MLB Game Recap
Milwaukee fell 9-2 to Houston as the hosts used late home runs to break open a close contest. Starter Brandon Sproat (1-4) allowed five earned runs on six hits with four strikeouts and no walks over 4.1 innings (95 pitches). Carlos Rodriguez and Jake Woodford surrendered four additional relief runs, including a decisive eighth-inning three-run blast.
Standout Performer
Jackson Chourio provided a spark in the fifth inning. He delivered a two-out RBI single that pulled the Brewers within one run. Chourio finished 1-for-4 with an RBI, demonstrating growth in high-leverage situations during his rookie campaign. His hit to center field drove in Garrett Mitchell, though the rally ultimately stalled.
Key News & Notes
Right-hander Quinn Priester has been reassigned to the Arizona Complex League. He will continue to recover from thoracic outlet syndrome. This follows his unsuccessful results in Triple-A. Reliever Abner Uribe is currently appealing a one-game suspension and fine for an inappropriate gesture. Manager Pat Murphy continues to express confidence in Brandon Sproat. Brandon Woodruff is scheduled for live batting practice next week.

Farm Report
- Triple-A Nashville: Freddy Zamora went 2-for-4 with a home run and 4 RBIs. The team achieved an 8-3 victory over Gwinnett. His blast provided crucial insurance as the Sounds cruised.
- Double-A Biloxi: Jaron DeBerry threw a 7.0-inning complete-game one-hitter with 4 strikeouts in a 5-0 win over Columbus. This was the franchise’s first non-rain-shortened road shutout since 2017.
- High-A Wisconsin: Tayden Hall went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in an 8-3 loss to Peoria. This was Hall’s fourth homer of the season. It provided the majority of the scoring.
