Man, just when it felt like the Brewers offense was starting to hit somewhat of a stride, things have fallen back to earth lately. After last night’s series-opening loss to the Rockies, Milwaukee finds themselves in a four-game losing streak in which they’ve scored seven total runs.
Part of that could be attributed to another rash of injuries. Though they were able to weather the storm for much of the month, just like they did under similar circumstances in April, the loss of one of their primary outfielders and two main infielders felt like it was finally catching up to them.
