MILWAUKEE — You might have noticed that the Brewers can’t lose, that they’ve been hands-down better than the Cubs — again — for the past two and a half months, and that despite their small-market status and their meager budget to spend on players, they’ve put together, incredibly, the best damn record in baseball.

They rallied for a 3-2 win in the opener of a weekend series against the boffo-spending Mets and $765 million man Juan Soto and now have won seven straight games, 10 of 11 and — for the love of Gouda, this shouldn’t even be possible — 46 of their last 62 since May 25.
