Brewers' Spectacular Double Play and Snell's Pitching Shine in NLCS Game 1

TL;DR Summary
In Game 1 of the NLCS, the Brewers executed an unusual double play involving a ball that hit the wall after a missed catch, leading to a force out at home and third base, despite the ball not being caught cleanly. The play was legal under baseball rules, which state that a ball hitting the wall after a missed catch is still in play, and the play was confirmed by officials. The Dodgers challenged the play but it stood, and the Brewers escaped a bases-loaded jam, ultimately winning the game.
