Miller Park - Milwaukee, WI
Thursday and Friday 8:10, Saturday 7:10, Sunday 2:10

So Far in 2011:  If the season were to end tomorrow, the Phillies would face the Diamondbacks and the Braves would face the Brewers in the two National League Division Series.  Quite honestly, of the other three teams most likely headed for the postseason, the Brewers scare me the most.  These two teams met up way back in April with the Phillies dropping two of three at home.
