Milwaukee Brewers (95-67) @ Chicago Cubs (95-67)

Jhoulys Chacin (15-8, 3.56) vs. Jose Quintana (13-11, 4.09)

Tiebreaker at Wrigley Field for the National League Central crown. Big payoff for coming out on top. Winner guaranteed home-field advantage throughout National League playoffs. Loser has to play in tomorrow's single-elimination wild-card game.

T1 — Symbolic play? Yelich hits high chopper toward SS. Javy fields it but can't quite throw Yelich out. Javy comes up short, which is what might happen in MVP race with Yelich.

By the way, Cubs won season series with Brewers 11-8. That's why this game is at Wrigley. This game does count as a regular-season game. Stats count, too (which is important for Yelich, who could potentially win Triple Crown with great performance today).

Not sure how many times Wilson has to struggle in close games for Maddon to stop inserting him in these types of situations. It practically never works out.
