Milwaukee Brewers vs. Miami Marlins game, score updates, magic number
MIAMI — The Milwaukee Brewers open a three-game series with the Miami Marlins tonight at loanDepot park and need one win to clinch a playoff spot.
The team’s magic number for the NL Central Division title is two. Any hopes of the Brewers potentially clinching the Central tonight fell by the wayside earlier today, when the Chicago Cubs shut out the Colorado Rockies, 6-0, at Wrigley Field.
First pitch for the Brewers’ game against the Marlins is 5:40 p.m.
Christian Yelich, who’d missed 12 of the last 13 games due to low back soreness, is in the lineup, batting leadoff and playing left field against his former team.
