LOS ANGELES — Facing elimination and another left-hander to start Game 4, Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts shook up his lineup, returning Shohei Ohtani to the leadoff spot.
With southpaw Shane Drohan opening the game for the Milwaukee Brewers, Roberts has six right-handed hitters in his lineup with Miguel Rojas starting at second base and Enrique Hernandez at third.
Right-hander Tyler Glasnow is starting Game 4 for the Dodgers as the back-to-back World Series champs fight to stay alive in this best-of-seven National League Championship Series.
The Dodgers have managed just seven runs and are batting .165 (15-for-91) through three games in the NLCS.
