In order to bounce back tonight, the Padres will need a great performance from their star player Fernando Tatis Jr. He is only 3-17 at the plate this postseason, so he will try to improve his offensive play this evening. Notably, Tatis Jr. has struck out five times in the playoffs this year. The Brewers are looking to close out the series with a victory tonight, which will require a great performance from their outfielder Jackson Chourio. He leads the team with four RBI in the postseason, and he recorded the game-winning two-RBI single last game.
