Milwaukee Brewers (20-17) News
The Milwaukee Brewers are in a slump. Over their last six series they have lost five of them. During the month of May they are 2-7. They have been losing in various ways including getting blown out, not executing the little things, and also blowing a few late inning leads or surrendering a late run in a tie game. Their next two series are against teams below .500, so they will be looking to end this skid and reclaim first place in the National League Central.
