Exciting Start for the Brew Crew! 
️
The Brewers kicked off the game with a bang as Brice Turang walked and advanced to second on a pickoff error by the Guardians' pitcher. This set the stage for Gary Sanchez, who doubled to left field, bringing Turang home to give us an early lead. Though William Contreras and Willy Adames couldn't add more to the board, the 1-0 lead felt great! 
Guardians Tie It Up 
The Guardians seemed quiet until the top of the 4th inning. Josh Naylor stunned us with a solo home run to right-center, making it a 1-1 game. A quick switch-up afterward kept the game from slipping further, but it was a wake-up call for our defense. Time to tighten up! 
Retribution from Contreras! 
The answer came right away in the bottom of the 4th when William Contreras blasted a homer to left field! His clutch hit put the Brewers back in the lead at 2-1, and from there, it felt like our game to lose. 
Tense Moments in the 6th 
The Guardians tried to rally in the 6th inning when Jose Ramirez managed to steal both second and third base after a walk. Thankfully, Josh Naylor struck out looking, ending the Guardians' hopes of scoring. That was a close one! 
Solid Pitching Seals the Deal 
Our bullpen was fantastic as Payamps, Koenig, and Williams kept the Guardians at bay through the final innings. The highlight was the top of the 9th where Devin Williams closed it out by getting Brennan, Ramirez, and Josh Naylor to ground out, securing the 2-1 victory. Clutch pitching! 
Final Thoughts 
A tight, nail-biter of a game, but our Brewers pulled through crucial moments to secure a 2-1 win. From Gary Sanchez's early RBI to William Contreras’s game-winning homer and the reliable arm of Devin Williams to close it out, it was a great team effort. Let's keep this momentum going! Go Brewers!
