Brewers Backed to Win NLCS Game 3 at +150 as Dodgers Enter as -178 Favorites

3 articles · Updated · The Action Network · Oct 14

Summary

  • Milwaukee is the recommended Game 3 moneyline play at +150 despite trailing only in the betting, with the Brewers already holding a 2-0 NLCS lead over Los Angeles.
  • Robert Gasser is expected to cover only four or five innings, but Milwaukee’s bullpen has become the key edge after recording 15-plus outs and allowing no runs in the first two games.
  • Blake Snell brings a 1.90 ERA for Los Angeles, yet the case against the Dodgers rests on his control risk after a five-walk NLDS outing and Milwaukee’s patient, low-strikeout approach.
  • Los Angeles’ lineup has also undercut its -178 favorite status: Shohei Ohtani is hitting .188 in the playoffs, and only Freddie Freeman, Kyle Tucker and Max Muncy own OPS marks above .700.
