Brewers avoid sweep, beat Giants 7-5

Benny Sieu-USA TODAY Sports The Brewers bats come alive early as they avoid a four game sweep. Box Score The Brewers entered this game attempting to avoid a four-game sweep by the San Francisco Giants. After being thrashed in the first three games, the Brewers still remained atop the division, but a four-game sweep would’ve been bad for morale, especially at home. Colin Rea got the start for the Brewers after being called up due to the injury to Wade Miley. Alex Cobb got the start for San Francisco. The Brewers bats got busy early, as Yelich drew a leadoff walk and...

Corbin Burnes must adjust his approach to rediscover success

Corbin Burnes must adjust his approach to rediscover success

Michael McLoone-USA TODAY Sports Predictability is hurting Milwaukee’s ace After a blowout loss to the San Francisco Giants on Friday, Corbin Burnes gets the ball on Saturday afternoon seeking to get the Brewers back on track. Handing the ball to Burnes in such a situation would typically be a source of comfort. That has not been the case this season. In 10 starts, Burnes owns a 3.97 ERA, 3.90 xERA, and 4.81 FIP. It would be easy to downplay those numbers as nothing more than a slow start were they not a continuation of a trend that began last summer. Since the start...

Major League Baseball said, indirectly, on Thursday that if these changes aren’t made, Milwaukee may need to find a new favorite spot to watch baseball. It was reported on Thursday that Major League Baseball could...
