Milwaukee Brewers 2026 season – early August

Overview

In early July, the Brewers edged the Arizona Diamondbacks 3‑2, with Jake Bauers delivering a decisive seventh‑inning home run. Later in the month, Milwaukee continued its offensive surge, defeating the Los Angeles Angels 6‑2 after a five‑run fifth inning that featured homers from Brice Turang and Bauers. On July 31, rookie left‑hander Shane Drohan threw six strong innings, extending his streak of six‑plus‑inning starts and giving the Brewers their ninth win in 13 games, keeping them atop the NL Central at 68‑41.

The following day, Milwaukee again beat the Angels, this time 3‑1 at Angel Stadium. Brice Turang supplied the go‑ahead RBI single in the eighth inning, while Jake Bauers added a tying home run earlier. Robert Gasser pitched five innings, allowing one run, and reliever Chad Patrick added two scoreless innings; Trevor Megill recorded his 18th save. The win moved the Brewers to a 69‑41 record, the best mark in MLB and a half‑game ahead of the Los Angeles Dodgers, securing their lead in the NL Central and the overall league standings. The Angels suffered their fifth straight loss, and the victory further cemented Milwaukee’s position with the league’s best record.
