Brewers overcome Dustin May’s early injury to rout the Mets 8-1

Milwaukee Brewers defeated New York Mets 8-1 in a game on Wednesday night, despite starter Dustin May suffering an injury after just one pitch. Milwaukee's Brice Turang delivered a three-run homer to help secure the win. May left the game early due to a bruised right scapula, replaced by lefty Robert Gasser who secured the win with 5 1/3 innings of one-run pitching.

David Hamilton, Sal Frelick, Garrett Mitchell and Christian Yelich all contributed with RBI singles, while Francisco Alvarez had an RBI single for the Mets. The Brewers' victory marked their sixth straight winning season and ninth in the last 10 years, as they finished over .500 just 15 times in their first 48 seasons.
