Craig Counsell is within 6 games of .500 in his managerial career...be nice to get him up to .500 by the All Star break.

The Milwaukee Brewers (50-35) bring their brooms to Miller Park trying to sweep away the Minnesota Twins (35-47), looking to go into their big weekend series with the Braves on a high note.

Christian Yelich returns to start in the outfield, Nate Orf is at shortstop, Ryan Braun gets the day off, and Chase Anderson (6-6, 4.18) starts on the mound for Milwaukee. The Twins send out staff ace Jose Berrios (8-6, 3.52) as they try to stop a skid during which they've lost ten of twelve.
