Milwaukee holds a commanding 3-0 lead in the National League Championship Series with one win away from the World Series.
## Dodgers' history of resilience
The Dodgers have faced adversity to win World Series titles in each of the past two seasons despite a 3-0 series lead.
## Game 4 timing
NLCS Game 4 starts at 8 p.m. ET/7 p.m. CT/5 p.m. PT on Thursday at Dodger Stadium, airing nationally on FS1/FOX One.
## Historical context
Teams with a 3-0 lead have won 41 out of 42 best-of-seven postseason series, with 32 ending as sweeps.

> We have yet to complete anything
## Starting pitchers
Brewers: TBD; Dodgers: RHP Tyler Glasnow with a 3.60 ERA in three career elimination games.
## Brewers' pitching options
Left-handers Kyle Harrison and Shane Drohan and right-hander Chad Patrick have been on the roster but have yet to pitch in any of the Brewers' first seven games.
## Dodgers' pitching strategy
The Dodgers' 7-0 postseason record when Glasnow pitches is more of a quirk than anything else, but he has a 1.73 ERA in four starts and three relief appearances.
## Lineups for Game 4
Brewers: Jackson Chourio, Brice Turang, William Contreras, Jake Bauers, Christian Yelich, Garrett Mitchell, Cooper Pratt, Sal Frelick, David Hamilton.
## Dodgers' lineup adjustments
The Dodgers are sticking with Shohei Ohtani despite his lingering right biceps and left knee issues that have likely played a role in his extended slump.
## Bullpen considerations
Brewers' lefty Aaron Ashby figures to play a prominent role in Game 4 if the score is tight after right-handed setup man Abner Uribe and left-hander DL Hall struggled in Game 3.
## Injuries and health
Dodgers: Ohtani (right biceps, left knee), Freeman (right knee) managing lingering injuries; Brewers: none.
## Key takeaway

Dodgers lead NLCS 3-0 but Brewers could become first team swept then to sweep same team a year later.
