Brewers Surge! Woodruff's Return & Nationals Series Heats Up!
Brewers vs. Nationals: A Weekend Series Preview
The Milwaukee Brewers are hosting the Washington Nationals at American Family Field for a three-game series, aiming to solidify their position before the All-Star break. Fresh off a series sweep against the Los Angeles Dodgers, the Brewers are riding high on momentum, fueled by strong pitching and defense.
The Nationals, on the other hand, are looking to find some positive momentum to carry into the second half of the season. They are currently at the bottom of the NL East.
Woodruff's Highly Anticipated Home Start
The highlight of the series is undoubtedly Brandon Woodruff's return to the mound at American Family Field. After a stellar performance in Miami, Woodruff is set to make his first home start in nearly two years. Fans are eager to see him replicate his success and continue his impressive strikeout streak. In his return on July 6th, Woodruff held the Marlins to one run on two hits with no walks and eight strikeouts.

Nationals' Pitching Woes

Key Players to Watch
For the Brewers, keep an eye on Andrew Vaughn, who recently extended his franchise record by collecting an RBI in each of his first five games. On the Nationals side, watch out for Nathaniel Lowe, Luis Garcia Jr., and William Contreras.
