The Brewers started their west coast road trip by being shut out by the Giants, 3-0. They ended the road trip with the same result \u2014 shut out 3-0, this time by the Angels. Jacob Misiorowski was his usual dominant self, but one mistake hurt his day. Meanwhile, Walbert Ure\u00f1a kept the Brewers in check and bolstered his strong rookie season.<\/p>\n
Both pitchers started out dealing. Ure\u00f1a started his day by striking out the Brewers in order on 10 pitches. Misiorowski responded by striking out the side as well, also on 10 pitches. It was an early show of what we would see for most of the day.<\/p>\n
In the second, Ure\u00f1a issued a leadoff walk to William Contreras, but nothing else in a scoreless second. As for Misiorowski, he had his one bad inning of the day. Vaughn Grissom led off the inning with a single. Two batters later, Wade Meckler hit a cutter out to right center for a two-run home run. It was the second straight cutter that hMisorowski threw in the same spot. He recovered and retired the next two batters, but the Angels had a 2-0 lead.<\/p>\n
In the third, the Brewers had one of there best chances to score, but also partially ran their way out of it. David Hamilton drew a one-out walk, then immediately tried to steal second. While he had a good jump, catcher Tyler Heineman\u2019s throw was perfectly located to shortstop Zack Neto, who was able to catch and swipe tag Hamilton on the leg for the out.<\/p>\n
That would end up being a major out for the Angels. The Brewers got two more baserunners from a Brice Turang singled and Jackson Chourio walk, but Garrett Mitchell grounded out to end the inning.<\/p>\n
After giving up that run in the second inning, Misiorowski settled in and became his usual dominant self. He did not allow another baserunner until the seventh inning, when he walked Jo Adell with two outs. He finished that inning and that was the end of his day. He pitched seven innings, allowing two runs on two hits and a walk. He struck out 10 in the game and needed just 83 pitches to do it. It was his tenth double-digit strikeout game of the season, which is a team record.<\/p>\n
On the other side, Ure\u00f1a bent a little more, but did not break in his start. He allowed a single to Cooper Pratt in the fifth, then another single to Chourio in the sixth. That was it for Ure\u00f1a. He finished the day with six scoreless innings pitched, three hits and three walks allowed with seven strikeouts.<\/p>\n
After Ure\u00f1a left the game, Jake Bauers drew a leadoff walk off of Luke Murphy in the seventh. After Andrew Vaughn had a hard hit lineout that went right to Denzer Guzman at third, Bauers was caught off of first base. Luis Lara flew out to end the inning.<\/p>\n
Sam Bachman came in to start the eighth inning for the Angels. After Pratt grounded out to start the inning, Hamilton drew a four-pitch walk. Then, on the first pitch to Turang, a passed ball let Hamilton reach second. At the same time, Bachman called for the trainers with an arm issue. He was pulled from the game for Ryan Zeferjahn. He finished up a strikeout of Turang, then Chourio singled to put runners at the corners. Mitchell had a chance to get the Brewers on the board and maybe tie or take the lead, but struck out to end the inning.<\/p>\n
DL Hall came in to pitch the eighth inning, making his first appearance since returning from the IL. It was not a sharp return for him. He started the inning by walking Guzman, but responded with a strikeout of pinch-hitter Jose Siri. Heineman then grounded out but moved Guzman up to second. After that, a wild pitch from Hall let Guzman reach third, and Neto singled to bring in Guzman and make it a 3-0 game. Hall allowed another single to Mike Trout after that, but Nolan Schanuel grounded out to end the inning.<\/p>\n
Zeferjahn came back out to finish the game in the ninth. Bauers hit a one-out single to keep some hope going, but strikeouts of Vaughn and Lara (who was victim of a bad strike three call but had no challenges left) ended the game.<\/p>\n
The Brewers had their chances, as they had 10 baserunners (five hits, five walks) compared to the Angels\u2019 six (four hits, two walks). Unfortunately, the Brewers did not take advantage of their scoring chances. Two baserunners were erased (one caught stealing, one pickoff) and a double play ended another potential scoring chance. As a team, they went 1-for-6 with runners in scoring position and left seven on base.<\/p>\n
Chourio led the offense with a 2-for-3 day and one walk. Jake Bauers had a hit and a walk as well. Turang and Pratt had the other two hits for the offense, and Hamilton was hitless but walked twice.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s back to American Family Field now for a seven-game homestand, opening tomorrow against the Pirates. Before that game begins, the MLB trade deadline will pass at 5 p.m. tomorrow, just under 24 hours from this writing. The Brewers will be active on the market and could have a new addition or two by then.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Brewers started their west coast road trip by being shut out by the Giants, 3-0.
