Shohei Ohtani pitched 6 scoreless innings allowing only 2 hits and struck out 10 batters and hit 3 home runs as the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Milwaukee Brewers 5-1 to complete the sweep and advance to the World Series.

Joshua Hebburn continuing to carve out this really interesting, specific niche of micros that sneak up on you, that unfold & unfold and&unfold to keep revealing secrets inside, single sentences as tunnels, illusions, pinhole cameras looking at our giant world...
