Christian Yelich Benched for Brewers in NLCS Game 1 vs. Dodgers

Milwaukee Brewers veteran slugger and team captain Christian Yelich is out of the starting lineup for Game 1 of the NLCS against the Dodgers. With dominant left-handed ace Tarik Skubal starting for Los Angeles, manager Pat Murphy opted for righty-swinging Andrew Vaughn at designated hitter. Yelich starred in the NLDS against San Diego, going 5-for-14 with a double, two steals, one RBI, and two runs, and will likely make an appearance off the bench later in the game.
