The Milwaukee Brewers and Cincinnati Reds played an exciting, sloppy game tonight at Great American Ballpark in Cincinnati, as the Reds jumped out to a huge early lead and the Brewers came just short of making one of their all-time biggest comebacks.
Aaron Ashby, making his first major league appearance since 2022, got off to a strange start. In the first inning, Spencer Steer reached when Rhys Hoskins just dropped a throw from Willy Adames, and then there was a lengthy delay while the ground rules were reviewed, which ended with Steer being awarded second base.
