Burnes, 11-5 in 28 starts, received 12 of the 30 first-place votes after leading the majors with a 2.43 ERA.

In a remarkable finish, Daniel Vogelbach came off the bench to hit a game-winning grand slam for the Brewers in the bottom of the ninth.

Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Corbin Burnes matched a major-league record with 10 consecutive strikeouts against the Chicago Cubs on Wednesday night.

The Brewers picked up help at first base Tuesday by trading with Toronto for Rowdy Tellez.

Before being activated Monday, the 29-year-old outfielder had been sidelined for three weeks with a lower back issue.

Brewers’ right-hander Corbin Burnes became the first starting pitcher since the 1800s to begin a season with no walks and 40 strikeouts.

The Milwaukee right-hander couldn’t keep the ball in the park two years ago. Now he’s one of the hottest pitchers in baseball through three starts.

The Brewers played so many must-win games in September, they won’t approach the wild-card game Tuesday against the Nationals any differently.

The Brewers were one out away from tying the Cardinals for first place Saturday but lost the game and probably Lorenzo Cain in the process.

Christian Yelich, the reigning NL MVP, is done for the year, but he does not believe his Milwaukee Brewers are done.
