Home field does matter in baseball.
The Milwaukee Brewers eeked out a 3-2 extra inning victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks to win a NLDS series at Miller Park. The first playoff series win for the Brewers in 28 years.
Nyjer Morgan was the extra inning hero, hitting an up the middle base hit off J.J. Putz that scored Carlos Gomez from second.
Ryan Braun went 2 for 3 and Yovanni Gallardo toughed out 6 innings when he didn't have his best stuff.
