**Brewers One Win Away From NLCS After Dominating Cubs in First Two Games**

**MILWAUKEE** – The Milwaukee Brewers are on the cusp of their first National League Championship Series appearance since 2018 after a commanding 7-3 victory over the Chicago Cubs in Game 2 of the NL Division Series at American Family Field. The win gives the Brewers a 2-0 lead in the best-of-five series.

Fueled by three home runs, including a three-run shot from Andrew Vaughn and a towering blast from Jackson Chourio, the Brewers erased an early Cubs lead to secure the win. William Contreras also contributed with a solo home run.

The series now shifts to Chicago’s Wrigley Field for Game 3 on Wednesday, Oct. 8, at 4:08 p.m. CT, where the Brewers will have their first opportunity to close out the series. The game will be broadcast on TBS.

A Brewers victory would send them to the NLCS to face the winner of the Los Angeles Dodgers-Philadelphia Phillies series, with Milwaukee hosting Games 1 and 2.

**Remaining Series Schedule:**

* Game 3: Wednesday, Oct. 8, at Chicago, 4:08 p.m. CT (TBS)
* Game 4 (if necessary): Thursday, Oct. 9, at Chicago, 8:08 p.m. CT (TBS)
* Game 5 (if necessary): Saturday, Oct. 11, at Milwaukee, 3:38 p.m. CT (TBS)

The Brewers are looking to capitalize on their momentum and secure their spot in the NLCS, bringing postseason excitement to Milwaukee.
