The Milwaukee Brewers didn't exactly cloak themselves in glory during a 3-4 stretch against the Chicago Cubs and Cincinnati Reds last week, but with the same teams heading into American Family Field (starting Sept. 7), the Brewers' eight-game lead in the Central heading into last week has only been trimmed to seven.
The Brewers only really need to stave off a sweep at the hands of the Cubs to still feel comfortable with their division lead heading into the weekend; even one win should keep things relatively calm. The Brewers could easily clinch a playoff spot on the homestand, although it won't be the first two days against the Cubs.
The division will probably have to wait until the Brewers' final road trip.
Here's what to know about the three-game series against Chicago that begins on Labor Day.
All three games will air on Brewers.TV and AM-620 WTMJ radio. The game will also air on FOX on Tuesday.

After last night's extra-inning heroics, the Brewers have now won three straight series to start the month of August. They're in San Diego tonight for the first of three against the Padres, who enter having won seven of their last 10.
On the mound for Milwaukee will be rookie right-hander Logan Henderson, who's pitched to a 6-1 record and 2.70 ERA over 10 starts this year. He's allowed more than two earned runs in just one of them. San Diego will counter with right-hander Casey Mize, who's made one start for the Padres since they acquired him just before last week's trade deadline. Mize's Padres debut didn't go particularly well, as he was tagged for eight runs in 3 1/3 innings. He'll look to bounce back against a Brewers lineup that has scored more than four runs just twice this month.
As for tonight's lineup, manager Pat Murphy has elected to shake things up. Veteran stars William Contreras and Christian Yelich, both of whom have struggled at the plate for well over a month, will hit sixth and seventh. Murphy clarified before the game that the move isn't "meant to be motivating, it's meant to be what's best for our team right now." Both Contreras and Yelich will get the opportunity to keep trying to break out of their slumps, but they won't be doing it from the heart of the order.
Brice Turang leads off tonight, followed by Jackson Chourio, Jake Bauers, and Andrew Vaughn, who's playing third base in the absence of Joey Ortiz. Batting fifth, just ahead of Contreras and Yelich, is Garrett Mitchell, who's been struggling himself lately (.122 average over his last 49 at-bats). Rounding out the lineup are Luis Lara, who made two incredible catches in last night's game, and David Hamilton.
You can catch tonight's game on Brewers.TV, WTMJ 620, and the Brewers Radio Network. First pitch is set for 8:40 p.m.

Former Dallas Cowboys quarterback and current CBS Sports ***** yst Tony Romo has been arrested on suspicion of operating a vehicle while under the influence in Wisconsin.
Romo was pulled over at 6:18 CDT in Milwaukee on Thursday, July 23, according to NBC News, where he was arrested after allegedly failing a sobriety test. He was going southbound on Interstate 43. Taken into custody, Romo has since been booked and released with a court date currently scheduled for September 21, which would coincide with Monday night of the NFL's Week 2 slate.
The top CBS matchup that weekend is expected to be the Pittsburgh Steelers visiting the AFC-champion New England Patriots. Romo's arrest came just hours after he'd wrapped an interview with NBC's affiliate WTMJ.
For those who may need a refresher on Romo's career, the quarterback played for 13 seasons in the NFL, all with the Dallas Cowboys, beginning in 2006. Romo has worked alongside announcer Jim Nantz as CBS's lead NFL broadcasting crew.
Romo is originally from Wisconsin, having grown up in Burlington, and was visiting to play in the 2026 Wisconsin Amateur Championship golf tournament, which has become a yearly tradition for the athlete. "It is as tough as you are going to play. I think in almost any golf tournament. You get the best guys around, the competition, and then the guys who work with the WSGA — they are really special people," Romo told WTMJ.
