CHICAGO -- The Brewers got payback on Monday against the Cubs. A year ago, the Cubs rallied from 5 1/2 back at the All-Star break to win the National League Central. This year, the Brewers surged in the second half and capped an extended season by winning Game 163, 3-1, at Wrigley Field to claim the division title.
The Cubs now will host the NL Wild Card Game on Tuesday night at Wrigley Field, facing the loser of Monday's NL West tiebreaker between the Rockies and Dodgers at Dodger Stadium.
