Gary Sanchez was at the center of Milwaukee's offense all night. He went 2-for-4 with a home run, a double and 2 RBIs, giving the Brewers the lead in the second inning with a 372-foot homer to left and then putting them back in front in the 11th with a double to left that brought home Bae. Sanchez is sitting at 199 career home runs, one shy of 200.
The decisive sequence came in the 11th. After Sanchez's double gave Milwaukee a 3-2 edge, Jackson Merrill's sacrifice fly to right scored Cronenworth to tie it back up at 3-3. Then Luis Campusano delivered the game-winning blow, singling to right to bring home Song and give San Diego the 4-3 win. Earlier in the game, Xander Bogaerts had also gone deep, a 415-foot shot to left in the third inning that answered an unearned run scored by Milwaukee's Ortiz on a fielding error by center fielder Merrill. San Diego also tied things up in the eighth when Cronenworth's infield single brought home Tatis Jr.
Milwaukee starter Dustin May was excellent, working 7.0 innings and allowing just 1 run on 4 hits with 6 strikeouts and 2 walks. The Brewers' bullpen could not hold the line late, though, allowing 3 runs over 3.2 innings. Antonio Senzatela took the loss after allowing 2 runs, only 1 earned, in just 0.2 innings of work, falling to 9-4 on the season. San Diego starter Robbie Ray lasted 4.0 innings and allowed 2 runs, but the Padres bullpen was outstanding behind him, with Adrian Morejon earning the win after 2.0 scoreless innings with 4 strikeouts, improving to 9-2.
San Diego has won five straight and improved to 65-57, sitting third in its division. Milwaukee, which leads its division at 74-47, has now lost three in a row. Bogaerts, who scored a run in the game, sits at 995 career runs, five shy of 1,000.
