From the outset, the Brewers demonstrated their intent to dominate. The game began with Milwaukee scoring one run in the first inning and maintaining consistent pressure with another run in the second. Despite a brief halt in runs during the third inning due to an error by both teams, they unleashed their full batting potential in the fourth inning by adding three more runs to their tally. This surge was highlighted by a combination of strategic hitting and capitalizing on errors made by Los Angeles.


Milwaukee's hitters were relentless throughout, accumulating eight hits over nine innings. Their performance was not just about power but precision as well; they managed to keep their errors at zero while forcing three from Los Angeles. Notably, Milwaukee's batters showed exceptional skill in crucial moments, converting one out of six opportunities with runners in scoring position into scores and securing three runs when two outs were already on board.

On defense, Milwaukee was equally impressive. Their pitchers struck out nine batters across nine innings while maintaining an earned run average (ERA) of 3.0 for this game—a testament to their control and effectiveness on the mound. The bullpen contributed significantly during critical moments despite facing challenges that resulted in a bullpen ERA of 10.125 for this match.


The Angels tried valiantly to mount a comeback late in the game by scoring all three of their runs in the ninth inning but fell short due to Milwaukee's early lead and solid defense throughout earlier innings.
