Garrett Mitchell’s game-saving catch spurs moment of déjà vu for Brewers’ foe Manny Machado

The Milwaukee Brewers advanced to the NLCS as the No. 1 National League seed for the second straight year by defeating the San Diego Padres, with Garrett Mitchell's catch against the center field wall in Game 4's eighth inning proving decisive in preserving a 3-1 lead. Mitchell's robbery of Manny Machado echoed a similar moment from the 2017 World Baseball Classic when Adam Jones made a catch on Machado at the same ballpark. The Brewers' victory over a hot Padres team featuring Fernando Tatis Jr. and Machado sets up a rematch with the Los Angeles Dodgers in the NLCS, a series the Brewers lost decisively last year.
