Analyzing past games data reveals that the Brewers have been on an impressive winning streak. Their bats have been particularly hot, with a batting average of .273 against the Mets and an even more scintillating .364 in another game.

Fielding is another area where Brewers haven't given much away; flawless fielding percentages (FPCT) across games indicate solid defense backing up their pitchers effectively.
