The Brewers went 6-21 in August, the franchise’s worst month since joining the National League in 1998. The meltdown included a 12-game losing streak and four three-game sweeps at the hands of the opposition, including a pair to the Philadelphia Phillies. The streak was the second longest in Brewers’ history, topped only by a 14-game skid in May of 1994.
