MILWAUKEE (AP) \u2014 William Contreras singled home the tying run in the eighth inning and hit a game-ending sacrifice fly in the 10th as the Milwaukee Brewers rallied past the New York Yankees 4-3 on Saturday.<\/p>\n
The Yankees wasted a brilliant performance from Cam Schlittler and have lost back-to-back games for the first time since they dropped five in a row from April 8-12. On Friday, they got just three hits against Milwaukee\u2019s Jacob Misiorowski and Shane Drohan in a 6-0 defeat.<\/p>\n
Paul Goldschmidt hit a leadoff homer and drove in two runs for the Yankees. Jake Bauers went deep for Milwaukee.<\/p>\n
Schlittler got struck in the left calf by a 108.5 mph liner off the bat of Contreras in the first but stayed in the game and allowed two hits in six scoreless innings, lowing his major league-leading ERA to 1.35.<\/p>\n
After Ryan McMahon’s two-out RBI single on an 0-2 pitch from Aaron Ashby (7-0) put New York ahead 3-2 in the top of the 10th, Milwaukee scored twice in the bottom half to give Ashby the major league lead in wins.<\/p>\n
Jackson Chourio’s one-out infield single off Fernando Cruz (3-1) tied it and put runners at first and second.<\/p>\n
Tim Hill entered and got a weak grounder from Brice Turang. The lefty reliever tried to throw out the lead runner at third, but his throw hit Luis Rengifo in the left hand, loading the bases.<\/p>\n
Contreras followed with a fly ball to right that easily brought home Rengifo.<\/p>\n
Bauers got Milwaukee on the board in the seventh with a 420-foot shot to right-center off Brent Headrick. Turang hit a two-out single off Camilo Doval in the eighth, stole second and slid home on Contreras’ single to left.<\/p>\n
Yankees right-hander Luis Gil has been placed on the injured list at Triple-A Scranton\/Wilkes-Barre with shoulder inflammation. The 2024 AL rookie of the year isn\u2019t expected to throw for three weeks.<\/p>\n
Up next<\/p>\n
Seven months after undergoing elbow surgery, Carlos Rod\u00f3n makes his season debut for the Yankees on Sunday. Logan Henderson (0-1, 4.50 ERA) starts for the Brewers.<\/p>\n
