The Brewers were presented an opportunity to take on a struggling Miami Marlins team while getting Freddy Peralta on the mound, but an inconsistent night left the Brewers with a 2-6 loss.
The momentum of the game shifted quickly when the Marlins cracked two home runs in the first inning. It was a consequence of some uneven control from Peralta early in the game. The first batter he faced, Jazz Chisholm, was given a free pass before coming home on a Bryan De La Cruz homer. Jake Burger added to the early score, leaving the Brewers with a three-run deficit after just one inning.
