The Cincinnati Reds and Milwaukee Brewers will be playing on their first postseason trip in their full season since 2013, and will face off at American Family Field on Saturday night.
Cincinnati won Friday night, winning the New York Mets’ defeat, seizing control of their own fate, for the ultimate National League wild card spot, and ahead of the tiebreaker. Meanwhile, the NL Central Champion Brewers are scoring the Philadelphia Phillies as they try to lock their home field advantage throughout the World Series.
Cincinnati will turn to All-Star left-hander Andrew Abbott (9-7, 2.80 ERA) and Southpaw Robert Gasser will make the Brewers’ seventh career start in Milwaukee with his first pitch set at 7:15pm.
