What channel is Brewers vs Cubs on tonight? Time, TV, streaming

[ASFN Admin]

The Milwaukee Brewers face their rivals to the south for the second time this season when they host the Chicago Cubs in a three-game series June 26-28 at American Family Field.

The last time the two National League Central Division rivals saw each other, the Brewers won, 5-0, on May 20 to complete a three-game series sweep of the Cubs at Wrigley Field.

Since that time, the Brewers (49-29) have taken command of the Central, opening a 6½-game lead over the second-place Cubs (44-37).

The Brewers will send out their top two pitchers – basically ace No. 1 and ace No. 2 – in Jacob Misiorowski and Kyle Harrison in the first two games of the series.

Misiorowski has positioned himself as the early Cy Young Award favorite in the National League by going 8-3 with a 1.45 ERA and 138 strikeouts in 93 innings.

Harrison has matched Misiorowski’s output this season – except in strikeouts, of course – apart from a bad outing in that so-called ballpark in Las Vegas. He's 8-1 with a 2.50 ERA.

While the Brewers' starting pitching is set for the series – with Brandon Woodruff going Sunday – the Cubs rotation is in flux due to injuries that have pounded the rotation. They're undecided on their starting pitchers for the final two games of the series.

Here’s how to watch the Brewers' series against the Cubs:
