Baseball has its Final Four. The Cubs’ comeback from down 0-2 to the Brewers in the Division Series ultimately fell short, as despite winning their two home games at Wrigley to stay alive, they couldn’t

Christian Yelich and Freddy Peralta are the only Brewers remaining from that club, but Milwaukee will likely have a lot of otherwise-neutral fans throughout the country to see if someone can take down the defending champions.
