Yes. And the Washington Nationals have also beat Milwaukee this year. What's your point?
Look at who they played over the past 5 weeks when they've won over 70% of their games: the Angels (three games), Devil Rays (eight games), Blue Jays (seven games), Royals (seven games), Orioles (seven games), White Sox (three games), Cleveland (three games) and Tigers (four games). All in all, that's only 17 games out of 42 against teams above .500.
Just 15 of their 37 remaining games are against teams currently under .500.
On the other hand, the Red Sox (who will be up 6 after tonight) have only 6 games remaining againts teams who are .500 or above - all the Yankees.
