Brewers Magic number is 1. Brewers might clinch before they play, tomorrow night, as the A's and Cubs play early, tomorrow afternoon.
Drive in, back in, whatever. The Crew will be in!!!!
@MichiganPacker2 posted:The Brewers lost tonight to a 42 million dollar starting pitcher and to two guys guys who hit home runs making 47 million between them. Those three guys make 89 million. The Brewers entire active roster makes 71 million.
And now face a pitcher in Game 3 (Aaron Nola) that the Phillies signed this offseason for 7 years and 172 million dollars.
Another 6:40 CT start for Wednesday's game. ESPN does not indicate national TV coverage.
Gamecast gives the Crew a 57.1% chance of winning
Freddy vs their expensive pitcher look to be fairly evenly matched:
| Player | W-L | ERA | WHIP | IP | H | K | BB | HR |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 12-8 | 3.62 | 1.20 | 181.1 | 170 | 174 | 47 | 28 | |
| 11-8 | 3.75 | 1.24 | 163.1 | 139 | 184 | 64 | 25 |
