Reds Burns Gets Best of Brewers' Misiorowski in Pitching Showdown
Sal Stewart and Jose Trevino homered as Cincinnati handed Milwaukee its first loss in seven games against the Reds.
On Thursday, the Cincinnati Reds defeated the Milwaukee Brewers 7-2 at American Family Field, marking Cincinnati's first win against Milwaukee in seven attempts this season.
The game featured a marquee pitching duel between Reds starter Chase Burns and Brewers ace Jacob Misiorowski, both viewed as National League All-Star selections following dominant performances.
Cincinnati's offense surged early as Sal Stewart hit a 402-foot solo home run off a 102.3-mph fastball, followed by Jose Trevino's three-run homer, handing Misiorowski a career-high five runs allowed.
Burns limited Milwaukee to two runs over six innings despite a Garrett Mitchell homer, while relief pitchers Sam Moll, Tejay Antone, and Brock Burke combined for three scoreless innings to seal the win.
The Reds return home to face the Baltimore Orioles, while the Brewers begin an 11-game road trip in Arizona against the Diamondbacks on Friday.
