Every game the Milwaukee Brewers and San Francisco Giants have played this year has felt like a playoff clash, coming down to the wire with multiple hard-hit balls finding gloves (well, most of the time, the Avi Garcia misplay still hurts) and just one or two moments deciding entire games.
It would really be fun to watch if it wasn’t also anxiety-inducing. But at least this one went the Brewers’ way.
The Brewers got things started early in the first game of the latest meeting between these two teams against lefty reliever Jose Alvarez after scheduled starter Johnny Cueto had to be scratched due to COVID.
