The Milwaukee Brewers have struggled to score runs consistently throughout the regular season. Their average of 4.15 runs per game ranks in the bottom third of the National League and they’ve only scored more than three runs once in their past seven games, a stretch during which they have gone 2-5 against the Cardinals, White Sox, and Indians. The team hasn’t quite gotten the offensive production it was hoping for behind the plate, in right field, and specifically in the middle infield.
Milwaukee still has the best winning percentage in the National League with a 37-25 record entering today, and they figure to continue hanging around the playoff race during the rest of the season.
