The hero of the night: Isaac Collins, whose ninth-inning solo homer off Mets closer Edwin Diaz handed Milwaukee the win and the sweep of the series Reuters+1.
A Comeback for the Ages

William Contreras sparked the rally with homers in both the fourth and fifth innings, followed by Joey Ortiz’s clutch RBI that tied the game at 6–6 in the eighth ReutersBrew Crew Ball. Coming off a scoreless inning from reliever Nick Mears, Collins delivered the defining blow—sending a 2-2 pitch from Diaz over the right-field wall and electrifying the crowd ReutersBrew Crew Ball.
Dominance Across the Diamond

Looking Ahead
