Saturday’s winner-take-all matchup, set to unfold in Milwaukee, comes after the Cubs shut down the Milwaukee Brewers for a 6-0 victory in Chicago on Thursday night.
The Cubs are riding high after pulling themselves out of a pit this week. They were on the brink of elimination after dropping the first two games in Milwaukee. But a 4-3 victory on Wednesday energized them enough to claim another victory in Game 4.
The winner of Saturday’s game, which marks the 18th meeting between the two teams this season, will advance to the National League Championship Series (NLCS), where they will face the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Currently, Milwaukee has a 97-65 record overall and a 52-29 record in home games, while Chicago is 92-70 overall and 42-39 on the road.
The Brewers are 76-24 in games when they record eight or more hits, while the Cubs have hit 223 total home runs to rank third in the NL.
Thursday’s game is slated to begin at 7:08 p.m. CDT.
Ahead of game 4 on Thursday, excitement was building in Wrigleyville as fans flocked to the Northside for the big game.
Even some who don’t usually take part in the camaraderie had to gear up for a big win.
“You have to participate in the excitement when they win,” Cathy Lancaster, who owns Lily Pad Mahjong Parlor in Wrigleyville, said.
