TLDR: Milwaukee improved to a franchise-record 95-57 on Christian Yelich's go-ahead double, and Trevor Megill says nobody's resting over the final 10 games.
Nobody's easing up. Megill made that clear afterward, saying the Brewers are still "playing tooth and nail" with two weeks left, and Pat Murphy has said the team will use the stretch to "find out about some other people" out of the bullpen while still chasing seeding. Milwaukee is also already selling the finish line to its fan base, announcing postseason ticket on-sale dates and a "Rally for October" watch party outside AmFam Field on Sept. 22, complete with a Q&A featuring past and future Brewers.
The one real question mark heading into October is Kyle Harrison. He was scratched early against Pittsburgh, exiting after 1.2 innings and 5 runs (4 earned) on a night that capped a brutal recent stretch, and beat writers around the team have started pointing to a health issue rather than a mechanical one. Foul Territory even ran an Eno Sarris breakdown suggesting Harrison simply isn't right physically right now.
Foul Territory@FoulTerritoryTVKyle Harrison's alarming performance lately leads @EnoSarris to believe he's not healthy...
Harrison, for his part, isn't hiding from it, telling reporters flatly, "I'm not not going to give in. Not going to give up." But with Milwaukee already handing Jacob Misiorowski the ball for Sunday Night Baseball in Baltimore and Logan Henderson quietly building one of the best runs to start a career since 1893, the Brewers have options even if Harrison can't find it in time. Add in Jackson Chourio still chasing a third straight 20-20 season with parts of nine games to do it, and Milwaukee is trying to close the regular season on every storyline at once: a record chase, a health scare, and a park full of fans already thinking about October.
