Brewers, Cardinals no strangers to last-week drama

The Milwaukee Brewers and Cardinals are no strangers to last-week drama in the National League Central Division.

On Sunday, the Brewers will start the final day of the season one game behind the Cardinals for a playoff spot, which is the position they were in last year although both teams did make the playoff field. The Cardinals won the Central title by winning on the final day of the season against the Chicago Cubs, avoiding a possible playoff for the division title with the Brewers.

Milwaukee wound up losing for the third game in succession in Colorado to finish two games behind the Cardinals and falling into a wild-card game, which they lost to eventual World Series champion Washington.
