• Brewers' Jake Bauers: Named NLCS MVP

  13D ago • By RotoWire

  Bauers was named the NLCS MVP after going 1-for-3 with a walk, a double and three RBI in Game 4 against the Dodgers on Thursday. The first baseman's ground-rule double during the fourth inning cut a 4-0 deficit in half, and he brought home another run with a bases-loaded walk in the fifth. There were a few strong options to be named series MVP for Milwaukee, but it's hard to argue against Bauers, who went 4-for-14 with three walks, a double, a homer and six RBI during the four-game sweep.

• Brewers' Jake Bauers: Launches game-deciding homer

  15D ago • By RotoWire

  Bauers went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run during Game 3 of the NLCS against the Dodgers on Wednesday. After working a 12-pitch walk to help chase Yoshinobu Yamamoto early in Game 2 on Monday, Bauers capped an 11-pitch at-bat with a two-run blast during the seventh inning Wednesday to erase a 2-1 deficit for Milwaukee. The first baseman's .261 average through seven playoff games this year doesn't jump off the page -- especially since Wednesday's homer was his first extra-base hit -- but he's also worked six walks and has delivered in key moments, especially in the NLCS.
