Brewers Stifled by Mets Pitching, Milwaukee Shut Out at American Family Field
In a recent matchup at American Family Field, the Milwaukee Brewers faced a challenging game against the New York Mets, concluding with the Brewers unable to score, marking a 0-5 defeat. This game brought the Brewers' season record to 93-69 and the Mets to an 88-72 standing. Despite their efforts, Milwaukee's bats were quiet throughout the game, managing only three hits and no runs against a formidable Mets pitching lineup.
Brewers' Struggle at the Plate
The Brewers' offensive lineup struggled significantly in this outing. The team's hitting statistics underscored a tough day with a collective batting average of .103 and an on-base percentage (OBP) of .212. Notably, Gary Sánchez managed to stand out slightly by securing one hit in two at-bats, finishing with an OBP of .667 for this game. However, Brice Turang and Jackson Chourio each contributed with one hit as well but couldn't ignite any rallies for Milwaukee.
Milwaukee's performance was further hampered by their inability to capitalize on scoring opportunities. The team had five chances with runners in scoring position (RISP) but failed to convert any into runs. Additionally, despite drawing four walks throughout the contest, they left six teammates stranded on base.
Pitching Efforts Overshadowed
On the mound for Milwaukee was Colin Rea who started but encountered difficulties early on that set the tone for his outing. Rea ended his appearance with an earned run average (ERA) of 7.941 over 5.2 innings pitched while allowing ten hits and five earned runs against him which contributed significantly to his team's challenges.
Despite these struggles from their starter, Milwaukee’s bullpen showed some resilience through Hoby Milner who delivered an ERA of 0 during his time on mound though it wasn't enough to shift momentum back in favor of The Brewers.
