolitan Stadium, scoring 21 runs.
Both League Championship Series ended in three-game sweeps, with the Orioles winning the World Series against the Reds in five games.
