The Milwaukee Brewers look to extend their grip on baseball's best record when they host the Arizona Diamondbacks on Wednesday, with Quinn Priester's remarkable 15-game winning streak leading the charge for a Milwaukee side that sits 4.5 games clear atop the MLB standings.
Arizona enters this third game of the four-game set fighting for playoff positioning, sitting 6.5 games out of the final Wild Card spot but coming off Lourdes Gurriel Jr.'s three-run blast in Monday's narrow 7-5 defeat.
With Priester (11-2, 3.44 ERA) opposing Ryne Nelson (6-3, 3.63 ERA) in what promises to be a pitchers' duel, the Brewers will be confident of maintaining their stranglehold on the top seed while the Diamondbacks desperately need a result to keep their postseason hopes alive.

Milwaukee Brewers vs. Arizona Diamondbacks preview
The Brewers sit atop the entire majors at 82-50, riding an incredible 15-game winning streak with Quinn Priester on the mound, while Arizona has clawed back to third place in the NL West despite trading away slugger Eugenio Suarez.
Christian Yelich powered Milwaukee to a 7-5 win in Monday's opener with two hits and two RBIs, giving him 29 homers and 90 RBIs as their primary offensive threat with Jackson Chourio still sidelined by a hamstring injury.
The Diamondbacks got a three-run blast from Lourdes Gurriel Jr. in that loss, but they face an uphill battle as they sit 6.5 games out of the final Wild Card spot with time running short.
Priester brings his sparkling 11-2 record and 3.44 ERA to the hill after allowing just one run in four innings against the Cubs, while Nelson counters with a respectable 3.63 ERA over his 18 starts.
Milwaukee's pitching staff ranks third in baseball with a 3.58 ERA and has been stingy at home, while Arizona's offense has struggled at times despite Corbin Carroll's 27 home runs.
The Brewers are positioning themselves for the top seed in the National League playoffs, making every game crucial as they try to maintain their commanding lead over the field.
