First Inning

The Milwaukee Brewers set the tone early at Nationals Park, scoring 1 run on 3 hits in the first inning. Christian Yelich, with his impressive .667 average from the previous game, continued to be a key player for the Brew Crew. The Washington Nationals managed only 1 hit and no runs in response.

Second Inning

Milwaukee extended their lead with 2 more runs in the second inning. William Contreras contributed significantly by getting on base and eventually scoring. Meanwhile, the Nats struggled offensively, failing to add any runs or hits.

Fifth Inning

After a quiet third and fourth inning from both teams, Milwaukee's bats came alive again in the fifth with another pair of hits but no additional runs. The Nationals finally broke their silence with 1 run on 2 hits during this period.

Seventh Inning

The seventh inning was pivotal for Milwaukee as they exploded for 7 runs on 4 hits. Brice Turang's performance stood out as he added to his impressive stats from previous games with crucial RBIs that widened the gap between both teams.

Ninth Inning

In an attempt at a comeback, Washington scored twice more but fell short against Milwaukee's strong defense led by Aaron Ashby’s pitching prowess from earlier innings. The Brewers vs Nationals final score ended at an overwhelming victory for Milwaukee: 14-3.
