Latest news and updates about the Brewers
Last Week’s Results Division Standings Last Week Top Pitching Performance of the Week Jacob Misiorowski, despite having to exit fairly early, had a great outing on Friday night. He went 5 1/3 no-hit innings, allowing just two walks with eight strikeouts en route to his second win of the season. There was no shortage of […]
It’s been a busy weekend for the Milwaukee Brewers. The team extended their win streak to three with a win Saturday afternoon in the nation’s capital, and plenty of news — some good, some bad — continues to roll in. Here’s a quick roundup of everything we know.
After yesterday’s win over the Nationals, the Brewers have now won three straight games. Right-hander Logan Henderson, Milwaukee’s No. 6 prospect, is on the bump today to try and make it four. Henderson, who has a 1.02 ERA in 17 2/3 innings with the Triple-A Nashville Sounds, was recalled earlier this morning. In a corresponding […]
The Nationals hung around with the Brewers all afternoon yesterday, but in the end, just couldn’t get the bats going, losing game two of the series 4-1, with a Brady House first-inning fielding error, which led to 3 runs, being all the runs the Brew Crew needed. The Nats will now look to avoid a […]
Box Score After a couple of dominant days on offense for the Brewers, the streak cooled down early today. However, it ran just long enough to build a lead, which Kyle Harrison protected in a 4-1 win this afternoon. Most of the Brewers’ offense came with two outs in the first inning. William Contreras started […]
After yet another home loss, the Nats will look to get back on track at Nationals Park. They are now 3-11 at home, which is the worst in the league. There was not much they could do against Jacob Misiorowski last night, so hopefully the offense can get going against a different pitcher. There will […]
After the Brewers’ offense kept rolling in last night’s game against the Nationals, they will try to keep that momentum going this afternoon. It will be a rematch of starting pitchers from three weeks ago, when these teams played on April 11. First, we have today’s set of injury updates. After Jacob Misiorowski left last […]
Box Score Jacob Misiorowski had a historic night on the mound. He also put a gigantic scare into the Brewer faithful when he had to be removed from the game while cruising in the sixth inning, but the Brewers have hopefully avoided any major concern over Misiorowski’s health (early reports are that he was cramping), […]
It was inevitable that Brandon Woodruff would land on the injured list after he had to leave Thursday’s start in the second inning with diminished velocity. His fastball was sitting at just 85 mph after it had been averaging 92.5 mph all season. Manager Pat Murphy was non-committal of an IL placement on Thursday after […]
After responding with authority to their game one loss on Wednesday night, dropping a 14-run barrage on the Mets’ head and winning 14-2, they came into Thursday night looking to steal the series and make it a 4-2 road trip overall. They trailed entering the late innings, but their fortunes changed when CJ Abrams launched […]
Triple-A: Norfolk Tides 5, Nashville Sounds (Brewers) 2 —Game 1 F/7 The Orioles kept Sam Huff in the organization with a fresh minor league deal after he cleared waivers and elected free agency last week. The move ensured that Baltimore could turn to Huff if either Adley Rutschman or Samuel Basallo went down with an […]
Welcome Jackson Heiden, Contributor In 2015, the Milwaukee Brewers hired Jeff Levering as the newest member of their broadcast team. On September 23, 2017, I was outside listening to the Brewers Radio Network, helping my father re-side the house, when Travis Shaw hit a two-run walk-off home run against the Chicago Cubs in the 10th […]
Greetings, Brew Crew Ball community. The Brewers are back on the road this weekend, as they’ll take a trip through D.C. and St. Louis to visit the Nationals and Cardinals for three games apiece. Feel free to use this thread to chat about (almost) anything you want: video games, food, movies, non-baseball sports, the Brewers, […]
If you had told me before the series that James McCann would throw out runners in two of the three games, that would have told you all you needed to know about how it would go for the Diamondbacks. Arizona’s starting pitching skid continued on Thursday, as the once red-hot Michael Soroka unraveled against Milwaukee’s […]
The Milwaukee Brewers are back on the road, as they’ll face their first repeat opponent of the season in the Washington Nationals. Three weekends ago, the Brewers were swept by the Nationals at home, as they stretched their losing streak to five after being outscored 18-10 over the three-game set. They’ll look to avoid a […]
Box Score For the second time in three games, the Brewers outscored the Arizona Diamondbacks by double digits. Milwaukee got to Michael Soroka early and often, and despite Brandon Woodruff’s exit in the second inning, the bullpen — led by Shane Drohan — held Arizona to just one run over 7 2/3 innings. Milwaukee is […]
The red flags popped up immediately. Brandon Woodruff’s first fastball of the game came across the plate at 84.2 mph. I initially thought the radar gun was mis-calibrated, or the system registered an off-speed pitch as a fastball. But then the next one came in at 85 mph, and instantly things looked bad. Brandon Woodruff […]

The Brewers came out hot in last night’s game but were unable to hold on for the series win against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Today’s rubber match pits veteran starter Brandon Woodruff against right-hander Michael Soroka. Woodruff, the longest-tenured member of the Brewers’ starting rotation, has been a steady presence through five starts. He carries a […]
I don’t think it’s a particularly hot take to say that I hate blackouts. They inherently limit the number of fans who can view their team and forces those fans to subscribe to a dizzying number of broadcast services just to watch the games. It’s one of the reasons why I listed their elimination as my […]
Box Score It was a bit of a Jekyll-and-Hyde night for the Brewers, both for the team’s offense and for their starting pitcher, Brandon Sproat. Sproat showed his immense potential early but ran into trouble later on; that trouble was all the Diamondbacks needed, as a Milwaukee offense that showed some life early went into […]
The Milwaukee Brewers picked up their second straight win on Tuesday and aim to make it three in a row — and their first series victory in over a week — on Wednesday evening at home versus the Diamondbacks. Yesterday, Chad Patrick battled wildness (and vision problems and vomiting, apparently) but allowed just two earned […]
Diamondbacks News Kelly, Hoffman Swatted by Brewers While Vargas Keeps Streak AliveWhile it is still too early to panic about Merrill Kelly, the veteran righty is looking more and more like the pitcher the Rangers acquired at the deadline last year and less and less like Merrill the Mainstay that the Diamondbacks hoped they were […]
Box Score The Brewers’ offense is still weathering the storm as they wait for some of their top batters to return from the injured list. On Tuesday night, they didn’t need their power hitters, as a barrage of singles and walks gave them a decisive 13-2 win over the Diamondbacks. Chad Patrick started the game […]
The D-backs opened their series in Milwaukee with a real clunker on Tuesday night. The pitching wasn’t sharp, the defense botched some routine plays, and the offense was held hitless into the fifth inning. The recent decline in pitching has become a troubling theme over the past week, with command issues putting increasing strain on […]
