The Milwaukee Brewers are sitting pretty in the NL standings, up 2.5 games on the Philadelphia Phillies for the top seed in baseball with just three games to play. While the Brewers enjoy a Thursday off-day before their closing series with the Cincinnati Reds, a Phillies loss to the Miami Marlins this evening would give Milwaukee the one seed without having to win a single game for the rest of the season.
That said, the Brewers still have something to play for. Not only may the team need a win or two to officially lock up the top seed in the National League, but winning just one game against the Reds would give the 2025 Brewers the best regular season record in franchise history.
