Brewers Face Padres After Loss Despite Patrick’s Strong Performance

MILWAUKEE, Wis. — The Milwaukee Brewers continue their three-game series against the San Diego Padres on Saturday night, June 6, at American Family Field. Left-hander José Quintana (4-1, 2.77) will take the mound for the Brewers, while the Padres will counter with right-hander Randy Vásquez (3-1, 3.47).

In the last game played on June 6, the Brewers suffered a 2-0 loss despite a strong outing from rookie Chad Patrick, who pitched six innings and allowed just one run.

During the match, Patrick showcased his capabilities, striking out six batters and lowering his ERA to 2.84. However, the Brewers’ offense struggled, stranding ten runners on base. This included a frustrating sixth inning when Patrick walked Xander Bogaerts, finishing his outing while trying to inspire the crowd to increase their energy.

Milwaukee managed to get runners on base repeatedly but failed to convert those opportunities into runs. They recorded four innings where two men were left stranded. The game took a turn in the eighth inning when Padres’ Manny Machado hit a solo home run off Grant Anderson, extending their lead to 2-0.

The disappointing loss highlighted the Brewers’ ongoing struggle to deliver timely hits, raising concerns about their offensive reliability. The team will look to bounce back in the upcoming matches against the Padres, starting with the game at 6:35 p.m. on June 7.

The Brewers have a lineup change for the next game, where RHP Aaron Civale (1-1, 5.19) is expected to face a Padres pitcher yet to be announced. Fans can catch the game live on Roku and on AM-620 WTMJ radio.
