Series Recap: Brewers Sweep Cubs...Again

Prior to this season the Brewers had not swept the Cubs at Miller Park since 2005. It seems to me like they're making up for lost time.

What we saw this weekend was the Brewers imposing their will on an inferior opponent. The Brewers did not dominate any the games (in fact, they made a couple of them more interesting than they had to be), but for the most part the Brewers were in control of every game. The recipe for success was the tried and true formula of pitching, pitching, and a hitter on a hot streak, in the case Corey Hart.

While sweeping the Cubs is always fun, it's becoming more enjoyable to take down the Cardinals. The Crew can essentially clinch the division with a series win or sweep (hopefully a sweep), but it's nice to know that they would still have a commanding lead if the worst case scenario occurs (which I'd rather not even mention). 

But life is good right now. Let's see if it can get even better.
