The Opponent
The Brewers won the NL Central with an overall record 92-70. Between their record and the Cubs fading at the end of the season, they won their division with a solid nine game lead. Much like the Diamondbacks, they had a steep slump mid season, only winning at a .407 clip in the month of May, before slowly improving to .500 over June and July, and finished strong over .600 during August and September.
This will be the third series that the Diamondbacks have played against the Brewers this season, and so far, it’s gone in favor of Arizona.
