The hard-throwing righty has had an ERA under 3 in each of the last five seasons, although he missed large chunks of the 2023 and 2024 seasons due to injury. Misiorowski and Rasmussen both went five innings and allowed a single earned run in their respective first starts of the season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">As usual, Brice Turang will lead off today, followed by William Contreras and Christian Yelich. Hitting cleanup and playing first base is Jake Bauers, who went 2-for-4 with a homer last night. Center fielder Garrett Mitchell, right fielder Sal Frelick, and left fielder Blake Perkins will hit fifth, sixth, and seventh respectively. David Hamilton, back in the lineup at third base, and Joey Ortiz round out the bottom of the order.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">First pitch for today\u2019s game is slated for 12:40 p.m. You can watch the game on Brewers.TV or catch the radio broadcast on WTMJ 620 and the Brewers Radio Network.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Pitching for the Rays is former Brewer and 2025 All-Star Drew Rasmussen, who has been consistently effective for&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":216363,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[97209,98578,135,137,136],"class_list":["post-216362","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tampa","tag-milwaukee-brewers-discussions","tag-milwaukee-brewers-news","tag-tampa","tag-tampa-headlines","tag-tampa-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/216362","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=216362"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/216362\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/216363"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=216362"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=216362"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=216362"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
