Brewers' Offensive Efforts


The Brewers struggled to find their rhythm offensively, ending the game with a batting average of .161 and an on-base percentage of .212. Their performance was highlighted by three doubles among their five hits but was overshadowed by leaving eight runners on base and hitting just two for six with runners in scoring position. Cooper Pratt stood out by achieving a perfect batting average of 1.000 and an on-base plus slugging (OPS) of 3.0, including hitting for extra bases.


Pitching Woes Continue


On the mound, Aaron Ashby's start was less than ideal for the Brewers as he posted an earned run average (ERA) of 54.00 and allowed three hits over just two-thirds of an inning pitched. The bullpen had moments of effectiveness but ultimately conceded two runs over 7.1 innings pitched, reflecting in a bullpen ERA of 2.455 for this game.


Looking Ahead


The Milwaukee Brewers will look to regroup as they host the Seattle Mariners at American Family Fields of Phoenix in Phoenix on February 24th at 3:10 PM EDT. Fans can catch all the action from this upcoming preseason encounter on local broadcasts.
