The Brewers split a doubleheader with the Pirates. Neither game was a close one. They’ll regroup and go at it again tonight.
The Cardinals lost their game to the Dodgers, 2-1.
And just for fun, Mrs. Inertia and I went to last night’s Nationals-Diamondbacks contest. Washington prevailed 4-1 over first-place Arizona. The Nats are a sterling 3-0 in their games I’ve attended this year. Unfortunately, the other two were against the Brewers.
Milwaukee’s magic number goes down by 2. It is now 25, with 32 games left to play. The remaining-games-to-magic-number ratio is at 1.28; it will be fun to see if the Brewers can improve on that ratio.
Inertia Wins!
