Brewers closer Jeremy Jeffress, who gave up the game-winning home run to Dodgers slugger Justin Turner in Game 2, said Turner "just got lucky."

And Jeffress said the same thing about Austin Barnes, who drew a bases-loaded walk in the seventh inning, after taking a 3-2 curveball from Jeffress.

"He just got lucky," Jeffress told reporters Saturday night.

The Dodgers rallied for two runs in the seventh and two more in the eighth to take a 4-3 win in Milwaukee and even the NLCS at 1-1. The series heads to Los Angeles for Game 3 Monday at 7:39 p.m. ET.

Jeffress' comments will rub some Dodgers and LA fans the wrong way. The righthander was understandably not happy after his second blown save of the postseason — he also blew a save in Game 1 of the NLCS against the Rockies — but he's not blaming himself for what happened Saturday night. He also surrendered a bloop single to Joc Pederson that loaded the bases in the seventh, and a soft infield single to Chris Taylor before Turner's game-winning, two-run homer.

JT! CLUTCH!

Jeffress conceded he left the pitch, a splitter, to Turner up in the zone.

“If I’m going to give up a hit, I’m going to give up one like that," Jeffress said. "If they hit a home run and it’s just something that’s left up? You can’t take nothing away from those guys over there. They’re professionals, like everybody else. But, like I said, just make a pitch. That’s all I’ve got to do.”

When a reporter asked if that meant Turner got lucky hitting that pitch out, Jeffress responded, "Dude, honestly. You seen the hits. I ain't gotta tell nobody. If I say it's lucky, it's lucky. Everybody sees the hits.

“I feel good, man. That’s the nature of the game. I can’t strike everybody out. I can’t make everybody hit a ground ball. I am human.”
