The Milwaukee Brewers head into Game 4 of the National League Division Series with a 2-1 lead over the San Diego Padres—and a chance to end a postseason road losing streak that has reached a major-league record tie. San Diego avoided elimination with a 4-3 win in Game 3. The Brewers collected 11 hits but scored only three runs, while Jake Cronenworth’s solo home run in the fifth broke a 2-2 tie. Manny Machado also drove in a run for the Padres. William Contreras went 3-for-4 and hit his second home run of the postseason, but Milwaukee could not close the gap. The loss extended the Brewers’ streak of postseason defeats on the road to 12, matching the longest such run in MLB history. A loss in Game 4 would give Milwaukee the record outright. The Brewers won the first two games at home, taking the opener 3-2 on Contreras’ seventh-inning homer before edging San Diego 4-3 in Game 2. Milwaukee’s Game 1 victory also featured an unusual play in the ninth: a potential go-ahead home run by Ty France struck the American Family Field roof and landed in Jackson Chourio’s glove for an out. Chourio came through again in the second game’s final at-bat to secure the win. Game 4 is scheduled for Wednesday, Oct. 7, at 9 p.m. Central in San Diego. If the series goes the distance, Game 5 is set for Friday, Oct. 9, at 3:30 p.m. in Milwaukee. Milwaukee earned the National League’s top seed and home-field advantage throughout the postseason after finishing 103-59, the best record in the majors and a franchise record. The team reached 100 wins for the first time. The Brewers built that success with a contact-and-speed approach rather than relying on home runs. They scored 832 runs, second-most in MLB, while hitting 154 homers—among the league’s lowest totals. Milwaukee led the majors in batting average and on-base percentage and stole 162 bases during the regular season. The postseason run has also brought visible support around Milwaukee, where landmarks have been lit in Brewers colors and banners have carried the rallying cry “Win Our Way.”
