# Milwaukee Brewers 2026 MLB season milestones > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/milwaukee-brewers-2026-mlb-season-milestones > Updated: 2026-08-22T14:19:53.000Z. Sources: 58. Developments: 4. The Milwaukee Brewers achieved significant milestones during the 2026 MLB season, becoming the first team to reach 70 wins following a 2-1 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates. During a series against the Seattle Mariners, the Brewers matched a modern-era Major League Baseball record with a 22-0 shutout victory at American Family Field, tying the largest margin of victory in a shutout since 1901. In a high-profile pitching duel at American Family Field, the Brewers defeated the Atlanta Braves 2-1, becoming the first team in Major League Baseball to reach 80 wins in the 2026 season. Jacob Misiorowski, a National League Cy Young Award favorite, pitched six shutout innings to improve his record to 13-5 and lower his ERA to 1.68. Despite noting he did not feel his best, Misiorowski reached velocities up to 103.1 mph and utilized sliders and cutters to navigate the Braves' lineup. Following the performance, Braves veteran Chris Sale praised the pitcher, stating, “It’s probably the most impressive fastball I’ve ever seen.” The Brewers secured their runs in the third inning through hits by William Contreras, Andrew Vaughn, Luis Lara, and Jackson Chourio. Contreras recorded two hits during the contest, including a double that drove in a run. Trevor Megill earned the save by striking out Ronald Acuña Jr. in the ninth inning. Misiorowski remains on pace to break a 110-year-old MLB record for the fewest hits allowed per nine innings in a single season. Additionally, pitcher Brandon Woodruff is expected to aim for a return to the mound before the end of the season following unexpected healing in his shoulder. ## Claims - Grant Holmes of the Atlanta Braves lost a no-hitter bid against the Chicago White Sox on Thursday.
