Game 4 of the Brewers-Cubs divisional series took place tonight.
The Cubs' goal? To stay alive and force an ultimate game on Saturday night. As for the Brewers, they wanted to get it over with as quickly as possible to join the Dodgers in the championship series. That series, in the Nationals, starts next Monday.
And at the start of the game, it was the Cubs who were hungrier. After trailing 0-2 in the series, they weren't about to let up.
In the first inning, Ian Happ took advantage of the fact that there was traffic on the paths to make it 3-0 via an important long ball. It quickly set the tone for the game, let's say.

There was some goal traffic afterwards on both sides, but the teams did their jobs (defensively speaking) to keep the score intact for as long as possible.
But it couldn't last. In the sixth inning, Matt Shaw made it 4-0… before Kyle Tucker, in the next inning, slammed a solo home run to make it 5-0.

The Cubs added a run in the bottom of the eighth inning (Michael Busch home run), but it made no difference: the Brewers had already lost the game. And on Saturday night, there will be a final game in Wisconsin.
If manager Craig Counsell were to beat his old club in Milwaukee, he'd be even more the #1 enemy in town.

- Good listening.
