Brewers Sweep Cubs, Extend Lead | Sports News

The Brewers crush the Cubs 8-6 in a dominant sweep, extending their NL Central lead to 10 games. Christian Yelich blasts a three-run homer, Jackson Chourio and William Contreras add more long balls, and Logan Henderson pitches five sharp innings with six strikeouts. Despite a late Cubs rally fueled by walks and extra-base hits, Milwaukee holds strong. Gausman struggles, surrendering seven runs in four innings, while Henderson’s solid performance keeps the Brewers atop the majors in wins. Both teams idle Thursday, with the Cubs heading to Pittsburgh and the Brewers hosting Cincinnati — no starters named yet.
