Dodgers' Will Smith Speaks On Refusal To Challenge Key Pitches For Yoshinobu Yamamoto

In one of the most shocking moments of the postseason, the Milwaukee Brewers chased Yoshinobu Yamamoto in the third inning of Game 2 of the National League Championship Series. Yamamoto recorded just eight outs, and a taxing 36-pitch third inning ended his day. In that inning, he had a six-pitch at-bat with Brice Turang with one on and one out. Turang worked a walk, but there were some close pitches in that at-bat after Turang went down 0-2. Will Smith did not challenge two really close pitches and Turang walked. The next batter, William Contreras, flew out in seven pitches.
