An extremely important series is coming up for the Chicago Cubs against the second-place Milwaukee Brewers who are breathing down their necks. What seemed like a comfortable four-game lead last week is now down to one going into Tuesday’s game. If the Brewers sweep, they will be in first. The Cubs have to win one to guarantee staying in first after this series.
Heading into this series, there were some key players that hope to say hot while there are others who want to pick it up a bit. Since this is such a big series they want everything working: offense, starting pitching, relief pitching and defense.
