The Los Angeles Dodgers have a commanding 3-0 lead over the Milwaukee Brewers as they head into Game 4 of the NLCS tonight. While it appears that the Dodgers may be poised to win the whole thing, I’d like to remind Brewers fans of the Red Sox’ come-from-behind win at the 2004 ALCS where they were also down 0-3 and came back to not just defeat the Yankees over the next four games, but win the whole championship. If the Curse of the Bambino can be broken, so too can the Curse of the, uh, Brewbino.
The winner of this series will face the winner of the ALCS between the Toronto Blue Jays and Seattle Mariners at the World Series, which is scheduled to begin Friday, Oct. 24.
