\n<\/p>\n

One win is all that separates the Milwaukee Brewers<\/a> and their first trip to the National League Championship Series in seven years.<\/p>\n

They\u2019ll have three opportunities to secure that victory after the 7-3 thumping over the Chicago Cubs in Game 2<\/a> Oct. 6 at American Family Field put them up 2-0 in their best-of-five NL Division Series.<\/p>\n

The Brewers can first close out the Cubs in Game 3 on Wednesday, Oct. 8.<\/p>\n

Here’s what to know about Game 3 between the Brewers and Cubs and the upcoming postseason schedule:<\/p>\n

Do the Brewers play today?<\/h2>\n

No, the Brewers get a day off on Tuesday, Oct. 7, after playing Game 2 late on Monday night, Oct. 6, in Milwaukee.<\/p>\n

After winning Games 1 and 2 in Milwaukee by a combined 16-6, the series now shifts to Chicago.<\/p>\n

The Brewers hit three home runs in Game 2, including two 3-run bombs, as they quickly erased a 3-0 deficit. Andrew Vaughn hit the first three-run shot in the first inning to tie the game, then William Contreras clubbed a solo shot in the second before Jackson Chourio drilled a homer to deep center in the fourth to give the Brewers all the cushion they needed.<\/p>\n

When is the Brewers’ next game?<\/h2>\n

Game 3 of the Brewers-Cubs series is set for Wednesday, Oct. 8.<\/p>\n

A Brewers win closes out the series.<\/p>\n

Game 4, if necessary, will also be at Wrigley Field.<\/p>\n

Milwaukee Brewers Game 3 start time<\/h2>\n

Brewers-Cubs Game 3 is scheduled for 4:08 p.m. Oct. 8.<\/p>\n

It’s in the earlier time slot because the other NLDS series featuring the Los Angeles Dodgers<\/a> and Philadelphia Phillies<\/a> in LA has the nightcap slot for their Game 3.<\/p>\n

What channel is the Brewers game?<\/h2>\n

All of the Brewers-Cubs games for the NLDS are airing on TBS.<\/p>\n
