Brewers Fight Back
Not to be outdone, our Crew showed grit in the 3rd inning. Jake Bauers and Rhys Hoskins both delivered crucial hits, tying the game at 3-3. It was a rollercoaster, but in the 5th, Hoskins clutched up with a double that brought Contreras home, regaining the lead for us. The Pirates didn't back down, taking back the lead in the bottom of the 5th, but that wasn't enough to deter our Crew.Late-Game Heroics Seal the Deal
The 8th inning showcased the fighting spirit of the Brewers. With the Crew trailing, Gary Sanchez came through as a pinch hitter, hammering a 2-run homer to right that reclaimed the lead for Milwaukee at 6-5.![Raising hands :raised_hands: 🙌](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f64c.png)
