Jake Bauers and Garrett Mitchell hit back-to-back home runs off Blake Snell in the seventh inning of Game 3 of the National League Championship Series on Wednesday. Bauers' two-run shot gave the Brewers a lead after the Dodgers had gone ahead in the sixth inning, while Mitchell followed with a solo homer.
