Zach Davies Is The Lifesaver For Brewers For Injured Gio.

After the 13-inning marathon that was Game 4 of the National League Championship Series, the Milwaukee Brewers were able to add a pitching reinforcement before Game 5 less than 15 hours later.

Gonzalez suffered a high ankle sprain fielding a ground ball in the second inning of Game 4, and exited the game one pitch later.

Major League Baseball approved the move on Wednesday morning, which per the rules means Gonzalez is ineligible for not only the rest of the NLCS but also the World Series as well, should the Brewers advance that far.

Losing Gonzalez in the second inning created a pitching scramble for the Brewers, who covered the final 12 innings with six relievers.
