The Milwaukee Brewers rallied for three runs in the eighth inning to beat the Chicago Cubs 4-3 at home, becoming the first team in Major League Baseball to reach 89 wins this season.

Milwaukee trailed by one run after seven innings. With no outs and runners on second and third in the eighth, Jackson Chourio hit a go-ahead single that cleared the bases. Christian Yelich followed with a sacrifice fly, completing the three-run inning that decided the game.

The Brewers now have an 89-56 record and a .614 winning percentage. They remain firmly atop the National League Central and could receive a first-round playoff bye and advance directly to the Division Series.

Chicago’s Pete Crow-Armstrong collected two hits, including his 41st home run of the season, and stole two bases. He has 41 homers and 35 steals, putting him on course to pursue a 40-homer, 40-steal season, a milestone achieved by only six players in MLB history, according to the source.
