It was a prime chance for the Brewers today. The Rockies had lost to the Giants 4-0 earlier in the day. The Cubs trailed for their whole game and wound up losing 8-1. A win would put the Brewers into a tie for the second wild card and within 2 1⁄2 games of the division lead. Unfortunately, they could not take advantage of it.
The game started off well enough.
