The Brewers are showing some fight under new manager Craig Counsell, who is 2-3 since taking over when Ron Roenicke was fired. Chicago is in town with lefty Travis Wood, who is 1-3 with 7.52 ERA in four career starts at Miller Park. Brewers RF Ryan Braun, who hit his sixth homer in the ninth inning Friday, is 9-for-27 with four doubles and two homers against Wood. Wood has a 7.36 road ERA this season and last year was 5-7 on the road with a 5.47 ERA. The bullpen is also a growing concern for Chicago, which squandered leads in two of its three losses in a four-game series at St. Louis this week. The Brewers are 19-9 in Kyle Lohse's last 28 home starts and the Cubs are 10-27 at Milwaukee, so grab the home team.
