He sat in the nosebleeds for the Cubs' historic World Series. Now Quinn Priester can end their year
Quinn Priester, 25, makes his postseason pitching debut aiming to help the Brewers extend a 2-0 NLDS lead over the Cubs at Wrigley Field.
- On Wednesday, Quinn Priester makes his postseason debut at Wrigley Field as Milwaukee Brewers hold a two-game lead in Game 3 of the National League Division Series.
- Because Milwaukee needed starting pitching, the Brewers acquired Priester on April 7 to address injuries and gave him a career reset closer to home after trading him to the Pittsburgh Pirates.
- Priester went 13-3 with a 3.32 ERA this season, added a cutter thrown about 20% of the time, and allowed more than three runs in just two of 24 late appearances.
- Facing elimination, the Chicago Cubs must win three straight games and rely on Jameson Taillon in the best-of-5 NL Division Series, though only 10 of 90 teams have overcome a two-game deficit.
- Growing up in the Chicago area, Quinn Priester sat in the nosebleeds for 2016 Game 5 and comes from a family running Priester Aviation and Palwaukee Airport with mixed fan loyalties.
