As Crow-Armstrong and the Cubs avoided elimination Wednesday to force NLDS Game 4, fans were buzzing about the team's resilience and clutch performance. Despite the Brewers striking first with a Sal Frelick sacrifice fly to bring in Christian Yelich for a 1-0 lead, the Cubs stormed back with a dominant opening frame.

The Brewers are one game away from advancing to the National League Championship Series for the first time since 2018, and they'll look to complete the sweep on the road in Chicago on Wednesday.

Offense has not been a problem for the Brew Crew. The aforementioned Chourio is hitting .714 through the first two games of the series going 5-7 with nine total bases. Christian Yelich is batting .500 (4-8) and William Contreras is 4-9 (.444).

The reality confronting each team is that just two teams have ever come back from down 0-2 in the NLDS to win the series. The first was the Los Angeles Dodgers in 1981 (the labor stoppage led to a one-off playoff format that year),

The Milwaukee Brewers chose not to bring one of their more experienced postseason hitters into the series with the Chicago Cubs.
