The Dodgers let their bats do the talking in pounding the Reds, 14 – 6, in Cincinnati. Los Angeles bangs out 18 hits, with Rafael Furcal leading the way with a 3 for 5 performance; Matt Kemp and Andre Ethier add homers for the benefit of Hiroki Kuroda. Reds pitcher Aaron Harang benefits from a rare reversal of a call by the umpiring crew in the 4th. Batting with the bases loaded and 2 outs, he hits a low liner to Ethier in right field. Ethier traps the ball, but first base umpire Tim McClelland declares a catch and the inning over. After protests from manager Dusty Baker and first base coach Billy Hatcher, the umpires confer and reverse the call, giving Harang an RBI single that ties the game 4 – 4 at that point.

The Brewers fight off the resilient Diamondbacks to win the other NLDS, 3 games to 2, with a 10-inning 3 – 2 win. The Brewers take a 2 – 1 lead into the 9th, but for a rare time closer John Axford falters, allowing hits to Gerardo Parra and Sean Burroughs to start the inning, after which Willie Bloomquist sends the game into extra innings with a squeeze bunt. But the Brewers score the winning run in the 10th on a single and a steal by Carlos Gomez, followed by a game-ending hit by Nyjer Morgan off J.J. Putz. The Brewers’ win means that all four of this year’s Division Series winners were outscored by their opponents.
