The Brewers' performance at Citi Field was marked by a consistent offensive push and an error-free defense. The team tallied nine hits and capitalized on their scoring opportunities without committing a single error throughout the game. Their batting average stood at .273, while their on-base percentage (OBP) was an impressive .400, indicating their ability to get on base and create scoring chances.


Milwaukee's hitters showed discipline at the plate with five walks drawn, contributing to their overall OBP. They also demonstrated speed on the bases with three stolen bases out of three attempts – showcasing a perfect steal success rate of 100 percent. Clutch hitting was evident as they managed four hits in thirteen at-bats with runners in scoring position (RISP), resulting in four runs batted in (RBI). Notably, three RBIs came with two outs, reflecting timely hitting that kept innings alive and added pressure on the Mets' defense.


On the pitching side, Milwaukee's bullpen was particularly effective over four innings pitched; they did not allow any runs and held opposing batters to a mere .143 batting average against them. The bullpen also boasted an impressive strikeout-to-walk ratio (K/BB) of zero due to not issuing any walks while striking out five batters – translating into an excellent strikeouts per nine innings (K9) rate of 11.25.


The starting pitcher for the Brewers also put forth a strong outing over five innings pitched with only one earned run allowed which resulted in an earned run average (ERA) of 1.8 for starters. This performance helped maintain control over the game flow and set up Milwaukee's relievers for success later in the contest.
