As you've likely heard, the Brewers haven't been any good lately. Tonight's near no-hitter by Jaime Garcia was their seventh straight loss. It's the 42nd time in franchise history the Brewers have lost this many games in a row, and the first time since a nine game losing streak in May last year.
The Brewers have had 12 winning seasons in franchise history. They had a losing streak of seven or more games in six of them.
