The Story in 60 Seconds

Milwaukee's bullpen trio of Trevor Megill, Abner Uribe, and Aaron Ashby has powered the Brewers to an NLCS matchup against the Los Angeles Dodgers. During the regular season, the three relievers combined for a 2.65 ERA and 247 strikeouts across 210 1/3 innings. They continued their dominance in the NLDS against the San Diego Padres, tossing 12 2/3 of 19 bullpen innings while conceding only one unearned run.
