Kershaw dominant, Dodgers beat Brewers
By BETH HARRIS
AP Sports Writer
LOS ANGELES —
Clayton Kershaw bounced
back from one of his worst
postseason starts with one
of his best, pitching the Los
Angeles Dodgers past the
Milwaukee Brewers 5-2
Wednesday to move one
win from a return trip to the
World Series.
The Dodgers took a 3-2
lead in the NL Champion-
ship Series, boosted by Max
Muncy’s go-ahead single in
the sixth inning. Kershaw
held the lead, scoring an
insurance run in the seventh
and then exiting.
Game 6 is Friday night
in Milwaukee. The Brewers
will start left-hander Wade
Miley, who walked Cody
Bellinger to open Game 5
before getting pulled in an
interesting piece of strategy
by manager Craig Counsell.
Lefty Hyun-Jin Ryu will go
for the Dodgers.
The Dodgers haven’t
been in back-to-back World
Series since losing to the
Yankees in 1977 and ’78.
They were beaten by Hous-
ton in Game 7 last year.
The teams reconvened
less than 15 hours after the
Dodgers eked out a 2-1 vic-
tory Tuesday night on Cody
Bellinger’s RBI single with
two outs in a 13-inning
game that lasted over five
hours.
Kershaw was well-rested
and masterful in allowing
one run and three hits over
seven. He struck out nine,
all on breaking pitches, and
walked two.
Kershaw recovered from
the shortest postseason start
of his career. He lasted just
three innings in losing the
NLCS opener while giving
up five runs — four earned
— at Miller Park.
“I don’t know if it was
that much better, just a little
bit better execution maybe.
Maybe I threw some more
curveballs today than I did
in Game 1,” Kershaw said.
The
three-time
NL
Cy Young Award winner
pitched in and out of trouble
in the third, when the Brew-
ers loaded the bases and
scored their lone run. Ker-

al League Championship Series baseball game against
the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday in Los Angeles.
shaw struck out Jesus Agu-
ilar to end the third, the first
of 13 consecutive batters
that the left-hander retired.
Curtis Granderson hit
an RBI double in the ninth.
Kenley Jansen, the Dodgers’
third pitcher of the ninth,
came in for the last two outs
and the save.
Brewers star Christian
Yelich, who nearly won the
NL Triple Crown this sea-
son, was hitless in four
at-bats. He is 3 for 20 with-
out an RBI in the NLCS.
The Dodgers’ offense
broke loose with five runs
over the fifth, sixth and sev-
enth innings that had the
sellout crowd of 54,502 on
its feet whipping blue tow-
els and cheering loudly.
The team that hit a fran-
chise and NL-leading 235
home runs in the regular sea-
son did it playing small ball
instead, driving in all but
one of its runs on singles.
Tied
1-all,
Muncy
grounded a 1-2 pitch from
Brandon Woodruff into left
field, scoring Justin Turner,
who led off with a single.
Pinch-hitter Yasiel Puig
singled to center with two
outs, bringing home Manny
Machado after he was hit by
a pitch from Corbin Burnes.
Los Angeles extended
the lead to 5-1 in the sev-
enth on Turner’s RBI sin-
gle that scored Kershaw,
who walked, and pinch-hit-
ter Brian Dozier’s RBI
groundout.
Kershaw has struggled
in the postseason during his
career, with his numbers
never matching his excel-
lence during the regular
season.
But his outing Wednes-
day nearly matched what
he did in Game 2 of the
NL Division Series against
Atlanta. Kershaw allowed
two hits over eight shutout
innings, struck out three and
walked none in the best post-
season outing of his career.
The Brewers led 1-0 in
the third on Lorenzo Cain’s
RBI double to deep center.
Milwaukee had gone
scoreless over the final eight
innings Tuesday and the first
two innings Wednesday.
UP NEXT
Miley pitched 5 2/3 shut-
out innings in Game 2 vs.
the Dodgers, allowing two
hits and walking none. Ryu
gave up two runs and six
hits in 4 1/3 innings in that
game. Ryu pitched seven
shutout innings in Game 1 of
the NLDS against Atlanta,
allowing four hits and strik-
ing out eight.
Canelo Alvarez inks $365M deal with streaming service DAZN
By BRIAN MAHONEY
AP Sports Writer
NEW YORK — Canelo
Alvarez is boxing’s new
$365 million man.
Alvarez has signed an
11-fight deal that his pro-
motional company says is
the richest athlete contract
in sports history, guaran-
teeing the Mexican middle-
weight champion at least
that much money to have
his fights shown on the
sports-streaming
service
DAZN, beginning with his
next bout.
Alvarez will move up in
weight to challenge WBA
super middleweight cham-
pion Rocky Fielding on
Dec. 15 at Madison Square
Garden.
A massive moneymaker
when he fought on pay-per-
view, Alvarez will
be able to be seen
for much cheaper
through the sub-
scription service
that launched in
the U.S. in Sep-
tember and now
features perhaps
the two biggest Alvarez
figures in boxing
in Alvarez and heavyweight
champion Anthony Joshua.
“We have No. 1 and
No. 2. They’re the two
most important fighters in
the world,” DAZN execu-
tive chairman John Skipper
said. “Canelo fighting on
DAZN, we believe that that
will help us attract some of
the other fighters, some of
the other premier fighters.”
Alvarez (50-1-2, 34
KOs) is coming off a victory
over Gennady Golovkin in
a
middleweight
showdown in Sep-
tember. That fight,
like most of box-
ing’s biggest, was
shown on pay-
per-view. It cost
$84.95 to be seen
in high definition.
And
while
planning his next
fight, Golden Boy Promo-
tions also needed a place
to put it. With HBO bow-
ing out of boxing after this
year, the company had talks
with Showtime, ESPN and
Turner Sports about televis-
ing Alvarez’s future bouts.
But Skipper made an
aggressive offer for DAZN
when he met with Golden
Boy about two weeks ago
and the deal was quickly
finalized.
“John came with the best
deal. John Skipper came,
he wasn’t playing games,”
Golden Boy President Eric
Gomez said. “He said, our
first meeting with him over
two weeks ago, he came to
our office and said, ‘I’ve
got a blank check, I’m not
leaving until we make a
deal.’ And he put his money
where his mouth is.”
Skipper said it wasn’t
quite a blank check, but
one that ensured Alvarez
wouldn’t be taking a pay
cut to leave pay-per-view.
He said Alvarez’s last three
fights generated 3.6 mil-
lion buys and nearly a quar-
ter of a billion dollars, mak-
ing him someone who can
be transformative to a sub-
scription service focused
largely — at least for now
— on combat sports.
“So I’ve got to find those
fans,” Skipper said. “They
are going to want to watch
his fights and they’re going
to get to buy them for a lot
less expensive than they did
before.”
It will cost them $9.99
a month for a subscription
in the U.S. Under the five-
year partnership, Golden
Boy also will put on up to
10 fight nights per year that
will stream live on DAZN
beginning in early 2019.
Gomez said Alvarez
is committed to fighting
11 times during the deal
and willing to fight any
of the contenders at 160
or 168 pounds. Alvarez
said for now his plan is to
return to 160 after the bout
against Fielding (27-1, 15
KOs), a British fighter who
appeared significantly taller
than Alvarez, who will be
trying to win a title in his
third weight class.
A third fight with
Golovkin would be a natural
after their draw and Alva-
rez’s narrow victory in the
rematch, but there would be
plenty more options at mid-
dleweight if they don’t meet
again.
Whoever he ends up
with, at least Alvarez knows
now where it can be seen.
“I’ve always said that
when one door closes
another one opens and
we’re very happy with this
new alliance that we’ve
made with DAZN,” Alva-
rez said through an inter-
preter. “Forget about what
the price is, the amount of
money that we’re making.
The most important thing is
that fans can enjoy this fight
at a very low price.”
