In their most recent game against the Mets, the Brewers emerged victorious with a 4-1 scoreline. Their hitters managed nine hits while keeping errors off the board. The bullpen's ERA stood at an impressive 0.0, indicating shut-down performances from relievers when called upon.


Another game saw them outscoring the Mets 7-6 in a high-scoring affair where they tallied sixteen hits. Despite conceding four runs by the bullpen, they held on for victory due to their offensive prowess.

The third game in this sequence was a tighter contest with just three runs scored by Milwaukee on eight hits but was enough for victory as they limited New York to just one run on one hit.


These games highlight several trends: firstly, an ability to produce runs across different innings; secondly, effective pitching that has kept opponents' scoring low; and thirdly, tight fielding with no errors recorded across these matches.

PNC Park will present its own challenges as it is known for being hitter-friendly due to its dimensions favoring batters over pitchers. However, given Milwaukee's recent form both at-bat and on the mound coupled with error-free defense work suggests that they are well-equipped to tackle these challenges head-on.


Fans can catch this exciting matchup scheduled for April 23rd at 22:40 UTC and witness whether the Brewers can continue their winning streak or if PNC Park will prove advantageous for the home team Pirates.
