 The only previous postseason series between these teams came in the 2018 NLCS, which the Dodgers won, 4-3, after a Game 7 win in Milwaukee. The Dodgers also won four of seven regular season meetings between the teams in 2019.

 Los Angeles won an eighth consecutive NL West title, posting an MLB-best 43-17 record. The Dodgers' .717 win percentage is the best by any MLB club in a season since the 1954 Indians went 111-43 (.721), and the best by a National League squad since the 1909 Pirates were 110-42 (.724).

 The Brewers are in the postseason for a third straight year, the longest streak in franchise history. They and the Astros (both 29-31) are the second and third teams ever to reach the playoffs with a losing regular season record; they join the 1981 Royals, who were 50-53 overall but made the playoffs by virtue of an AL West-best 30-23 record in the second half of the strike-shortened split season.

 After winning the NL batting title in both 2018 (.326) and 2019 (.329) -- and leading the league in OPS both years -- Christian Yelich hit just .205 in the regular season (sixth lowest among NL qualifiers), with a .786 OPS.

 Justin Turner's 35 career postseason RBI are the most in Dodgers history and fourth most most among active players, behind only Albert Pujols (54), Miguel Cabrera (38) and Nelson Cruz (36).

 Walker Buehler had a 1.31 ERA in four starts in Dodger Stadium this year, compared to a 6.19 ERA in four starts elsewhere. He is 1-1 with a 2.72 ERA in six career postseason starts.

The Los Angeles Dodgers hit the most home runs in baseball and produced the best staff ERA in the game, yet they will enter the opener of their first-round National League playoff series against the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday looking to get even better.
It is nice to be the best team in baseball with a 43-17 record and roster depth teams envy. But the Brewers will explore some zones of vulnerability.

Top-seeded Dodgers set to tackle sub-.500 Brewers

LOS ANGELES (AP)  The Los Angeles Dodgers' powerful lineup went mostly quiet against the Milwaukee Brewers. Still, baseball's best team in the regular season generated just enough offense and got plenty of help from the opposing pitcher.
Mookie Betts had two hits and an RBI and Corey Seager homered in the Dodgers' 4-2 victory in the opener of their NL playoff Wednesday night.
