The article predicts the outcome of Game 1 between the Dodgers and Brewers in the NLCS, focusing on Milwaukee's pitcher Jacob "The Miz" Misiorowski, who boasts a remarkable 1.80 ERA this season. Despite Misiorowski's dominance over the Dodgers, including striking out 27 batters across three appearances, the article highlights that Shohei Ohtani has managed to hit for power against him, but currently struggles with injuries and a slump at the plate. The piece concludes by suggesting betting on the Dodgers' team total under 2.5 runs at odds of +115 due to their recent offensive struggles.

Story summary
The Dodgers face a challenging start to their National League Championship Series (NLCS) match-up with the Brewers, as they prepare for Game 1 against the latter's ace pitcher, Jacob Misiorowski. The 24-year-old Misiorowski had an outstanding regular season, leading all pitchers with a 1.80 ERA and striking out an impressive 252 batters in just 167 innings pitched. Over three career games versus Los Angeles, including two starts, he's yielded only three earned runs over 17 innings while recording 27 strikeouts. The Dodgers' offense has struggled lately, averaging just 3.1 runs per game during a nine-game stretch. Their star player, Shohei Ohtani, who managed to hit against Misiorowski in the past, is currently hampered by injuries and has been underperforming at the plate recently, hitting below .200 over his last several games.
