Suter struggles, Brewers drop Wildcard opener to Dodgers

October 1, 2020 By Bill Scott

Baseball’s best team didn’t dominate with their bats on Wednesday night, but the Los Angeles Dodgers did take advantage of Brent Suter’s early wildness to beat the Milwaukee Brewers 4-2 in their National League Wildcard series opener in Los Angeles.

Corey Seager homered in the win, but the Dodgers jumped out in the first inning by hardly having to swing the bat.  After a Mookie Betts double to start, Brent Suter proceeded to walk-in a pair of runs.  Suter had to start for the Brewers with the teams top starter (Corbin Burnes) and top reliever (Devin Williams) both sidelined by injury.

Suter needed 32 pitches to get out of the first inning and ended up working just 1 2/3 innings before manager Craig Counsell was forced to go to his bullpen.  Suter left after allowing three runs and three hits, with five walks in.

The Dodgers third run came off of Suter in the second when Chris Taylor doubled and scored on Betts’ second double of [Read more…]

Brewers fall to Reds, drop series in Cincinnati

September 24, 2020 By Bill Scott

The Cincinnati Reds have scored 14 runs in their three-game series with the Milwaukee Brewers.  All of those runs were the result of the home run.  The Reds went yard three times on Wednesday night to pull out a 6-1 win over the Brewers, taking the series three-games-to-two.

The Reds pulled a game in front of the Brewers as the loss dropped Milwaukee back a game under .500 at 27-28 with five games left to play.  The Brewers open a 5-game series against the Cardinals in St. Louis tonight.

Reds ace Trevor Bauer, pitching on short rest, tossed eight innings of 1-run, 4-hit ball.  He walked just one and struck out 12 Brewers while improving to 5-4 on the season.

Adrian Houser (1-6) took the loss, allowing 4 runs (3 earned) on five hits with a walk and five strikeouts.  Two of the five hits allowed were home runs. [Read more…]

Brewers continue playoff push, knock off Reds

September 23, 2020 By Bill Scott

Eric Sogard

Eric Sogard’s playing time had dwindled considerably in the past few weeks, but given an opportunity on Tuesday night, Sogard delivered to help the Milwaukee Brewers pull out a much-needed win.

Sogard doubled twice, including a shot to left that broke a 2-2 tie and gave the Brewers a 3-2 victory at Great American Ballpark.  It moved them into a wildcard playoff spot with six games left to play in the regular season.

Orlando Arcia and Tyrone Taylor also drove in runs for the Brewers.  Taylor’s came with a solo home run in the fifth.

The win also moved the Brewers into a tie with the Reds for third place in the NL Central, 5-games behind the division leading Chicago Cubs.  They’re just a half game behind the second place Cardinals, who are 4 1/2 games back.  The Cubs clinched a playoff spot, despite falling 3-2 to the Pittsburgh Pirates on Tuesday night.

Brett Anderson pitched six innings of two-run, four-hit ball to earn the win, improving to 4-3 on the season.  He recorded seven strikeouts, his highest total since Sept. 15, 2015 against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Devin Williams followed with two innings of scoreless relief, striking out five.  Josh Hader retired the Reds in the ninth for his 11th save of the season.

The Reds scored both of their runs in the first inning on a Nick Castellanos home run to center.

With the series tied 1-1, the all-important rubber game is Wednesday night.  Adrian Houser (1-5, 5.33) pitches for the Brewers, facing Cincinnati’s Trevor Bauer (4-4, 1.80).  First pitch is set for 5:40 p.m.

Brewers offense blows up in Detroit

September 10, 2020 By Bill Scott

Corbin Burnes

The Milwaukee Brewers have had plenty of opportunities to score runs over the last week but struggled to come up with the big hit to get it done.  They made up for it all in one game on Wednesday in Detroit.

The Brewers unleashed a 21-hit attack, clubbing five home runs and setting a franchise record with 13 extra base hits in a 19-0 win over the Tigers.

The bottom of the Brewers order did a lot of the damage too.  Orlando Arcia and rookie Tyrone Taylor had four hits each.  Luis Urias had three hits and five RBI and Jacob Nottingham added a two-run homer.

Jeff Gyorko hit a pair of solo home runs and Ryan Braun homered and drove in three runs.

The offense was just half of the winning equation.  Brewers right-hander Corbin Burnes put together his best outing of what is becoming a rock solid shortened season.  Burnes allowed just one hit over seven innings with no walks and 11 strikeouts.  He improved his record to 3-0 and saw his ERA drop to 1.99.

The Brewers are off on Thursday and open a big weekend series against the rival Cubs at Miller Park.

Brewers fall as Hader’s streak comes to an end

September 6, 2020 By Bill Scott

With the game tied 3-3 in the ninth, the Milwaukee Brewers called on their closer, Josh Hader to keep the game deadlocked.  But for the first time this season, Hader allowed a hit, in fact he allowed two as the Cleveland Indians pulled out a 4-3 win at Progressive Field.

The Indians Oscar Mercado had a leadoff double in the ninth and took third on a wild pitch before scoring on a Cesar Hernandez single to win it.

Hader hadn’t allowed a hit in his first 12 games, covering 11 2/3 innings and 47 batters.

The Brewers scored first, in the fourth inning when newcomer Daniel Vogelbach ripped a double to right to score Keston Hiura. [Read more…]

The Detroit Tigers ran their winning streak to six games, rolling to a 12-1 win over the Milwaukee Brewers on Tuesday night at Miller Park.  The Tigers moved above .500 (17-16) with the win, but the win was costly.  Outfielder JaCoby Jones suffered a fractured left hand when he was  hit by a pitch from Brewers reliever Phil Bickford in the eighth inning.  Jones is expected to miss the rest of the season.

Victor Reyes had four hits and five RBI in the win as the Tigers, who finished 47-114 a year ago, moved closer to a playoff spot in the American League.

Christian Yelich provided the Brewers with their only run, clubbing his ninth home run in the sixth inning.

Brewers starter Josh Lindblom (1-3) gave up four runs and six hits in five innings.  He became the first Brewers pitcher to hit the 100-pitch mark (101) this season.

To save the bullpen in a rout, the Brewers used infielder Orlando Arcia in the ninth inning.  He allowed two runs and two hits, including a home run.

The Brewers and Tigers wrap up their two-game series at Miller Park on Wednesday night.  Adrian Houser (1-3, 4.36) goes for the Brewers.  Spencer Turnbull (3-2, 2.97) gets the start for Detroit.

Arcia’s pinch hit leads to Brewers victory

September 1, 2020 By Bill Scott

Orlando Arcia

Orlando Arcia’s two out, pinch-hit single in the eighth inning gave the Milwaukee Brewers a 6-5 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Monday night at Miller Park.

Ben Gamel led off the eighth with a double and eventually scored on Arcia’s hit as the Brewers took three of four in the series from Pittsburgh.

The Brewers went with a bullpen by committee approach, giving lefty Brent Suter the start.  He went three innings and allowed one hit, a two-run homer off the bat of Erik Gonzalez in the third inning.  Suter had retired the first eight batters of the game before walking Pittsburgh’s Cole Tucker.

Keston Hiura gave the Brewers a 5-3 lead in the fifth, clubbing a leadoff home run off of Pirates starter Trevor Williams.  Hiura has four home runs in 10 games against the Pirates this season and 10 in 26 career games against Pittsburgh.

The Pirates tied the game 5-5 in the sixth on Jose Osuna’s two-run single off of reliever Freddy Peralta, but the Brewers would go ahead in the 8th.

Devin Williams (3-1), who was the fourth of five Brewers pitchers, struck out four and didn’t allow a hit in 1 1/3 innings for the win.  Josh Hader bounced back from his five walk performance to work the ninth for his eighth save of the season.  Hader has yet to give up a hit this season.

The Brewers open a two-game series against the Detroit Tigers at Miller Park on Tuesday night.  Josh Lindblom (1-2, 6.31) gets the start for the Brewers.  Michael Fullmer (0-0, 8.79) goes for the Tigers.

Brewers rally to beat the Pirates

August 30, 2020 By Bill Scott

Eric Sogard

After looking like the Brewers gave away a victory in the top of the ninth, Eric Sogard clubbed his first career game-ending home run, a two-run shot in the bottom of the ninth to send Milwaukee to a 7-6 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates at Miller Park on Saturday night.

With the Brewers leading 5-4 in the top of the 9th, closer Josh Hader issues five consecutive walks to give the Pirates a 6-5 lead.

In the bottom of the ninth, Jace Peterson led off with a walk and Sogard followed with the blast to right off of Pittsburgh’s Richard Rodriguez (0-2) to win it for the Brewers.

Devin Williams (2-1) came on in relief of Hader to retire two straight batters and get out of the bases loaded jam.  Williams secured the victory.

Christian Yelich and Orlando Arcia both homered for the Brewers, while Josh Bell went deep for the Pirates.

Brandon Woodruff pitches the series finale for the Brewers on Sunday.

Brewers capture second straight over Reds

August 26, 2020 By Bill Scott

The Milwaukee Brewers won their second straight on Tuesday night, 3-2 over the Cincinnati Reds at Miller Park and the fifth inning will be one to remember.

Trailing 3-2, the Reds loaded the bases with no outs.  That’s when the Brewers started to get a few breaks.  Cincinnati’s Joey Votto was called out on strikes on a pitch that appeared to be inside.  Cincinnati’s next hitter, Nick Castellanos singled to right.  Brewers right fielder Ben Gamel played the ball on one hop and threw a strike home to force Freddy Galvis at the plate.  The umpire originally called Galvis safe after forgetting that the force was in order.  He was quickly corrected by Brewers manager Craig Counsell and he reversed the call.  Jesse Winker then popped out and Brewers ace Brandon Woodruff was out of the jam with no damage.

Woodruff (2-2) would pitch the sixth inning as well, finishing his night by allowing two runs on four hits with a walk and eight strikeouts.

Brent Suter struck out the side in the seventh.  Devin Williams pitched a scoreless eighth and Josh Hader came in to record his seventh save.  Hader has yet to allow a hit out of the bullpen this season.

Luis Castillo (0-4) was the tough luck loser for the Reds.  He pitched 6-innings, allowing three runs (1-earned) on five hits.  He walked four and struck out nine.

Game three of the four game series is Wednesday night at Miller Park.

Road struggles continue for the Brewers in Pittsburgh

August 23, 2020 By Bill Scott

The Milwaukee Brewers continue to search for the consistency necessary to win games.  At the start of their shortened 60-game season, the pitching was good and the hitting was almost missing in action.  The offense, while inconsistent, was starting to come around a little bit and now both the offense and the pitching is failing them.

That formula continued on Saturday in Pittsburgh, where the Brewers fell to the Pirates 12-5.  That’s three straight losses and four out of the last five on the road trip.  They’ll try to salvage a .500 record on the 10-game road trip, if they can avoid a sweep against the Pirates.

The Brewers struggle to hit and score runs was on full display in the third innings.  After Mark Mathias led off with a double, he advanced to third on an errant pickoff throw by pitcher Derek Holland.  With nobody out, Orlando Arcia struck out, Ryan Braun popped out and Christian Yelich grounded out.

The Brewers finally put a run on the board against Holland in the fourth when Jedd Gyorko hit a deep home run to left field to tie the score 1-1. [Read more…]
