Wilson had been scheduled to start but the Pirates switched earlier Wednesday to Peters, who made his first start of the season after five relief appearances. That was the only knock against Wilson, who pitched four innings in relief of opener Dillon Peters. Wong had a one-out double into the left-field corner in the top of the sixth off Bryse Wilson for the Brewers’ first hit. The Brewers made it 3-1 in the ninth when Kolten Wong drew a bases-loaded walk from Sam Howard. Taylor followed by lining a single to left to make it 2-1. First baseman Yoshi Tsutsugo then mishandled Rowdy Tellez’s grounder, allowing Yelich to score. ”It didn’t feel like a home run was possible with the way the ball was traveling.”Ĭhristian Yelich and Hunter Renfroe started the Brewers’ rally in the seventh with back-to-back singles off Wil Crowe (1-1). ”We pitched well, for sure, and the ball felt like it was going nowhere,” Milwaukee manager Craig Counsell said. The Brewers had four hits on a night when the temperature was 40 degrees at first pitch. Hader finished for his major league-leading 10th save as NL Central-leading Milwaukee won for the eighth time in 10 games. I wouldn’t call them real no-hitters.”īrad Boxberger, Devin Williams and Josh Hader worked one scoreless inning each. ”They were five-, six-, seven-inning games. ”They were mercy-rule games,” he said with a smile. ”I don’t really consider it until you get six innings, seven innings in and turn that lineup over twice,” he said.Īshby threw three no-hitters while playing at Crowder College but called them ”kind of like fake.” Ashby said he never thought seriously about throwing a no-hitter.
