Stressful week before the all-star break and a conversation with Jahmai Jones (07.10.2023)

Milwaukee Brewers Microbrew

The all-star break is upon us, with Devin Williams and Corbin Burnes headed to Seattle. The last week before the break was memorable for a lot of reasons, but it ends with a key series win over Cincinnati. Host JR Radcliffe and Brewers reporter Todd Rosiak look at the Reds as a challenger, the thrill of Elly De La Cruz and the importance of Milwaukee's 1-0 win Sunday. Plus, a look back at the first half: Christian Yelich's resurgence, deep struggles at positions that usually yield offense and a pitching staff that has held it together despite numerous challenges. Abner Uribe has arrived throwing triple-digit gas. The Brewers have begun making their draft picks, starting with Wake Forest third baseman Brock Wilken (a break from tradition in one respect). And Cubs manager David Ross thinks the Brewers are cheating with their roof.
Remembrew When looks back at the one time a Brewers player stole all three bases in an inning, and then JR sits down with Jahmai Jones, a newcomer this week who had a memorable first at-bat with the Brewers, when his three-run double helped the Brewers battle back to tie after facing a 6-0 deficit.
