With Milwaukee now 3.5 games ahead of the Cubs for the top spot in the NL Central, a postseason bid may truly be in play. However, getting through teams like the Dodgers and Rangers, Milwaukee’s next two opponents, is something the Crew will have to do come playoff time, so seeing them now can be a good test for the Brewers. Coming off a sweep against the White Sox, the Brewers will hope to keep that momentum going as they head to Los Angeles.
Lineups
Christian Yelich has been the team leader this season at the plate, and his resurgence has propelled the Brewers forward through June and July.
