Brewers vs Royals Recap: Misiorowski Shines, Brewers Rally Past Royals

During the first inning, the game swung fast and loud. Mitchell smashed a sinker at 97 mph and the ball ripped to center with 109 mph exit velocity. Rengifo and Yelich both scored on that double, giving Milwaukee an early 2–0 lead and big momentum. Later, in the third inning, Mitchell’s huge three-run homer to right center made it 5–0, which changed the lead for good. That three-run inning became the largest and most decisive scoring burst.

The Brewers struck first and built a quick lead. In the first, Mitchell doubled with two outs and two strikes, and two runners crossed the plate to make it 2–0. Milwaukee added three more in the third when Mitchell cleared the fence with two men on, pushing the score to 5–0. Kansas City didn’t score until the seventh, when Thomas doubled and later Witt Jr. reached to make it 5–2. The Brewers held that lead to the final out.

Milwaukee started Chad Patrick on the mound and Kansas City began with Luinder Avila. The Brewers’ pitching kept the Royals quiet until the seventh inning, when Kansas City scratched two runs across. Misiorowski and Sproat were mentioned as part of Milwaukee’s staff depth in previews, and Ragans and Lugo were highlighted for Kansas City, though they did not appear in the box score here. The Brewers’ bullpen helped protect the lead and finish the game cleanly for a 5–2 win.

This win made Milwaukee 6–1 on the season and 5–1 at home, showing early strength. The Brewers did have several players on the injured list, including Andrew Vaughn and Jackson Chourio, which matters for depth. Kansas City fell to 3–4 and will look to bounce back after the loss. Watch how Milwaukee’s rotation adjusts without Freddy Peralta and whether the bullpen keeps being reliable. Can the Brewers keep building confidence as the season moves forward?
