Brewers vs Marlins Recap: Milwaukee tops Miami 7-5 in late rally

The Milwaukee Brewers visited Miami on Friday night for a game that went down to the wire. After edging Toronto 2-1 in their previous matchup, Milwaukee looked to keep their winning streak alive. The Marlins came in seeking to bounce back after losing to Atlanta. Coleman Crow took the mound for Milwaukee, while Janson Junk started for Miami. Both teams were ready to compete hard.

In the bottom of the fourth inning, Miami struck first with a sacrifice fly. Caissie hit a fly ball to center field that allowed Lopez to score. The Marlins led 1-0. However, Milwaukee answered immediately in the top of the fourth with explosive offense. Mitchell reached on an infield single, and Sánchez scored to tie the game. Then Jones grounded into a fielder's choice that brought Bauers home, putting Milwaukee ahead 2-0. But the Brewers weren't finished. Rengifo scored on a throwing error by the Marlins' catcher Ramírez, extending Milwaukee's lead to 3-0. In the sixth inning, Rengifo doubled to center field, scoring Bauers and making it 4-0. Milwaukee's bats were heating up with timely hits and aggressive base running throughout this stretch.

Miami refused to quit despite trailing 4-0 after six innings. In the sixth, Lopez launched a two-run homer to center field, traveling 401 feet and cutting the deficit to 4-3. The Marlins felt momentum building. Then in the eighth inning, Ramírez doubled to left field, scoring Edwards and tying the game at 4-4. Suddenly the Brewers' lead had vanished. Both teams battled intensely through nine scoreless innings, forcing extra baseball. In the tenth, Milwaukee broke through decisively.
