Vaughn went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 3-1 win against the Cubs in Game 5 of the NLDS.

Vaughn broke a 1-1 tie with his solo blast to left field in the fourth inning. The Cubs were unable to respond as Milwaukee finished off the series-clinching win. Vaughn went 4-for-14 with two homers and four RBI over five NLDS games. He and the Brewers will next face the defending-champion Dodgers in the NLCS.

Suzuki went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Saturday in a Game 5 loss to Milwaukee in the NLDS.

Suzuki accounted for Chicago's only run with a solo shot off Jacob Misiorowski in the second inning. That long ball temporarily tied the game, but the Brewers scored twice more to emerge with the 3-1 series-clinching victory. Suzuki led the Cubs with five RBI over eight postseason games while knocking three doubles and three homers among his seven hits. He also scored four runs but posted a 1:10 BB:K.

Rea (0-1) was charged with the loss in Game 5 of the NLDS against Milwaukee on Saturday. He allowed one run on four hits and one walk while striking out two batters over 2.2 innings.

Drew Pomeranz started the game for Chicago and allowed one run in one inning. Rea entered in the second frame and got through two scoreless innings before serving up a solo homer to Andrew Vaughn in the fourth. That was the only run Rea allowed, but it was enough to saddle him with the loss as the Cubs managed just a single run. Rea finished the postseason having pitched in three games, giving up only one run over 7.2 innings despite yielding nine hits and posting a 3:3 K:BB.

Uribe notched a save Saturday against the Cubs in Game 5 of the NLDS, walking one batter and allowing no hits over two scoreless innings.

Uribe entered in the eighth inning with the Brewers holding a 3-1 lead. He walked the second batter he faced but didn't allow any other Chicago baserunners as he finished off the win and Milwaukee's first postseason series victory since 2018. This was Uribe's second appearance of the NLDS, and altogether he pitched three scoreless and hitless frames while posting a 3:1 K:BB. The right-hander should again have a critical high-leverage role for the Brewers in the NLCS against the Dodgers.

Misiorowski (2-0) earned the win over the Cubs in Game 5 of the NLDS on Saturday, allowing one run on three hits and no walks while striking out three batters over four relief innings.

Trevor Megill started the game for the Brewers, pitching a scoreless first inning. Misiorowski then entered in the second and gave up a game-tying solo homer to the first batter he faced (Seiya Suzuki). However, Misiorowski rebounded from that long ball and was able to keep the Cubs off the scoreboard for the remainder of his four frames, throwing a total of 54 pitches (37 strikes). The rookie phenom earned the win in two of Milwaukee's three NLDS victories, allowing just one run over seven combined innings while posting a 7:2 K:BB. He could play a big role again in the team's upcoming NLCS matchup against the Dodgers.

Manager John Schneider said Saturday that Bichette (knee) has resumed running the bases, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Schneider added that Bichette also began facing live pitching Friday, checking off two significant boxes necessary for him to be included in the Blue Jays' ALCS roster. Toronto has until Sunday to make the final call on his availability, and the team will likely see how he responds to Saturday's workout before finalizing the roster.

Megill will open Game 5 of the NLDS against the Cubs on Saturday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

The Brewers have allowed the Cubs to score in the first inning of all four games in the series so far, so manager Pat Murphy will send his All-Star closer to the mound to try to break that trend in the series finale. After Megill is pulled from the game, Jacob Misiorowski is expected to pitch multiple innings out of the bullpen.

Miller will start against the Blue Jays in Game 1 of the ALCS on Sunday, Shannon Drayer of SeattleSports.com reports.

The Mariners were forced to use three members of their rotation during Friday's 15-inning marathon against Detroit, so Miller will take the mound Sunday on just three days' rest. The 27-year-old threw just 55 pitches during his last appearance in Game 4 of the ALDS on Wednesday, so he may still be able to pitch fairly deep into Sunday's game despite his short recovery period.

Pomeranz will serve as the Cubs' opening pitcher Saturday in Game 5 of the NLDS versus Milwaukee, Maddie Lee of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Pomeranz has struck out five batters across five scoreless innings in the postseason so far, and the Cubs will now entrust him to collect the first several outs of Saturday's winner-take-all matchup. He most likely will come out of the game after the first inning, at which point Shota Imanaga could take over as the Cubs' bulk reliever.

President of baseball operations Jerry Dipoto said Saturday that Woo (pectoral) is expected to be included on the Mariners' ALCS roster, Adam Jude of The Seattle Times reports.

Woo threw a bullpen session Friday as the latest step in his recovery from right pectoral inflammation, and the Mariners seemingly are pleased enough with his progress to feel comfortable including him in their pitching plans for the ALCS against Toronto. Dipoto noted that the 25-year-old righty likely won't be available for the first few games of the series, so his postseason debut will presumably come after the series moves to Seattle for Games 3 and 4.
