Garrett Mitchell has all the talent in the world to be a star in this league. Injuries have plagued him to this point, but he\u2019s healthy and showing what he\u2019s capable of. Mitchell got this game started with a bang, a 462 foot home run off Michael Lorenzen that came off the bat at 111.5 MPH.<\/p>\n
That was then followed by a Luis Rengifo single to score Jake Bauers and the Brewers were quickly up 2-0 on the Rockies. But Colorado was able to answer back against Robert Gasser after Tyler Freeman ripped an RBI double. Then with runners on the corners, a pickoff at first was able to get Mickey Moniak in a rundown, but he stayed in long enough for the runner from 3rd to score.<\/p>\n
But the Brewers kept putting up runs against Lorenzen. Sal Frelick had the bases loaded in the 2nd inning after three straight free passes and had an RBI groundout to take back the lead. Then in the 3rd, Brock Wilken, getting the start at first base today, ripped an RBI single to the left side.<\/p>\n
The Rockies answered back, after Eddys Leonard lost a pop up in the Arizona sun that could\u2019ve ended the 3rd inning and allowed a double, Gasser walked the next batter and that was it for him. Craig Yoho came in and gave up a single, which scored a run that was charged to Gasser. Gasser finished with 2.2 IP and 3 ER with 3 BBs and 2 Ks.<\/p>\n
Yoho was back out for the 4th inning and allowed two more runs, though just one was earned after a pair of throwing errors charged to Jeferson Quero.<\/p>\n
Then in the 5th inning, the Brewers offense exploded. Wilken and Quero had back-to-back singles, then Cooper Pratt walked, loading the bases for Garrett Mitchell. Mitchell ripped a double to the opposite field to bring home all three runners and re-take the lead at 7-5. Mitchell went 2-for-3 with a double, homer, a walk, and four RBIs.<\/p>\n
After that, Sal Frelick singled to score Mitchell and Jake Bauers homered to put the Brewers up 10-5 and give them a six-spot in the 5th inning.<\/p>\n
Sammy Peralta and Jacob Waguespack both had scoreless innings. Coleman Crow pitched the final three innings and gave up a pair of runs but continued to spin some 3,000 RPM curveballs and cutters.<\/p>\n
The Brewers will be back in Cactus League action tomorrow against the Arizona Diamondbacks at American Family Fields of Phoenix. Chad Patrick is the scheduled starter for the Crew while Mitch Bratt starts for the D-Backs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Garrett Mitchell has all the talent in the world to be a star in this league.
