Washington's defense has been generous throughout the series and the gift shop has been opened again in the first round. With a setback, Christian Yelich jumped on a 1-0 curved ball from Jeremy Hellickson and centered it on the far right for his 16th round of the season, including 15 at home.

Mike Moustakas sent a hard-hitting player to third baseman Anthony Rendon, who started it for a mistake, and Ryan Braun started the walk. Eric Thames threw a flying ball on the left field line and, when Adam Eaton knocked her over trying to attack, she landed in fair territory and turned in the stands for a double.

After Travis Shaw walked to charge the bases, Manny Piña threw a third shot, giving Hellickson a chance to escape with two points. But Orlando Arcia jumped on a fast 3-1 ball and lined up in the right field for a two-point single, giving the Brewers a 4-0 lead.

With a second in the Brewers, Yelich aligns a change to center for a shot. Moustakas followed with an imposing volley to the far right, and Victor Robles attempted a jump to the wall. For a moment, referee Fieldin Culbreth was not sure if Robles had caught the ball and delayed his call, but he managed to break through the barrier for a two-point run, the No. 9 for Moustakas this season.

Another big day for Yelich: The home race of the first game marked the beginning of another memorable day for Yelich, who reached four goals, including two singles and a walk. In his other game at sixth base, second baseman Brian Dozier stole a shot on a dive dagger, who threw it out.

The Albers series ends: The two innings allowed by Albers in the seventh inning allowed the team to make seven consecutive scoreless goals. During that period, he allowed only two hits in more than seven innings while scoring 10 strikeouts.

National champions at your fingertips: Clemson football coach Dabo Swinney launched a ceremonial ceremonial for former Brewers fieldman Bill Spiers, who became a full-time coach for the Tigers, winner of two of the previous three titles of the NCAA Division I. The son of Spiers, Will, punishes for the football team. Spiers, who played baseball at Clemson before being selected by the Brewers in the first round in 1987, came back for his diploma and his football training.

Moustakas hits a cable: Moustakas violently struck the line of the right field so high that he hit a carrying cable on the roof. He landed in just right territory but because the support cable was in infamous territory, it was a dead bullet. Moustakas then flew to the left.
