Brewers blow another late lead, fall 4-2 to Marlins
For the second time in three days, the Brewers blew a late lead to the Marlins and lost 4-2.
After Freddy Peralta allowed a go-ahead grand slam to Avisail Garcia on Thursday night, Devin Williams blew a save on Saturday to put the Brewers’ postseason hopes in serious jeopardy.
Aaron Ashby got the start for the Brewers, working into the fifth inning while allowing two runs on a third-inning home run by Peyton Burdick.
Ashby’s final line was 4 1⁄3 innings pitched with two runs allowed on three hits and no walks. He struck out six.
The offense continued their recent struggles, scratching across three runs, going 0-for-7 with runners in scoring position, and stranding nine men on base.
