Coming off of a tough series loss in Chicago, the Brewers will travel to Kansas City for a three-game set with the Royals. Kansas City is one of the surprises of the young season, sitting at 20-15 and in a virtual tie for second in a startlingly competitive AL Central. The Brewers, at 20-13, will look to stay atop the NL Central, where they lead the Cubs by percentage points.
Milwaukee has had a successful season so far, but they come into this series looking for some answers offensively and struggling to overcome depth issues on the pitching staff.
