LOS ANGELES -- Tyler Glasnow struck out eight batters, Tommy Edman hit a go-ahead RBI single in the sixth inning and the Los Angeles Dodgers took a commanding lead in the National League Championship Series with a 3-1 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers on Thursday.
Mookie Betts had an RBI double in the first inning and Roki Sasaki delivered his third save of the postseason as the Dodgers never trailed on their way to a 3-0 lead in the best-of-seven series.
The Dodgers will aim for a sweep in Game 4 at home on Friday.
Glasnow gave up one run on three hits over 5 2/3 innings with three walks. He has allowed one run total in three postseason appearances (13 1/3 innings).
Jacob Misiorowski had nine strikeouts in five innings of relief for the Brewers. Jake Bauers had an RBI single as the major leagues' top team in the regular season moved one loss away from the offseason.
After having just one official at-bat with a runner in scoring position through the first two games of the series, Milwaukee went 1-for-7 with runners in scoring position in Game 3.
The Dodgers did not waste any time getting on the scoreboard. Shohei Ohtani hit opener Aaron Ashby's fifth pitch for a triple into the right field corner then scored one pitch later when Betts doubled to right-center.
The Brewers got even in the second inning when Caleb Durbin tripled to left and Bauers followed with an RBI single.
Misiorowski (2-1) dominated immediately after replacing Ashby in the first inning. He ended the frame with strikeouts of Edman and Teoscar Hernandez. Misiorowski allowed two runs (one earned) on three hits and one walk.
Will Smith singled with one out in the sixth against Misiorowski and Freddie Freeman followed with a walk. Edman's single to center field scored Smith and moved Freeman to third. Freeman then scored when reliever Abner Uribe fired an errant pickoff throw to first base.
Things only got worse for Milwaukee when leadoff hitter Jackson Chourio departed during an at-bat in the seventh inning with a right leg injury.
Los Angeles' bullpen did not allow a run as Alex Vesia (2-0) and Blake Treinen each went two-thirds of an inning, Anthony Banda pitched a scoreless eighth and Sasaki had a perfect ninth.
