Throughout the game, the Brewers' offense was in fine form, racking up 15 hits. The highlight came in the ninth inning when they exploded for ten runs to secure an unassailable lead. Their batting prowess was evident with a .366 average and an on-base plus slugging percentage of 1.229 for this encounter. The offensive display included four home runs that underscored their dominance over Reds' pitchers.


Garrett Mitchell stood out with his remarkable performance at bat, achieving a .500 average and slugging at an impressive rate of 1.75, which pushed his OPS to an outstanding 2.35 over four at-bats.

On the pitching front, the Brewers were equally formidable. Starter Dayton Hall and reliever Joseph Ross combined to keep the Reds scoreless, demonstrating impeccable control and effectiveness on the mound. Hall maintained an ERA of 0.0 and recorded a WHIP of .7143 across seven innings pitched – reinforcing Milwaukee's defensive strength as effectively as their bats did offensively.


The Reds found it challenging to generate any momentum against Milwaukee's pitchers throughout all nine innings managing only five hits without converting any into runs—a situation exacerbated by committing one error that further limited their chances.
