After losing their last game against the Yankees, Milwaukee wanted a bounceback performance with Brandon Woodruff on the mound facing Jesus Luzardo and the Marlins. With a slim lead in the division over the Chicago Cubs, the Brewers need to take advantage of strong pitching performances down the stretch.
The Brewers jumped out to an early lead as Mark Canha, who led off with Christian Yelich still day-to-day, started the game with a solo home run. Milwaukee would add three more runs in the bottom of the third when Adames doubled to left to score Contreras.
