Brewers hammer the Reds, take another series

Brewers 9 Reds 1 

Well, so much for that momentum from Tuesday night…..

The Brewers belted two two-run homers, tagging Andrew Abbott for a season high five runs, to secure a 12th consecutive series over the Reds (30-33). Incredibly, the Reds are now winless over 39 consecutive series after dropping Game 1.

The Brewers battered the just signed Wade Miley for four runs on six hits over the final two frames, including a three-run shot. 

The Reds are now 0-25 when trailing after six innings. Trailed 1-0 3rd, 3-0 5th, 3-1 5th, 5-1 6th, 6-1 8th, 9-1 9th.   

Offense: 4 H, 5 BB, 7 K. 0 for 8 w/ RISP. Faced LH opener DL Hall: 3.0, 0 R.  

16th time in 63 games (24.2%) Reds have scored 1 or 0 runs. 22nd time in 63 games (34.9%) Reds have scored 2 runs or fewer. 

Trevino: 3 H, 2 Doubles. 14 in 40 game/T-career high. 
McLain: BB, RBI  
Elly: BB, 2 SB 

Abbott: 6 IN, 7 H, 5 R, 1 BB, 6 K, 2 HR, 100 pitches. ERA bumps from 1.51 to 2.12. Had allowed 1/0 runs in 8 of first 9 starts.
Allowed 2 runs over previous 6 starts. HR Diaz Cameron, Mike’s son. 

Bullpen: Richardson 1.0, Miley 2.0, 6 H, 4 R, balls hit at 108.2 mph, 106.4 and 102.4

A Cubs win tonight would drop the Reds 10 games back in the Central. 

Dominance: 
Milwaukee has won 13 of the last 14 series, and 16 of 18 vs the Reds. Since 2021, the Brewers have won 24 of 32 games, and 42 of 58 vs the Reds. Milwaukee has taken 31 of the last 42 meetings at GABP.
