Fresh off their demolition of the Washington Nationals over the weekend, the Milwaukee Brewers will continue their (almost) East Coast swing tonight in Atlanta with the first of three games against the Braves.
After the Brewers’ thorough undoing of the Nationals, they’re really starting to look like what the stats say they are at this moment: the best team in baseball. Milwaukee’s 38-14 scoreline over the weekend vaulted them to the top of the league in terms of run differential,* and they continue to hold the best record in the league at 67-44, two games in front of the division rival Cubs.
