Willy Adames set the tone for the Brewers’ win with a first-inning home run as Milwaukee took the first game of their series against the Guardians.
The Brewers, facing the team with the best record in baseball, jumped on Cleveland early to settle into an emphatic win.
The top of the lineup put together some flashy plays, but nearly missed out on the run-scoring opportunity. Gavin Williams, the struggling Cleveland starter, was vulnerable. The sensational Jackson Chourio worked a full count before lacing a curveball to left field for a triple.
