Brewers Host Cardinals, One Win Would Keep Them In Second

After a day off Monday, the Brewers open a three game home series against Saint Louis tonight (Tuesday). And the Crew needs to win at least one game to avoid dropping to third place in the National League Central. Milwaukee is now two and one half games behind division leading Chicago after dropping two of three to the division leading Cubs. The Brewers are only two games ahead of the third place Cardinals who can return to .500 at 53-53 with a win this (Tuesday) evening. Right hander Jimmy Nelson starts for the Crew against Cards’ right hander Carlos Martinez.
