The lead
June 26, 2026 - Milwaukee - William Contreras paced the offense at 8 hitting FP, Jacob Misiorowski earned a 20 pitching FP start, and the Milwaukee Brewers beat the Chicago Cubs 6-2 at American Family Field, per the Associated Press recap on CBS Sports.
How the game turned
Misiorowski set the tone from the mound while Contreras and the Brewers' lineup built a lead Chicago could not erase. The Cubs scored twice but fell well short of Milwaukee's total.
Pitching and matchup notes
Misiorowski worked into the middle innings with 20 pitching FP on the AthX Engine card. Milwaukee's bullpen protected the lead against a Cubs lineup that struggled to keep pace.
Bats that changed the board
Contreras' 8 hitting FP paced the Milwaukee offense. The Brewers scored six times behind a balanced attack at home.
AthX Engine fantasy angle
AthX Engine stacks pitching and hitting on the same card when a 20 FP start pairs with catcher production. Misiorowski and Contreras register on separate daily boards, separate from dynamic pricing.
