League Championship Series Game 1 Victory for Wainwright and Milwaukee
If the Washington Nationals were expecting the pressure of the playoffs to get to Adam Wainwright, they underestimated the old man.

The Milwaukee Brewers got a strong start from the 37-year-old right-hander, who earned player of the game honors today. Wainwright threw 5 innings of 4-hit ball as Milwaukee won the contest 4-2 at Miller Park to take the lead in their best-of-7 series with the Nationals. The Brewers now lead 1-0.

The game hit a turning point in the bottom of the fourth inning, when the Brewers were trailing 1-0. Addison Russell delivered a two-out 3-run home run for Milwaukee, catapulting his team into the lead.

"We'll relax tonight and enjoy this win," said Russell.

The next game is scheduled for tomorrow in Milwaukee. Slated to start are Nathan Karns for the Washington Nationals and Collin McHugh for the the Milwaukee Brewers.
