Game Updates
Brice Turang played hero in the ninth as the Milwaukee Brewers walked off the New York Mets with a 3-2 victory Friday night, snapping a tense pitcher's duel with one decisive swing. The game had been a masterclass from Brewers ace Brandon Woodruff, who dominated over seven innings—striking out eight while allowing just two runs on Starling Marte's two-run homer. But with the score knotted in the bottom of the ninth, Turang launched a first-pitch fastball into the right-field seats, his solo shot off Tyler Rogers sending the Miller Park crowd into a frenzy. The clutch homer, Turang's first walk-off of the season, salvaged a night where Milwaukee's offense had otherwise been stifled by Mets starter Kodai Senga, who fanned seven over 4⅓ gritty innings.
The loss stings for New York, who squandered Marte's early fireworks and saw their bullpen falter in the critical moment. While Juan Soto extended his RBI streak with a solo blast in the sixth, the Mets' bats went cold against Woodruff and a lockdown Brewers 'pen. Milwaukee, meanwhile, leans on the momentum of Turang's heroics as they look to build on their narrow division lead, while the Mets—now 0-2 in one-run games this week—must regroup quickly with their playoff hopes hanging in the balance.
