Though the Cincinnati Reds snapped their 14-game winning streak and kept them from sweeping a fifth straight series, the Brewers are anchored in the No. 1 spot on all MLB power boards this week. Here are a few national observations why:

The Reds snapped the Brewers' franchise-record 14-game winning streak by turning the tables on Milwaukee with a 3-2 win in the 10th inning.

On the other side of the ball, the Brewers pitching staff completed a "hidden" perfect game by retiring 32 consecutive batters between Friday and Saturday's games. That streak was broken up by Reds outfielder TJ Friedl singling off starter Quinn Priester. That, too, qualified as a new franchise record, according to Elias Sports Bureau.
