Brewers take 2 of 3 from the Yankees to extend their lead over the Cubs in the NL Central
Keep bringing that magic number down
It was largely a successful weekend for the Milwaukee Brewers. The Crew took two of three games from the New York Yankees to extend their lead to three games over the Chicago Cubs in the NL Central.
Friday and Saturday saw a late offensive onslaught get the job done. Friday’s 8-2 win featured a three-run 7th inning and a three-run 8th inning. Saturday’s 9-2 triumph featured a three-run 8th inning and a four-run 9th inning. Better late than never!
Sunday was a kick in the teeth, as Corbin Burnes’ eight innings without allowing a hit was squandered by another poor performance from Andrew Chafin. The Yankees would collect a 4-3 win in 13 innings. Next up is a four-game series against the Miami Marlins.
