What channel is Brewers vs. Cubs on this week? Time, TV, streaming, radio
A seat to a Milwaukee Brewers-Chicago Cubs game at American Family Field is often a hot ticket for a Cubbies fan.
Not only is it an easy drive from Chicago, the price is obviously more than slightly easier on the wallet than spending a few hours in Wrigleyville.
As a result, when Cubs fans invade the Brewers' house, they often refer to Milwaukee's ballpark as "Wrigley Field North."
But it's likely that Brewers fans may announce their presence with a bit more volume this week when Craig Counsell makes his first bus ride back home after leaving his managerial position in Milwaukee for the same spot with the Cubs.
Counsell's abrubt departure for the I-94 rival thanks to an $8 million annual salary was a bit too much for many Brewers fans to buy.
And while they're will certainly be less of them during the four-game series than usual, it's likely they'll have a more than a few words to say when their former manager emerges from the visiting dugout to make pitching changes and question calls during the four-game series.
Here's how to watch and listen to the games this week if you can't make it to the ballpark (or sold your seats to a Cubs supporter).
