Dustin May set the tone for the Brewers with a sharp outing, keeping the Reds scoreless before Milwaukee's bullpen completed the team shutout. Brice Turang, Garrett Mitchell and William Contreras led an offense that kept adding pressure.
William Contreras opened the scoring with a sacrifice fly that brought Jackson Chourio home. Andrew Vaughn then doubled to bring Brice Turang across, and the second inning widened the gap when Jackson Chourio doubled, Brice Turang homered to bring home Garrett Mitchell and Jackson Chourio, and Jake Bauers homered to bring Andrew Vaughn home.
