The offense got some big hits today, led by veterans Tony Kemp and Eric Thames and rising star Sean Murphy. Starting pitcher Cole Irvin got a serious test today, facing off against what was essentially the Brewer’s starting offense against left-handed pitchers. And the bullpen completely shut down the Crew for six innings to finish off the win.
