The Milwaukee Brewers have already clinched the division title, and their NLDS matchup is already pretty much set in stone. The final week’s worth of regular season games are, in terms of the standings, meaningless for Milwaukee. The Brewers did have a chance, however, to end the St. Louis Cardinals’ long winning streak in the series opener between these two teams on Tuesday night, but as with each of the Cards past 17 opponents, they came up short.
Before the game, the Brewers scratched Willy Adames from the starting lineup after he dealt with some soreness to the quad which recently had him on the IL.
