Overview
- Sunday night at Oriole Park the Brewers beat the Orioles 3-0 to complete a three-game sweep and reach a franchise-record 98 wins.
- Ace Jacob Misiorowski made a planned abbreviated start, allowed one hit, struck out four and extended his league-leading totals in ERA and strikeouts while moving into second on Milwaukee’s single-season strikeout list.
- The club continued late-season roster adjustments during the series by promoting right-hander Edwin Jimenez to Triple-A Nashville and releasing right-hander Patricio Aquino from the organization.
- Manager Pat Murphy returned Christian Yelich to the lineup as the designated hitter to keep regulars engaged while pitchers are managed for the postseason.
- Milwaukee has already clinched its fourth straight NL Central title, holds the best record in baseball, and the 98th win strengthens its pursuit of top National League seeding and a potential first-round bye.
