Brewers Struggle as Bullpen Crumbles

Brewers crumble in a 8-2 loss to the Cubs, as Chad Patrick unraveled in the sixth, surrendering four runs on 30 pitches with just two strikeouts. Manager Pat Murphy admits Patrick’s been inconsistent lately, with his ERA spiking alarmingly in just weeks. The offense went cold after Jackson Chourio’s early homer, producing just five hits total. With a brutal 18-game-in-17-days stretch looming, the bullpen’s under fire — and Brandon Woodruff takes the mound in the series-deciding game, with NL Central playoff implications hanging in the balance.
