My my my… look who is back on The Summer Score board. The Milwaukee Brewers, who haven’t added to their Summer Score tally since August 6, have pulled to within 1 game of a playoff spot in September, which is worth one point. And seeing that they are just 1/2 game back of the Phillies, things could be getting very interesting in the last week of the season.
