Anonymous
The Milwaukee Brewers begin their final regular-season homestand Friday against the St. Louis Cardinals after reaching 100 wins for the first time in franchise history and clinching the National League’s No. 1 seed and home-field advantage throughout the postseason. Milwaukee enters at 100-59 and leads the season series 8-2; St. Louis is 77-82 after Thursday’s 2-1 loss to Pittsburgh, a result that guaranteed the Cardinals’ second consecutive losing season. Brewers left-hander Robert Gasser, coming off seven scoreless innings, is set to start the opener against Cardinals right-hander Michael McGreevy, who is 7-9 with a 3.84 ERA. The three-game series runs Friday through Sunday at American Family Field as Milwaukee shifts its attention to postseason preparation.
