SAN DIEGO -- The Brewers have three remaining games against the Reds to line things up the way they’d like for the postseason and make 2025 the best regular season in franchise history.
Jackson Chourio pulled back a three-run home run in the first inning and singled to spark the go-ahead rally in the seventh to help send the Brewers to a 3-1 win over the Padres at Petco Park on Wednesday, giving Milwaukee 96 victories to match the club record -- with three more chances to break it.
