The Brewers host the Cincinnati Reds here at American Family Field with the number one seed in the National League has staked The Brewers win today. They'll wrap that up. It'll also be a franchise record 97th win of the season the Reds will have to wait for a potential clinching scenario But they can still make it on their own with a win today and a win tomorrow and Robert Gasser the lefty Goes to work for the Brewers Gasser only one start in the major league level was three innings September 21st against the Cardinals one away for Noel V Marte So after two quick outs for Robert Gasser He gives up the single to and do her and now the walk after getting ahead of steer initially now Here's the rookie Sal Stewart who was called up the end of August there it is The base runners, but they're both stranded Andrew Abbott made his major league debut and earned his first career win against Milwaukee back in June of 2023 Six innings of shutout work then he's been so consistent bouncing ball up the middle diving stop by McLean to his right Single for yellows to leave things off and now here's rice to rank Steer running out of room and up against the screen he makes the catch Spencer steer had no room to spare and he somehow reels it in You guys open that ball Blow it foul into the net but nice play by Spencer steer out there left field and there's two away And here's Andrew Vaughn the pitch is lined to right in comes Marte toward the line to make it on that one Side retire to the inning is over So a nice job by Abbott to work around the leadoff single first pitch to De La Cruz is on the ground sharply hit Diving Ortiz and it is possible to get a ground ball past Ortiz and Ellie's aboard to start the red second I think that raised it It did gas or misfires and hit Stevenson first and second and nobody out for Cincinnati Here's key Brian Hayes to on nobody out a ground ball up the middle backhand stop by a sliding terrain Now McClain with a chance to pick up a couple of RB eyes right now chopper to third Backhanded by Durbin comes home with it the tag applied by Jansen They got him they cut down Ellie de la Cruz on a ground ball to third That is a huge second out and perfectly played by Durbin It could have been a better running route by Ellie de la Cruz. He ran entirely in foul territory the whole way So now first and second and two outs No LV Marte power right fielder is gonna lead things off here for Cincinnati breaking ball soft chopper toward the third baseline But a bad throw to first and it pulls Vaughn off the bag as he dives for the throw that was headed to right field if not for Vaughn's diving stop and Marte will reach safely Now the matter is Miguel and Duhart. This is driven to left field on a line It gets down for a hit and past the diving Collins all the way to the wall Marte will be held at third a Scorching line drive under the glove of Collins and Duhart has his second hit of the night and the Reds are in business With second and third and nobody out See if Sal Stewart can get the job done Stewart rips it right back up the middle a cap spinner in the center It'll score Marte and Duhart has stopped at third on the line drive Go ahead RBI single by Sal Stewart one to nothing Reds on the bullet Ellie with a shallow fly out two down in the third and Gasser has an opportunity to limit the damage to just the one run and it is the breaking ball and it hangs off the outside Corner for ball four and the Reds have low to the bases see if he makes the move To Mizorowski, would you bring him into the game in a bases loaded situation? He will interesting stuff early here in Milwaukee It's been a tale of two seasons for Jacob Mizorowski before and after his IL stint It's his first career major league relief appearance. He has done it at the minor league level No room for air key Brian Hayes the batter topped in front of home plate. Mizorowski stumbles off the mound and everybody's safe Key Brian Hayes with a swinging bunt Drives home the second run of the night for Cincinnati doesn't matter how hard you hit it. The exit velocity is not gonna be high It's not gonna be an analytical darling, but it's a knock in an RBI and a tune-up So bases loaded for Matt McLean high and outside ball four and Mizorowski is walked in a run Stewart dashes home from third They're still loaded and now TJ Friedel comes the plate the ninth man to bat in this three-run Reds third Swinging a line drive base hit left field one run home. Here comes Hayes to the plate around the third McLean The throw goes to 30 threw it away over by the dugout McLean will score Friedel in the second the Reds get three and it's six to nothing in the third Well, that is what the type of mistake that you never ever ever see the Milwaukee Brewers make and that is an extreme Meltdown the Brewers have a leadoff baser now Joey Ortiz Ortiz With a double to the deepest part of the park. You gotta shut this inning down You can't make this a big inning for the Brewers and give them hopes It's grounded up the middle by Yelich that'll get a run home Jansen stores Milwaukee's on the board now the second run of the inning is 90 feet away But Jackson Churio coming to the plate and he strikes out to go on That was a big strikeout for Abbott and it was his first of the outing to her out Now Bryce terrain first pitch swinging. It's terrain the left field pretty deep steer going back into the corner Scores and it's an RBI double for Bryce Terang to make it 6-2 I thought he was gonna have it would have been a very difficult catch though Collins He off the Milwaukee fourth swing and a miss struck him out breaking ball down and in and Collins is the first out of the fourth Here's Caleb Durbin swing a little soft tapper to the right side Abbott bounces on it Just beside himself at that air just tried to throw it too softly with one out Here's Blake Perkins and on one hop it scooped up by Dela Cruz at second the flip for one on the first impressively turned Six four three off a tricky hop to end the inning here's Spencer steer. Here's a liner and a leaping Nice play by Joey It has been a pleasure to watch Joey Ortiz play shortstop all season long Here's Sal Stewart fly ball deep right off the bat of Stewart back. It goes it is gone into the Reds bullpen Sal Stewart an opposite field home run into the Reds bullpen Reds have added on 7-2 in this sixth inning Oh, we have said this time and time again This kid can hit a fastball you're gonna see a lot of those off his bat his fifth home run already Abbott's still out there on the mound for the Reds and Jackson Churio to lead things off for the crew Jackson Churio answers Solo homer to bring the deficit back to four Lead off homer for Churio in the home half of the sixth. It's an Addy's bullpen getting loose Andrew Abbott trying to get through six here to to round it hard first base side steer is there with Andrew Vaughn coming to play Terry Francona Go to a young arm out of the bullpen and Terry Francona sings the praises of Connor Phillips his rookie In Francona's words has saved our you-know-what's Andrew Vaughn to the plate here for Milwaukee Get into another one here and all of a sudden it makes this game very interesting. Here's Isaac Collins Shaky for Connor Phillips coming out of the bullpen. He has to deal with traffic now Jake Bowers just popped out of the dugout He's gonna hit here for Blake Perkins Soft line drive for Bowers. It's an RBI single Francona with a call to the bullpen The tension is for real when you're in a penitentiary playoff change every pitch a pitch to the at-bat ball for And the tying run is on the bases are loaded Stop me if you've heard this one before Joey Ortiz is gonna hit with the bases loaded 29 at-bats with the bases loaded this year for Joey Ortiz club record and you can feel the tension starting to shift Into that Reds third base dugout Brewers will settle for the two It's seven to four Cincinnati and said hitting 227 12 homers 41 RBI high in the air deep to right back It goes at the wall Caught right at the fence Jake Bowers Right at the wall, he just got under it a little bit too much thing to away now for Danny Jansen So it'll be an infield single for Matt McClain and now Friedel comes to the plate with two on and two away Reds are up seven to four bottom of the ninth inning Let's hold on win tomorrow would punch the ticket to the postseason and now they go with Emilio Pagan Who is only the second pitcher this season in the big leagues to pitch on four consecutive days? Tyler Ferguson of the 80s back in May is the other About this move AJ for the Reds to try and close this out and set up a win Freelick down on strikes to begin the night one away for Christian Yelich Yelich pops it up left side He Brian Hayes by Dela Cruz to dog Seven four Reds nobody on two outs of the night the Reds are not away from being a win away From heading to the playoffs and a date with the Dodgers to to pitch Churio ground ball to short Dela Cruz backhand The Reds magic number is down to one it all comes down to Sunday a win and they're in game 162 for all the marbles
