The Cubs lost two of three to the Brewers in Miller Park on their 2-7 season-beginning road trip. When it ended, the Cubs were 5½ games out of first place.
Since then the Cubs are 20-6 and have picked up 6½ games on the Brewers, who are just 15-14 in that time frame. This oughta be fun. For more on the fun, here’s Kyle Lesniewski, manager of our SB Nation Brewers site Brew Crew Ball.
The Brewers are riding high on a six-game winning streak and are finally starting to see the pitching come together.
