The Milwaukee Brewers secured a 9-5 victory over the Oakland Athletics, with Jake Bauers hitting a home run and scoring three times. Colin Rea earned his 12th win despite giving up four runs, while Brent Rooker contributed with his 30th home run for the A's. Earlier, the Brewers triumphed 11-3 in the series opener, where Rhys Hoskins broke a slump by hitting a three-run homer and driving in four runs. Hoskins and Joey Ortiz's back-to-back homers highlighted a five-run second inning in that game. Both teams are navigating roster changes as the A's prepare to relocate to Sacramento for the next three seasons, while the Brewers aim to capitalize on their strong performance. The Brewers have won seven of their last nine games, displaying their offensive prowess against the struggling A's.
