CHICAGO – The Milwaukee Brewers open a three-game series with their Central Division rivals the Chicago Cubs for the first time in 2026 on Monday night, May 18 at Wrigley Field.
It’s the latest the two teams have first faced each other in a season since 2004, and the first time they’ll have met since the Brewers downed the Cubs, three games to two, in the National League Division Series last October.
Right-hander Brandon Sproat (1-2, 5.75) starts for Milwaukee while left-hander Shota Imanaga (4-3, 2.32) counters for Chicago.
