Pitching staff flops as Brewers lose series finale 14-5
Box Score Good news and bad news. Good news: It’s officially the All-Star break. Bad news: The Brewers pitching staff gave up 14 runs today. In recent history, the Brewers and the Pirates have played in the final series before the All-Star break, and it has never fared well for the team in blue and […]

Box Score The Milwaukee Brewers’ top prospects Jesús Made and Luis Peña both represented the franchise in this year’s All-Star Futures Game, though neither could help the National League avoid a 6-1 loss in the seven-inning exhibition.

Game Discussion: Milwaukee Brewers (59-36) @ Pittsburgh Pirates (49-47)
After being swept in yesterday’s doubleheader in Pittsburgh, the Brewers will look to bounce back and finish off the first half of the season with their 60th victory today. Sitting at 59-36, the Brewers currently sit six games ahead of the Cubs atop the NL Central, and no matter what happens today, the first half […]
Brewers drop both halves of doubleheader, lose to Pirates 3-2
Box Score The Milwaukee Brewers had a dud of a day in Pittsburgh, dropping both halves of the doubleheader despite being outscored by just two runs total — after losing the first game 7-6, they dropped this evening’s game 3-2. The Brewers had traffic against rookie Bubba Chandler early, as Jackson Chourio singled and stole […]
Brewers nab TCU outfielder Sawyer Strosnider in second round of 2026 MLB Draft
The Milwaukee Brewers had been heavily connected to Sawyer Strosnider in mock drafts throughout the weeks leading up to the 2026 MLB Draft. Ranked as a top 30 talent in this Draft, including No. 13 overall by Baseball America, the Brewers were ultimately able to select Strosnider, but not at No. 25 overall, where he […]
Meet Trey Ebel, the Brewers’ first-round pick in the 2026 MLB Draft
With the No. 25 overall pick in the 2026 MLB Draft, the Brewers have selected shortstop Trey Ebel out of Corona High School (CA). If that sounds familiar, it’s because Milwaukee selected his older brother, Brady Ebel, out of the same school with the No. 32 overall pick in last year’s draft. This spring, during […]
Game Discussion: Milwaukee Brewers (59-35) @ Pittsburgh Pirates (48-47)
After dropping the first half of today’s doubleheader 7-6 in disappointing fashion after Esmerlyn Valdez hit a go-ahead grand slam in the seventh, the Brewers will look to bounce back in the second game this afternoon. Left-hander Shane Drohan gets the ball for the Brewers, with right-hander Bubba Chandler opposite him. Drohan has a 2.97 […]
Bullpen blows it late as Brewers fall to Pirates 7-6 in game one of doubleheader
Box Score The Brewer offense had a solid day today against a 2026 All-Star, Pittsburgh starter Braxton Ashcraft. But Brandon Sproat had a second straight poor, inefficient start for the Brewers, and a late meltdown by one of the team’s more reliable but suddenly struggling relievers gave the Pirates a late lead. Milwaukee tried to […]
Game Discussion (Let’s Try This Again): Milwaukee Brewers (59-34) @ Pittsburgh Pirates (47-47)
The Brewers were rained out last night! I hope you’ll forgive that instead of rewriting an entire new game discussion, I’m just going to (mostly) copy and paste what I wrote before yesterday’s game, because both teams are using the same lineups they announced last night. However, there are two new pieces of information today. […]
MLB Draft 2026 Milwaukee Brewers Mock Draft Roundup: Where will the Crew go in Round 1?
The 2026 MLB Draft gets underway today. Over the next two days, the Milwaukee Brewers will select 20 players to add to their organization and be part of that next wave of young talent.

POSTPONED: Milwaukee Brewers (59-34) @ Pittsburgh Pirates (47-47)
Update #3: There will be no Brewers game tonight (a little puzzling as the weather actually hasn’t looked that bad for about the last hour).

Bernie’s Dugout Open Thread: 7/10-7/16
Greetings, Brew Crew Ball community. The Brewers have powered their way through the longest stretch of the season, as they’re just three games away from completing 18 games in 17 days.

Bauers powers Brewers to 8-4 series finale win over Cardinals
Box Score For the first time since the first half of Tuesday’s doubleheader, the Brewers took the first lead of the game early on and never looked back.
