The Milwaukee Brewers, winners of six of their last seven games, are back on the road this weekend, as they’ll take on the Minnesota Twins after a solid homestand that included a pair of series wins against the Yankees and Padres.

Bernie’s Dugout Open Thread: 5/15-5/21
Greetings, Brew Crew Ball community. The Brewers finally look a bit like what we’re used to, as they went on a five-game winning streak earlier this week before a heartbreaking loss to the Padres on Wednesday night. They’re now headed to Minnesota and Chicago, where they’ll take on their top interleague rival in the Twins […]
Series Preview: Milwaukee Brewers @ Minnesota Twins
The Milwaukee Brewers are back on the road, and this time, they won’t have to travel too far. Beginning this weekend, the Brewers are on a two-series trip through the Twin Cities and Chicago, as they’ll take on a pair of rivals in the Twins and Cubs. First up is Minnesota, as the Brewers will […]
Harrison dominates again as Brewers coast to series win
Box Score Milwaukee jumped all over San Diego starter Griffin Canning early, scoring three runs in each of the first two innings, and Kyle Harrison turned in another gem to deliver a 7-1 victory. After taking two of three from the Padres, the Brewers have now won six of their last seven games. Canning started […]
Game Thread #41: Milwaukee Brewers (23-17) vs. San Diego Padres (25-17)
Milwaukee squandered a masterpiece from Jacob Misiorowski last night, allowing the Padres to come back and eke out a ninth-inning win. Both teams have now each won one game heading into today’s rubber match, which pits Kyle Harrison against right-hander Griffin Canning. Milwaukee has embraced a youth movement within its rotation, but Harrison (2.41 ERA, […]
Misiorowski’s Masterpiece wasted as Brewers fall to Padres 3-1 in pitchers’ duel
Box Score Jacob Misiorowski continues to amaze. After a dominant performance against the Yankees his last time out, Miz followed that up with an even more sparkling performance against the Padres. Still, the Brewers fell 3-1. While the first inning for Misiorowski still carried the velocity in the 103-mph range, it took him a bit […]
Game Thread #40: Milwaukee Brewers (23-16) vs. San Diego Padres (24-17)
Fresh off a 6-4 series opening win on Tuesday night, the Milwaukee Brewers and San Diego Padres are back at it with both teams’ respective aces on the mound. The Brewers will have Jacob Misiorowski starting tonight. He’s coming off an electric start against the Yankees where he struck out 11 and threw the most […]
The Brewers’ bullpen is working its magic again
Note: All statistics are as of May 11 At some point every season, the Brewers’ bullpen stops making sense. Not bad, necessarily. Just… different. There’s no clean seventh-eighth-ninth progression. There’s no “this is the closer, this is the setup guy, everyone else fall in line.” Instead, it’s a constant shuffle of arms, innings, and situations […]
Joey Ortiz helps power Brewers’ offense to series opening win against Padres
Box Score On the night where Christian Yelich returned to the lineup, one of the biggest punching bags of the offense had the big performance. Joey Ortiz has taken a lot of heat this year from fans for his slow start at the plate, understandably so. Ortiz entered Tuesday’s game with a .181 average, a […]
Game Thread #39: Milwaukee Brewers (22-16) vs. San Diego Padres (24-16)
The Milwaukee Brewers and San Diego Padres are getting a three-game series started at American Family Field. The Brewers are coming off a sweep of the New York Yankees while the Padres just finished a four-game series split with the St. Louis Cardinals. Milwaukee is getting healthier as Christian Yelich was activated off the IL […]
Brewers activate Christian Yelich to finally bring lineup back to full strength
At long last, the Milwaukee Brewers finally have all their big bats available to them in the starting lineup. The Brewers have not had their top group of bats — Jackson Chourio, Andrew Vaughn, and Christian Yelich — together all season. Now, they finally will as Christian Yelich has been activated off the IL and […]

Last Week’s Results Division Standings Last Week Top Pitching Performance of the Week Just like last week, our selection here goes to Jacob Misiorowski.

Turang walk-off homer gives Brewers 4-3 victory, caps sweep of Yankees
Box Score Twenty years ago, Bill Hall (one of the author’s all-time favorite players), wearing No. 2, hit a walk-off home run with a pink bat on Mother’s Day. Today, Brice Turang, also No. 2, used a pink bat to add another chapter to Milwaukee Mother’s Day lore when he walked off the Yankees with […]
Game Thread #38: Milwaukee Brewers (21-16) vs. New York Yankees (26-14)
Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there! The Brewers, of course, have some history on this holiday, and they’ll look to keep that rolling today. By winning on Friday and Saturday, the Brewers have already clinched a big series victory against the New York Yankees. But they might as well get greedy, right? […]
Is it time for the Brewers to retire another jersey?
Sitting and watching CC Sabathia and Dave Parker being inducted into the Brewers’ Wall of Fame got me thinking: When will the Brewers retire their next number? The last person to have a jersey number retired was a man who never played baseball for the team but rather was born, raised, and brought baseball back […]
Brewers walk off Yankees in extras as William Contreras plays hero
Box Score It was a matchup of two young pitchers who have been dominating to start 2026: Cam Schlittler and Kyle Harrison. Offense would be at a premium; that was certain. The Brewers nearly were able to knock Schlittler out of the game in the first inning, after William Contreras ripped a 108.5-mph comebacker off […]
Game Thread #37: Milwaukee Brewers (20-16) vs. New York Yankees (26-13)
The Milwaukee Brewers are looking to parlay their win in the series opener against the New York Yankees into a series win on Saturday night. They were able to shut out the Yankees potent lineup on Friday night, the first shutout the Brewers have had against the Yankees since 1992. On the mound trying to […]
Jacob Misiorowski is making history, and the season is still young
Last night, the Brewers put together a strong performance to open up their series against the Yankees, shutting them out 6-0. While the final score reflects a complete game from the Brewers as a team, it was Jacob Misiorowski who generated the talk of the game. Not only did he dominate a strong Yankees’ lineup, […]
Pitching staff shines in second shutout win of the year
Box Score Jacob Misiorowski celebrated CC Sabathia being inducted into the Brewers’ Wall of Fame in the most ceremonious fashion possible, by striking out 11 Yankees and not allowing a single run, as he led the Brewers to a 6-0 series-opening victory Friday night. Kicking the festivities off in the top of the first inning, […]
Game Thread #36: Milwaukee Brewers (19-16) vs. New York Yankees (26-12)
After an on-and-off week for the Brewers, they’re back in action following a scheduled off day yesterday and this evening, ready to begin a three-game series with the New York Yankees. It’s been just a little over a year since the Yankees and Brewers last squared off, and last year’s series was certainly one that […]
Bernie’s Dugout Open Thread: 5/8-5/14
Greetings, Brew Crew Ball community. The Brewers are back in town, as they’ll host the Yankees and Padres over the next week. We’ll start things off this week with a question: Which opposing MLB stadium would you most (and least) like to visit to catch a game? Feel free to use this thread to chat […]
