The Brewers’ rookies have made a strong impact on the team this season, and Joey Wiemer added to it with his first walk-off of his career. It backed up Christian Yelich’s two home run day as the Brewers took the series over the Royals with a 4-3 win.
The Royals got on the board first. Bobby Witt Jr. led off the game with a double, then Salvador Perez moved Witt Jr. up to third with a single and MJ Melendez brought in Witt Jr. with a sacrifice fly. They got another run in the third inning with back-to-back doubles from Melendez and Nick Pratto, increasing their lead to 2-0.
