The pitchers joined the hitters in a slump, and the Brewers stumbled to their longest losing streak in seven years. It's over now, but Milwaukee now finds itself outside of a playoff spot. Brewers reporter Curt Hogg and host JR Radcliffe try to make sense of it and whether it can be written off as simply a particular bumpy stretch for an otherwise quality team. JR chats with Jason Alexander, one of the bright spots in the recent malaise. Plus: Hoby Milner, Christian Yelich leading off, the first hiccup for Josh Hader, the return of some key players and loss of others. Remembrew When takes a look back at Team Streak's 1987 nadir and Curt discusses the former Brewers pitcher who might have been even better in the age of the "pitching lab."
