The Milwaukee Brewers kicked off their series against the Baltimore Orioles on a high note with a 5-4 win, a winning margin that came late in the game.
For much of the night, it seemed the Brewers had the Orioles’ number. Milwaukee jumped to an early lead and maintained it for more than half the game.
In the second inning, the Orioles took a 1-0 lead when Quinn Priester entered the game after Rob Zastryzny opened, promptly giving up a home run to his first batter, Ramon Laureano.
