NCLS: Dodgers Down Brewers, Win Back-To-Back National League Titles For First Time Since '77-'78, Get Crack At BoSox In Fall Classic

At Milwaukee:

Yasiel Puig belted a three-run sixth-inning home run on Saturday as the Los Angeles Dodgers downed the Milwaukee Brewers 5-1 on the road to take the deciding game of the National League Championship series and clinch the pennant in consecutive seasons for the first time since 1977 and 1978.

The Dodgers will face the Boston Red Sox in the World Series for the first time since 1916 when the BoSox (with a pitcher named Babe Ruth) won it.  The Dodgers were in Brooklyn at the time, of course.  The Fall Classic begins in Boston on Tuesday (5:06 PM Pacific Time on FOX).
