Summary

Today’s word of the day is ‘busted’ as in the Milwaukee Brewers as in 14 wins as in the NL Central as in best in baseball. The streak is finally over, but the Brewers had a shot. Friday a comeback. Saturday a comeback. Sunday a comeback, but blew it in the 9th! Now it’s time for a 5-game series against the Chicago Cubs. HUGE for both teams! (12:30) The Cubs fans booed Kyle Tucker on Sunday. He didn’t run out a ground ball. He hasn’t homered since July 1. The Brewers are up 8 games in the division. He’s a free agent after the season. (20:40) Zack Wheeler’s season is likely over. A blood clot in his shoulder and it’s over. Terrible news for the team. (29:30) The Dodgers swept the Padres. San Diego had the division lead for 1 days and the Dodgers took it back. (34:30) Review: Everything’s Going to be Great. (39:30) Victor Robles is going to get suspended. Has to! He launched his bat at a pitcher during a rehab game. (45:20) What is going on with the Arizona Diamondbacks? A new report says teammates are fed up with Ketel Marte. That he was in the Dominican Republic after the all-star break… not at his home that was robbed in Arizona. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
