The Brewers did an interesting thing during game 3 against the Dodgers. They basically took every pitch until they had two strikes to run up the pitch count of the starter. I assume they did that hoping to get to the Dodgers bullpen earlier in the game. I can see the WS going six. Anything is possible in a short series. A lucky bounce, poor defensive play or a starter who gets shelled can be the difference. The Dodgers can go into an offensive funk or their bullpen can start blowing games like they did all season. The formula has been winning on the road with starters who go six or more innings giving up less than two runs and shortening the bullpen.
