MILWAUKEE – Former Titans Justin Turner and Dylan Floro are off to the World Series, as the Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Milwaukee Brewers 5-1 in game seven of the National League Championship Series, Saturday evening at Miller Park.
For Turner, it'll be his second consecutive trip to the World Series after helping the Dodgers get there last year. He's now tied with Aaron Rowand for the most World Series appearances by any former Titan with two.
