Brewers Set Roster for NLDS Against Cubs with Infielder Left Off

The 2025 NLDS marks the first postseason clash between the Brewers and Cubs, with Milwaukee securing home-field advantage after the best regular season record.

  • A best-of-five NLDS begins Oct. 4 at American Family Field, with Games 3 and a possible Game 4 at Wrigley Field on Oct. 8 and 9.
  • Coming off a narrow regular-season edge, the Chicago Cubs and Milwaukee Brewers face each other in their first postseason meeting despite a long divisional rivalry, with the Cubs winning the 7-6 series.
  • The Brewers set a 26-player NLDS roster with 12 pitchers, naming Freddy Peralta to start Game 1 while Rhys Hoskins was left off, and adding Vaughn, Bauers, Lockridge, Durbin, and Collins.
  • Fans will find watch parties statewide with the Harley‑Davidson campus event on Oct. 8 featuring a 135-inch TV, plus giveaways at bars including J. Leinenkugel's Barrel Yard and Waterfront Warehouse.
  • Milwaukee's patient offense will be tested by Chicago's strike-throwing pitching, while Michael Busch's.910 OPS against righties may prompt use of left-handed pitchers in the best-of-five NLDS.
