The Los Angeles Dodgers lost to the Milwaukee Brewers 6-2 in the National League Championship Series (NLCS) on Wednesday night, leading many fans to leave the stadium before the game concluded. Videos captured by California Post senior sports reporter Edward Lewis showed fans exiting the stadium in the centerfield area before the ninth inning. Attendance issues were noted, with many empty seats visible throughout Dodger Stadium, despite ticket prices dropping by 42% prior to the game. With this loss, the Dodgers now face a 3-0 deficit in the series and are at risk of being swept. The game began with Jackson Chourio hitting a solo home run on the first pitch. Dodgers pitcher Blake Snell recorded nine strikeouts over six innings. The Dodgers briefly took the lead in the sixth inning when Will Smith hit a two-RBI double. However, the Brewers responded with a two-run homer from Jake Bauers in the seventh inning, followed by an RBI single from Joey Ortiz in the eighth. The Dodgers will host the Brewers for Game 4 on Thursday at 6:00 p.m. PT.
