The Milwaukee Brewers enter the National League Championship Series as winners of 11 straight, including a 3-0 sweep of the Rockies in the NLDS. I think their streak will come to an end here though against the LA Dodgers who will send left-hander Clayton Kershaw to the mound in the series opener. Kershaw limited Atlanta to two hits through eight scoreless innings his last time out and owns a 4-1 record behind a 1.40 ERA in seven career starts at Miller Park.

Milwaukee hands the ball to left-hander Gio Gonzalez who has stepped up his game since coming over from Washington, but I think he'll find it hard to slow down the Dodgers' bats.

The Dodgers homered eight times during their four-game series against the Braves and I think they'll prove well worth the price in this matchup.

8* play on LA Dodgers.
