Series Preview: Milwaukee Brewers @ Washington Nationals
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 […]
Brewers blow out Diamondbacks again in 13-1 victory
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 […]
Brandon Woodruff exits Thursday’s game early after concerning velocity dip
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 […]
Game Thread #30: Milwaukee Brewers (15-14) vs. Arizona Diamondbacks (16-13)
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 […]
Brewers lose early lead, fall to D-backs 6-2
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 […]
Game Thread #29: Milwaukee Brewers (15-13) vs. Arizona Diamondbacks (15-13)
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 […]
Brewers overpower Diamondbacks with small ball in 13-2 win
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 […]
Game Thread #28: Milwaukee Brewers (14-13) vs. Arizona Diamondbacks (15-12)
After breaking a four-game losing streak on Sunday, the Brewers are back tonight to continue their homestand. Next up are the Arizona Diamondbacks, who are in for a three-game series. For the Brewers, Chad Patrick is on the mound tonight. He’s coming off a rough appearance in Detroit, where he allowed four runs in four […]

Surprise Brewers assistant coach listed as name to watch for MLB manager job openings
The Milwaukee Brewers have been a model of success for the past decade, and it’s quite clear the rest of the league has taken notice. From the Mets’ long-known courtship of David Stearns, to Craig Counsell leaving for the Cubs, to Walker McKinven going to the White Sox, and so many others, teams have been […]
Series Preview: Milwaukee Brewers vs. Arizona Diamondbacks
The Milwaukee Brewers are set to host the Arizona Diamondbacks for a three-game set beginning Tuesday evening to wrap up their homestand. Milwaukee is coming off a series loss to the Pirates to begin the homestand, though they did pick up their first shutout win on Sunday, taking that one 5-0 behind a strong 12-strikeout […]
2026 Brewers Week in Review: Week 5
Last Week’s Results Division Standings Last Week Top Pitching Performance of the Week This is an easy one. Harrison’s start on Sunday versus the Pirates was probably the Brewers’ best of the season. In Sunday’s win, which busted a four-game losing streak, Harrison went six shutout innings, allowed only one hit and one walk, and […]

Brewers right the ship with 5-0 shutout victory over Pirates
Box Score Kyle Harrison turned in a brilliant performance, and the Brewers capitalized on a five-run fourth inning to snap their four-game losing streak and avoid a sweep at the hands of the Pittsburgh Pirates. The win puts Milwaukee back over .500 ahead of a Tuesday matchup with the Arizona Diamondbacks. Neither team scored until the […]
Game Thread #27: Milwaukee Brewers (13-13) vs. Pittsburgh Pirates (16-11)
Milwaukee has now dropped four straight after last night’s extra-inning loss. The Crew will look to avoid a sweep at the hands of the Pittsburgh Pirates in this afternoon’s series finale. Kyle Harrison is on the mound for the Brewers. Acquired from Boston in February, the left-hander has been a steady presence early on. He hasn’t […]
Brewers fall 6-3 in extra innings as losing streak hits four
Box Score Three times in this baseball game, the Brewers — a team that hasn’t homered in almost a week — nearly hit a baseball out of the park to right field. But none of those balls made it over the wall, and while Milwaukee sparred with the Pirates and answered their runs throughout the […]
Game Thread #26: Milwaukee Brewers (13-12) vs. Pittsburgh Pirates (15-11)
Well, things didn’t go very well for the Brewers yesterday against Paul Skenes. The reigning NL Cy Young struck out seven Brewers, didn’t walk any, and allowed just one single in seven dominant innings of work. Milwaukee couldn’t muster a hit against either of Skenes’ relievers, either, and they were shut out, 6-0, and managed […]
Game Thread #25: Milwaukee Brewers (13-11) vs. Pittsburgh Pirates (14-11)
The Milwaukee Brewers return home to American Family Field to begin a six-game homestand against the Pittsburgh Pirates and Arizona Diamondbacks. The first matchup of this homestand is a doozy. It’s a battle of the aces on the mound tonight with the wily veteran Brandon Woodruff pitching for the Crew, while the Pirates will have […]
Bernie’s Dugout Open Thread: 4/24-4/30
Greetings, Brew Crew Ball community. The Brewers bounced back nicely on their road trip against the Marlins and Tigers, and they’re now back in Milwaukee to host Paul Skenes and the Pirates this weekend. In some scary news, team No. 2 prospect and MLB No. 21 prospect Luis Peña reportedly collapsed in the dugout late […]
Series Preview: Milwaukee Brewers vs. Pittsburgh Pirates
The Milwaukee Brewers, fresh off a tough walkoff loss to the Tigers in a Thursday afternoon rubber match, are headed back to Milwaukee for another homestand. They’ll welcome the Pittsburgh Pirates for three games beginning Friday night, their first series against an NL Central opponent this season. In baseball’s deepest division to this point, the […]
Brewers come back but can’t hold on in 5-4 loss to Tigers
Box Score The Brewers nearly won a pitching duel between Tarik Skubal and Brandon Sproat, but the bullpen couldn’t hold the lead. Milwaukee is now two games over .500 after dropping the final two games against Detroit. Rookie standout Kevin McGonigle led off the bottom of the first with a double. Sproat got the next […]
Game Thread #24: Milwaukee Brewers (13-10) @ Detroit Tigers (13-12)
The Brewers are about to face both reigning Cy Young winners in back-to-back games. Yes, you read that right. Reigning AL Cy Young winner Tarik Skubal is on the mound today in Detroit, and tomorrow the Brewers return home to a warm welcome from 2025 NL Cy Young winner Paul Skenes. Per Sophia Minnaert, this […]
Updated: Brewer prospect Luis Peña overheats Wednesday night, requires trip to hospital
As our own Jason Paczkowski indicated early Thursday morning, the Brewers’ High-A Wisconsin affiliate had their game called in the eighth inning on Wednesday night after a player reportedly collapsed in the dugout. While no details have been confirmed to this point, the belief is that the collapsed player is Brewer No. 2 prospect and […]
Chad Patrick struggles in Brewers’ 5-2 loss to Tigers
Box Score After a burst on offense in Tuesday’s game, it was hard to come by on Wednesday night. The opener strategy didn’t pay off this time for the Brewers, as Chad Patrick struggled, and the Brewers’ offense couldn’t break through the Tigers’ pitching. The game started quietly for the Brewers’ offense, going down in […]
Game Thread #23: Milwaukee Brewers (13-9) @ Detroit Tigers (12-12)
After one of their best games on offense last night, the Brewers are back for game two of their series against the Tigers this evening. Though Chad Patrick was announced as the original starter, the Brewers have decided to go with DL Hall as an opener tonight. Hall will likely pitch an inning or two, […]
