Much of Saturday’s game looked like a potential blueprint for the Brewers in their 7-6 win against the New York Mets, but a late comeback pushed Milwaukee to the brink.
After their Opening Day win was headlined by a dominant pitching staff, the Brewers offense responded with their own proclamation as they totaled 16 hits for their second win of the season.
It was an abrupt, aggressive start to the game, scoring three runs in the first inning against Luis Severino. After William Contreras and Christian Yelich hit a pair of singles, Willy Adames came through to drive in the first run.
