CHICAGO -- They face each other eight more times, beginning with a quick two-game series at Wrigley Field that starts Tuesday, as the National League Central race between the Chicago Cubs and Milwaukee Brewers is beginning to come to a head.
Will the experience the Brewers gained in last year's race, combined with being a deeper team, pay off? Or will the two-time defending division champs, and 2016 World Series champions, prevail once again?
Three games separate the Cubs and Brewers -- thanks to a walk-off grand slam by Chicago's David Bote on Sunday night -- while the home team the next two days has four games in hand.
