Coming off a solid road trip in which they secured series wins against both the Giants and Diamondbacks (with a chance to sweep Arizona on Sunday), the Brewers take on another heavyweight opponent in the Phillies beginning Monday in Milwaukee with a chance to clinch the NL Central at home.
Philadelphia held Milwaukee’s offense to just two runs over three games in a sweep in early June, though Milwaukee’s pitching staff also held the Phillies to just seven runs. At that time, the Phillies were the top team in the league with a 44-19 record while Milwaukee sat at 36-26.
