Milwaukee Brewers prepare for Cubs series after Reds loss

The Milwaukee Brewers are navigating a challenging stretch in the NL Central, recently dropping a series to the Cincinnati Reds. The pitching staff faced significant struggles during their road trip, highlighted by a difficult outing from Kyle Harrison, who allowed multiple runs early in a game that contributed to the Reds securing a series win.

Despite these setbacks, rookie right-hander Logan Henderson has been a bright spot for the Brewers, maintaining a 2.48 ERA through fifteen starts. The team currently holds an 88-56 record, maintaining a seven-game lead over the Chicago Cubs in the division standings.

The Brewers are now set to host the Cubs for their final regular-season showdown. The matchup features high-scoring offenses, with Milwaukee ranking fifth in OPS and Chicago ranking first. Key pitching matchups for the series include Robert Gasser facing Matthew Boyd and Logan Henderson facing Kevin Gausman.
