The Milwaukee Brewers continued their strong spring training performance, achieving their fourth consecutive Cactus League win by defeating the Chicago White Sox 5-2.

Christian Yelich is slated to make his Cactus League debut on March 4 against the Cubs, with plans for him to play some left field. The team will also see nine players depart for the World Baseball Classic following Saturday's game against the Reds, impacting the roster temporarily.
Milwaukee will host Team Great Britain for a World Baseball Classic tune-up game on March 3, featuring Jacob Misiorowski's first spring start. Upcoming games include matchups against the Reds on Saturday and the Royals on Sunday.
