Below, we'll give you all the details you need to know about how to watch this game.

Chicago leads all of baseball in almost every meaningful offensive category, and Crow-Armstrong sits right at the center of that production.

The Cubs lead MLB in home runs, RBI, on-base percentage, slugging percentage and OPS, and Crow-Armstrong leads the team with 38 home runs and 91 RBI.

Over his last 10 games, he has gone 14 for 45 with seven home runs, making him the biggest power threat in this lineup heading into this divisional game.

Milwaukee counters with one of the sport's stingiest pitching staffs, ranking second in ERA, third in WHIP and second in strikeouts.

That kind of staff has shut down plenty of lineups this season, which is why Crow-Armstrong's power stands out as the one matchup Milwaukee's shutdown staff can't fully account for.

Milwaukee's pitching staff does not hand out many scoring chances, which makes Suzuki's supporting punch behind Crow-Armstrong that much more important.

Suzuki is second on the Cubs with 24 home runs and 80 RBI this season, and in a game where Chicago may need to cash in on limited opportunities, his run production profile stands out.

Scoring against Milwaukee's staff has been difficult all year, evidenced by a .221 opponent batting average and a .658 opponent OPS this season.

Chicago still owns the league's best team OPS at .773, and Suzuki's production against a staff built to suppress it will be a key factor in whether the Cubs' offense holds up on the road.
