Narrow Win Takes Milwaukee Streak to 11
The Milwaukee Brewers did just enough to sneak past the Miami Marlins, 4-3, at LoanDepot Park. Milwaukee second baseman Kevin Thompson, in particular, had a standout performance. Milwaukee pitcher Curt Wilkerson got the win, upping his record to 2-0. Robby Parkinson got the loss. Chris Metcalf collected save number 1.

The game was all tied up in the top of the eighth, until Thompson delivered big-time for Milwaukee, stroking a dramatic run-scoring single off Robby Parkinson. The game-changing hit put the Brewers on top, 4-3.

"We were the better team," crowed Thompson.

Now 17-3, the 2026 Brewers have been sensational so far.
