Gosh darn it, those Saturday losses just ruin my mood. Optimism took a blow as the Brewers enter the second to last week of the season, with a sad clunker of a game that leaves Milwaukee 2.5 games behind the Chicago Cubs for first in the NL Central.
But the Brewers turned in a 4-2 week, and that included taking two of three from the Cubs at Wrigley. The Crew scored one run total in their two losses, so better pitching wouldn’t have made a difference. Besides, the bullpen (not including players named Soria or Barnes) was lights out.
