Kyle Tucker, signed by the Los Angeles Dodgers for $240 million, drew a lot of criticism early in the season for a rough start. He hit a two-run home run against the Atlanta Braves in the NLDS. The Dodgers advanced past Atlanta.
But Los Angeles then dropped NLCS Game 1 to the Milwaukee Brewers 2-1 on October 11. The Dodgers tagged starter Jacob Misiorowski early, but the Brewers bullpen kept Los Angeles off the board to earn the 2-1 victory.
