Brewers return home for first time since the All-Star break
Coming off solid back-to-back series wins against the rival Minnesota Twins and Chicago Cubs out of the All-Star break, the Brewers now return home to take on the Miami Marlins to begin their second-half home schedule. Milwaukee faced Miami in Florida back in May, dropping two of three to the last-place squad.
The Marlins have an extremely depleted pitching staff, with Eury Pérez, Sixto Sánchez, Jesús Luzardo, Josh Simpson, Ryan Weathers, Sandy Alcantara, and Braxton Garrett all facing extended stays on th ..read more

Colin Rea stars, Brice Turang breaks slump with game-winning hit
Box Score
Rain delayed tonight’s start by about an hour and a half, and for most of the night, it looked like both the Brewers’ and Cubs’ offenses just decided not to show up at all. But this ended up being a tense, thrilling pitcher’s duel, and Milwaukee was able to prevail in an ugly, sweaty 1-0 win.
It looked early like the wait may have thrown off Cubs starter Jameson Taillon tonight, as he walked two batters in the top of the first inning, despite a BB/9 number of just 1.7 on the season. But Will ..read more

The 20-year-old rookie is starting to deliver on his promise
Jackson Chourio is as promising a prospect as the Brewers have ever had. His raw tools, particularly his speed and quick hands, are enticing enough to draw comparisons to last year’s MVP, Ronald Acuña Jr. In the minor leagues, he showed a tremendous ability to quickly adapt to a new level of pitching, despite being consistently way younger than his competition. After the Brewers signed him to the largest deal ever for a player with no major league experience, there was no financial incentive to keep Chouri ..read more

After a weekend series in Minnesota, the Brewers travel southeast along I-94 from the Twin Cities to Chicago.

Tobias Myers will get the start to make the first attempt for the season series win. Myers has struggled against the Cubs this season, posting a 7.00 ERA in two starts covering nine innings.
