Brewers Face Cy Young Aces, Aim for History

About this episode

The Milwaukee Brewers are set for a historic matchup against the Detroit Tigers and Pittsburgh Pirates, facing off against reigning Cy Young winners Tarik Skubal and Paul Skenes. If both pitchers take the mound, the Brewers will become the second team in MLB history to face back-to-back Cy Young winners. The last team to do so, the Boston Red Sox, lost both games. The Brewers, with some overlap in players from that Red Sox team, aim to rewrite history and gain the edge with their lineup. The games could make history tilt in the Brewers favor if they flip the past results.

It's April 23rd, I'm Cory with the story, and this is MLB News today, your AI-powered baseball briefing. Milwaukee Brewers got a historic matchup coming up over the next two days. They're facing Detroit Tigers ace Tarrick Skubal on Thursday in Pittsburgh Pirate Star, Paul Schienes on Friday. If both hurlers take the mound as planned, the Brewers become just the second team in Major League history to battle reigning Sai Young winners in. Back-to-back games. Last year, the Boston Red Sox were the first to pull that off. They dropped a close, six-to-five decision to the Tigers on May 14th, where Skubal struck out 11 despite giving up five runs. Two days later on May 16th, the Braves topped them four to two behind Chris Sale's seven strong innings, that Red Sox squad had some overlap with today's Brewers. Infielder David Hamilton suited up for Boston as a pinch runner in both those losses. Created to Milwaukee this off-season, he shrugged it off recently with a quick, lucky us vibe when reminded.

Now the Brewers aim to rewrite the script after Boston's sweep. Skubal dominated with his strikeouts and Sale kept it tight, but Milwaukee's lineup might have the edge this time around. Heads up for these games, they can make history till in the Brewers favor if they flip those past results.
