Christian Yelich’s 2-Run Double Rallies NL Central Champion Brewers to 5-4 Win over Pirates

Yelich’s two-run double erased a one-run deficit as Milwaukee improved to 95-57 and kept pace for home-field advantage.

  • On Wednesday, Christian Yelich's two-run double in the seventh inning lifted the NL Central champion Milwaukee Brewers to a 5-4 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates at PNC Park.
  • The Milwaukee Brewers entered the contest one day after clinching their fourth consecutive National League Central division title, allowing manager Pat Murphy to deploy his regular lineup.
  • Pittsburgh took a temporary 4-3 lead in the sixth inning when Rafael Flores Jr. homered off relief pitcher JoJo Romero, following earlier home runs by Oneil Cruz and Brandon Lowe.
  • After Milwaukee loaded the bases in the seventh against pitcher Carmen Mlodzinski, Yelich drove in the go-ahead runs with a double down the left-field line to reclaim the lead.
  • Pitchers Antonio Senzatela and Trevor Megill preserved the victory, with Senzatela earning the win and Megill recording his 28th save before Milwaukee travels to Baltimore for a game Friday.
