Brewers rotational issues continue, fall to Rockies

By

Freddy Peralta

The Milwaukee Brewers activated Freddy Peralta before Thursday’s game, giving him the start against the Colorado Rockies.  Things didn’t go so well, leaving one to wonder if Peralta will lose his spot in the rotation.

Peralta allowed four runs in the first inning and nine runs (six earned) in four innings on the way to a 11-6 Brewers loss to the Rockies.  After winning the first two games of the series, the Brewers lost the last two, having to settle for a four-game split.

The Brewers going with Brandon Woodruff, Corbin Burnes and Freddy Peralta in their starting rotation has backfired for the first month of the season.  In 16 outings, 15 of which were starts, have a combined 7.68 ERA. [Read more…]

Brewers fall, Yelich is sidelined

By

The Milwaukee Brewers dropped their series finale in New York against the Mets on Sunday, 5-2 at Citi Field.  In the process, star Christian Yelich had to leave the game in the fourth inning with lower back discomfort that he sustained while running the bases.

Brewers manager Craig Counsell said he didn’t think Yelich’s issue was series enough to think about the injured list but thought it would likely keep him out of tonight’s series opener against Colorado at Miller Park.

After trailing 2-0, Mike Moustakas clubbed a two-run homer in the seventh inning to tie the game 2-2. [Read more…]

Milwaukee Brewers starter Jimmy Nelson was unable to keep the string of outstanding recent efforts on the hill intact Thursday in a 5-2 loss to the New York Mets.

Nelson (5-5) allowed eight hits and two runs in his five innings of work, however, it was his struggles against lefthanded bats that cause him the most trouble. Mets centerfielder Curtis Granderson led off the game with solo home run, then doubled and scored in the third.

The Brewers were able to battle back to within 2-1 after Kirk Nieuwenhuis scored on an Hernan Perez infield single in the seventh. The inning would be the last for Mets starter Bartolo Colon (5-3), who scattered eight hits and allowed the one run.

Reliever Corey Knebel, fresh off a stint on the 15-day disabled list with an oblique strain, entered for Milwaukee, but two runs on three hits to make it 4-1.

Scooter Gennett brought Milwaukee back within two in the eighth with a RBI single, capping a career-best 4-for-4 effort at the plate. Gennett has hits in six of his last eight at bats and is hitting an impressive .440 in the month of June. [Read more…]

Already trailing by a handful of runs, the Milwaukee Brewers lineup took a big hit in the sixth inning of a 5-1 loss to the Mets at Citi Field.

Centerfielder Carlos Gomez was at the plate with a runner on and no one out in the top of the sixth facing a 5-0 deficit when New York starter Noah Syndegaard threw a 96-mph fastball and struck Gomez in the left side of his head.

The pitch caught Gomez in the earflap of his helmet and send him face down into the dirt around home plate. Gomez would leave the game, doing so under his own power. He was diagnosed with a facial contusion, but did not sustain a concussion.

The Brewers (13-25) fell behind early when starter Wily Peralta allowed a leadoff home run to Curtis Granderson. New York (22-16) added another run in the third inning, and three more in the fourth, all off Peralta. The righthander was seeking a second win in his last three starts, but falls to 1-5. [Read more…]
