Episode 39: Willy’s Homer Binge Highlights Push for a Bye

The Brewers went 6-1 to keep the hot Cubs 10 games back. Willy Adames homered in 5 straight games including number 29 on his 29th birthday, which also tied him with The Kid for most 3-run homers in a single season. Our version of The Kid is red hot as well and is in the thick of the NL Rookie of the Year race. The whole pitching staff was untouchable this week!
