Garrett Mitchell, an outfielder for the Brewers, has been on a remarkable run.

His performance in that game was nothing short of stellar, hitting three out of four at-bats and scoring a run. Over the last three games, his consistent hitting has made him a player to watch closely in this matchup.


On the other side, LaMonte Wade Jr., playing first base for the Giants, has also shown why he's a key player for his team.

The Brewers have other notable performers such as William Contreras and Aaron Civale who have shown promising stats in recent games. Contreras has been effective behind the plate while also contributing offensively when needed. Civale's pitching could play a crucial role in containing the Giants' hitters.


For the Giants, beyond Wade's contributions, players like Michael Yastrzemski have been pivotal. Yastrzemski’s experience and capability to change the game both offensively and defensively make him another player worth focusing on during this matchup.
