Bright lights not too bright for the Brewers or superfan Front Row Amy in Game 1 of NLCS

Those who thought the Los Angeles Dodgers and their massive payroll were going to waltz into Milwaukee and run over the Brewers were wrong. This is a team that won 103 games this season for the best record in baseball.

They're not going to forget how to play the game now that October and its bright lights have arrived. They have too much talent for that, and they proved that in a 2-1 win in Game 1 of the NLCS.

The lights aren’t too bright for the Brew Crew or their superfan, Amy Williams, better known as Front Row Amy. They showed up, proved that they weren't going to be run over and took a tight Game 1 while she went viral.

Brewers ace Jacob Misiorowski was on the mound. He gave up one run in 4 1/3 innings of work before turning it over to the bullpen to hold it down the rest of the way, which they did.

They only needed two runs and that's what they ended up with when the final out in the top of the ninth was recorded. All you have to do in October is win. It doesn’t matter how, just score more runs than the other team.

Misiorowski did his job. The bullpen did its job. The bats did their job. And Front Row Amy was behind the plate as she is for most Brewers games doing her job. That's winning baseball.

Now isn’t the time to pump the brakes. The work isn't finished.

The Dodgers are back-to-back World Series champs for a reason. You have to show up to each and every game in this series ready to match the intensity of the postseason.

I've seen enough baseball to know that showing up prepared for the intensity of the postseason isn't going to be a problem for Front Row Amy. She shows up each and every time out.

It's the rest of the Brewers that you have to worry about if you're a fan. That said, they're off to a good start in this series. They're not the same team that got swept by the Dodgers in last season's NLCS.
