Gasser, bullpen shut down Angels in 3-1 victory
Brewers move back into baseball's best record thanks to dominant pitching and timely hitting
In a thrilling 3-1 victory against the Los Angeles Angels, the Milwaukee Brewers showcased a dominant pitching performance led by Robert Gasser and a clutch bullpen. The Angels started strongly, scoring their only run in the first inning with a two-out RBI double by Mike Trout and Jorge Soler. However, Gasser stepped up to the plate and shut down the Angels over five innings, allowing just one run while striking out six.
Brent Suter's shaky start was followed by a stellar performance from Brett Kerry, who took over in the third inning. Jake Bauers' 20th home run of the season in the fourth inning tied the game, setting the stage for Chad Patrick to begin the sixth inning and shut down the Angels once again. Milwaukee's bullpen sealed the win with just one hit from the Angels over the final four innings, striking out seven.
With this win, the Brewers extend their winning streak to two games and maintain their position as the best team in baseball, currently leading the Dodgers by a half-game.
