The Milwaukee Brewers clinched a playoff spot last night with their win over the Cincinnati Reds. Not to be content with the Wild Card, the Brewers have set sight on the NL Central crown. If Milwaukee could sweep Cincinnati today, the Brew Crew would move within one game of St. Louis for the NL Central lead. With Ryan Braun, Lorenzo Cain, and Mike Moustakas getting the day off as well as Luis Castillo getting the start for the Reds, it would likely be an uphill battle for Milwaukee.
Cincinnati got things started in the bottom of the first.
