Trailing the St. Louis Cardinals 6-1, they clawed their way back, tied the […]

The Milwaukee Brewers bounced back from being swept by the Texas Rangers to win the series opener against the St. Louis Cardinals. On Saturday, Milwaukee sent Jacob Misiorowski to the mound.

The St. Louis Cardinals have been painfully mid in 2025, that much is clear especially after they suffered an 8-3 loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates on Tuesday night.
