The Brewers have already clinched the NL Central title again, but they only hold a three-game lead over the Dodgers. Their plan is to maintain the best record in MLB to secure home-field advantage throughout the playoffs. The Brewers won 97 games last season; this season, if they maintain their winning pace, they could reach 100.
The Brewers took Wednesday's game 5-4 against the Pirates, with Antonio Senzatela recording his 11th win in relief. Megill also stepped up to record his 28th save of the season. Brice Turang hit his 34th double of the season, and Yelich delivered a game-winning RBI single in the seventh inning.
The series at PNC Park will conclude Thursday around noon. The Brewers also took Game 1 5-1, ending the Pirates' winning streak. This victory also serves as revenge for Milwaukee against Pittsburgh, who proved to be a difficult opponent for them in July. They've now won the last five games.

Our Pittsburgh Pirates vs Milwaukee Brewers Prediction
The Brewers were favored at -217 and -135 for Games 1 and 2 of this series, but Sunday's game is considered a close one. The Brewers will use left-hander Kyle Harrison, who has been quite hittable lately; he allowed 4 earned runs in 3.2 innings in his last start, a Brewers 12-8 loss to the Reds.
Interestingly, in 4 of Harrison's last 5 starts, one of the two teams scored 10 or more runs. As for the Pirates, their O/U record this year is 78-68.
Our prediction for Pirates vs Brewers is: Over 8 runs.
