Game Recap
The Milwaukee Brewers staged a dramatic ninth-inning rally, scoring three runs to overcome a two-run deficit and secure a 5-4 victory over the favored Los Angeles Dodgers. This upset marked a crucial comeback win for Milwaukee, who had trailed going into the final frame.
The Brewers initially took a 2-0 lead in the fourth inning when a pair of walks to Ortiz and Hamilton each forced in a run. The Dodgers began to chip away at the lead, with Rortvedt singling home Rojas in the fifth. Los Angeles then seized control in the sixth, as Max Muncy launched a three-run homer to right center, scoring Edman and Freeman to put them up 4-2. Dodgers starter Roki Sasaki exited after six innings, having given up two earned runs.
Despite Sasaki's effective outing, the game decisively shifted in the ninth inning. Facing the Dodgers' bullpen, Milwaukee's offense ignited for three runs, turning a two-run deficit into a lead. Chourio initiated the rally with a single to right, plating Ortiz and narrowing the gap to 4-3. Mitchell followed with a clutch single, scoring Hamilton to tie the game, and Bauers completed the comeback with another single to right, driving home Chourio for the go-ahead run. This three-run frame marked the largest scoring inning for either team and was the definitive turning point.
The Brewers' resilience ultimately prevailed, overcoming Max Muncy's earlier heroics. Their persistent offensive pressure in the final frame transformed a likely defeat into a memorable comeback victory. Following this contest, Milwaukee improves to 75-47, while Los Angeles falls to 73-49.
