The game kicked off with the Brewers quickly asserting dominance. Although Sal Frelick struck out, the momentum soon picked up. Rhys Hoskins launched a 399-foot home run to left, bringing in William Contreras for an early 2-0 lead. The Cardinals replied with a score making it 2-1, but the tension was just building.
Middle Innings: Brewers Take Flight
In the 4th, the Brewers' bats really came to life. A double by Blake Perkins followed by Brice Turang's 387-foot homer to right center tied the game. Then, Jackson Chourio smashed a solo home run, giving the Brewers the lead. By the end of the 6th inning, our relentless offense expanded the lead to 9-4, thanks to strategic hits and exploiting the Cardinals' errors.
Sealing the Deal: Final Innings
Entering the final three innings with confidence, the Brewers' strategy was simple: keep the pressure high. The Brewers continued to capitalize on opportunities, pushing the score to an insurmountable 12-4 by the top of the 9th. The Cardinals managed to scrape back a run in the bottom of the 9th, but it was too little, too late. The Brewers' pitching did a fantastic job closing the game, with Vieira putting the final nails in the coffin, leading us to a glorious 12-5 win.
