The Milwaukee Brewers are back on the road, as they’ll take a tour of the NL East to take on the Washington Nationals and Atlanta Braves.
First up is the Nationals, who Milwaukee swept just prior to the All-Star break. Washington sits at 44-64 this season, 17.5 games back in the NL East and 16 games ahead of the Rockies for the worst record in the NL. Their -110 run differential also ranks 28th in the majors, ahead of only the A’s and Rockies. Despite that, they’ve played .500 baseball since the break, winning two of three against the Reds & Twins, and dropping two of three to the Padres and Astros.
