Particularly brutal was the Brewers' seventh, when they had second-and-third with no outs, and the bases loaded with one out, and didn't score. The previously red-hot Christian Yelich, who did not have a good series, struck out against lefty Jonny Venters, and after an intentional walk to Jesus Aguilar, Ryan Braun grounded into an inning-ending double play.That's right, the Team Formerly Known as the Milwaukee Braves walked a current All-Star to pitch to a past Most Valuable Player, and it paid off.
Meanwhile, the Cubs were being no-hit by the Washington Nationals into the seventh inning on Friday, picked up one run on a bases-loaded walk, and somehow managed to win, and on Sunday, the Cubs were being shut out into the last of the ninth by the Nationals and picked up an improbable win.
Don't look now, but the St. Louis Cardinals have edged past the Pirates and into the wild-card picture. What's it going to be, Old Style, Budweiser, or Miller?
