Brewers Extend Winning Streak, Take Series From Braves

The Milwaukee Brewers, leading Major League Baseball, continued their strong season by winning a series against the Atlanta Braves at Truist Park. In the opener, rookie Isaac Collins hit a three-run homer and Quinn Priester pitched seven innings to secure a 3-1 win, while the Braves managed just three hits and stranded six runners. The Brewers' momentum persisted, with Blake Perkins contributing a homer and multi-hit game, and pitcher José Quintana delivering another solid outing in subsequent games. The Braves' efforts, including those from Eli White and Sean Murphy, were offset by missed scoring opportunities, such as leaving 14 runners on base in one game and going 1-for-10 with runners in scoring position in another. With this series win, the Brewers extended their undefeated run in August and strengthened their lead in the National League Central. Meanwhile, the Braves slipped to fourth place in the NL East amid continued struggles after the All-Star break.
