Kyle Tucker, signed by the Los Angeles Dodgers for $240 million, drew a lot of criticism early in the season for a rough start. He hit a two-run home run against the Atlanta Braves in the NLDS. The Dodgers got through the series.
But Los Angeles then lost NLCS Game 1 to the Milwaukee Brewers 2-1 on October 11. The Dodgers got to starter Jacob Misiorowski early, but the Brewers bullpen held on and closed it out to secure the win.
