‘A Dirty Play by a Dirty Player’: The Brewers Have Had It With Dodgers Star Manny Machado

This is all you need to know about how egregiously Dodgers shortstop Manny Machado violated the code of conduct among players Tuesday night: he was called out harshly by not just one of his peers but the best player on the Milwaukee Brewers, Christian Yelich. “The guy showed the whole world right now his true colors,� Yelich told me after the Dodgers outlasted Milwaukee, 2–1, in 13 innings to even the National League Championship Series at two games each. Machado scored the winning run, but this game will stick to him like flypaper because of how he clipped the leg of Milwaukee first baseman Jesus Aguilar while running out what should have been a routine out.
