Justin Turner gave the Los Angeles Dodgers their first lead of NLCS Game 2 with a 2-run home run in the top of the 8th inning on Saturday.
Turner took a 2-0 pitch from Milwaukee Brewers reliever Jeremy Jeffress deep to left field for a go-ahead home run to make it 4-3. Jeffress threw Turner a splitter low and in, but the ball did not dive much, allowing Turner to get a hold of it.
JT! CLUTCH!

Turner went 0-for-5 with four strikeouts in Game 1 of the series, so Saturday’s big homer helped make up for his brutal game the night before.
