r/baseball celebrates as the two-time champion Dodgers are swept out of the NLCS

The week's most-upvoted thread relative to its community's size: a whole league's fans enjoying one team's exit.

A text-only post announcing that the Los Angeles Dodgers had been eliminated from World Series contention went up minutes after Milwaukee finished a four-game sweep in the National League Championship Series. It became the biggest thread of our sweep relative to community size: about 32,900 upvotes and 2,400 comments in a 2.8-million-member subreddit.

The replies are mostly a party. The top comments point out that the Dodgers were swept at home, ending their hopes of a third straight title, by the same Brewers team they had swept in last year's NLCS, and that it came two months after the Dodgers traded for Skubal. Others joke that rival fans (one describes a Yankees fan and a Red Sox fan hugging) briefly found common ground. A smaller group of Dodgers fans argue the sweep was a fluke.

Brewers homer their way to a 3-0 NLCS lead over the Dodgers

One win from the World Series, against the team that swept them in last year's NLCS.

Jake Bauers and Garrett Mitchell hit back-to-back home runs off Blake Snell in the seventh inning to retake the lead, and Milwaukee beat Los Angeles 6-2 on Wednesday for a 3-0 series lead. Jackson Chourio had homered on Snell's first pitch of the game, and Bauers' two-run shot came on the 11th pitch of his at-bat. The two-time defending champion Dodgers had trailed 3-0 in a best-of-seven series only once before, in the 1966 World Series; only the 2004 Red Sox have come back from 0-3. Game 4 was Thursday at Dodger Stadium.

Brewers and Dodgers set up an NLCS rematch

Why the Brewers think this year's rematch will go differently.

The Milwaukee Brewers, the majors' top seed, eliminated the San Diego Padres 3-1 in Game 4 at Petco Park, winning the NLDS 3-1. Garrett Mitchell tripled and scored the go-ahead run and later caught a 406-foot Manny Machado drive, and the bullpen allowed no hits over five innings. The Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Atlanta Braves in four games. It's a rematch of last year's NLCS, which the Dodgers swept; the series opens in Milwaukee.
