For as much as these past two games have absolutely stunk, a win today could be devastating for the Brewers chances at the Wild Card this season. Because when we all go to bed tonight, they’ll be either 2.0 games behind the Cubs or 4.0 with no head-to-head matchups left.
That’s a potentially enormous swing. Hopefully, the Cubs deliver.
