In the Brewers’ 6-5 win over the Miami Marlins, the fireworks came in the form of a back-and-forth game filled with lead changes. While the result was up in the air for much of the evening, a lockdown bullpen performance and some clutch hitting locked up a win in the series opener.
Brewers’ starter Quinn Priester was one of the primary role players in the chaos of the night. In the first inning, he surrendered back-to-back singles to the first two batters he faced, setting the stage for Miami to get onto the scoreboard early. A groundout pushed the first runner across, but Priester responded with a groundout and a strikeout to end the threat in the opening frame.
