The Brewers are riding high coming into Cincinnati. They’re on a seven-game winning streak, and Christian Yelich was named NL Player of the Week earlier today. They’ll try to keep that momentum going as they begin a three-game series against the Cincinnati Reds tonight.
Aaron Civale is making his third start back from the IL in tonight’s game. In his last start, he pitched into the sixth inning and allowed just one run on three hits and a walk, with four strikeouts. His pitch count has steadily climbed in each start, and he hit 79 pitches in Tuesday’s game against the Red Sox.
