Milwaukee Brewers clinch best MLB record with 3-1 win over Angels

The Milwaukee Brewers defeated the Los Angeles Angels 3–1 at Angel Stadium in Anaheim, California. Brice Turang delivered a go‑ahead RBI single in the eighth inning, while Jake Bauers homered for the second straight game. The victory moved the Brewers to a 69‑41 record, a half‑game ahead of the Los Angeles Dodgers, giving them the best record in Major League Baseball.

Los Angeles used a bullpen game after starter Jose Soriano was scratched hours before tip‑off. Relievers Samy Natera Jr. and Brent Suter each appeared, and the Angels’ offense was limited to one run. Milwaukee’s pitching staff, highlighted by left‑hander Robert Gasser (five innings, one run) and reliever Chad Patrick (two scoreless innings), secured the win, with Trevor Megill earning his 18th save.

The result extended the Angels’ losing streak to five games and marked the Brewers’ fifth win in seven, solidifying their position atop the NL Central and the overall MLB standings.
