Keys to Victory<\/h2>\n\n\nFor Chicago:<\/strong> The Cubs will need their pitchers to perform well. Manager Craig Counsell’s strategy will be crucial, aiming for a pitcher to stay on the mound for at least three innings. The decision of which pitcher to use will be key in this game.\n\nFor Milwaukee:<\/strong> The Brewers will look to score runs, and they might need more home runs than the Cubs to win. If Imanaga pitches for the Cubs, that could be an advantage for the Brewers.\n\n\n
