The Brewers’ 2024 Minor League season finale sees Nashville needing a win to even this week’s series at Norfolk 3-3.

26-year old RHP Easton McGee (8.02 ERA in AAA with 16 Ks in 21.1 IP) gets the start and C Andy Yerzy makes his first game appearance in 3 months.

We can be near certain to see LHP Bryan Hudson get one more stint to work on that sweeper. This is day 4 removed from his last appearance. Mcgee is more than likely shooting for a 2.0-3.0 IP start (he did pitch a season high 3 2/3 IP back in early August) in what is essentially a rehab year coming off that TJ last spring. Let's hope he ends strong! One has to think McWilliams was called up as, generally, a fresh arm to handle a late inning in this bullpen special. Beyond that, I have to think McKendry is available as a possible inning-eater and RHP Shane Smith will likely appear for his last work of the 2024 regular season.

Big moment for Yerzy in what has essentially been a lost season.

Easton McGee ends his season on a solid note, retiring 9 of 10 batters. He K'd 4, walked none and only allowed a single.

Chris Roller walked his first time up, then hit a solo homer to lead off the 4th inning for a 1-0 lead. Brewer Hicklen singled and scored on walk, then Freddy Zamora delivered a 2-out, 2-run double as Norfolk's starter faded.

Sounds lead 5-0 and Evan McKendry comes in for the bottom of the 4th.

Five consecutive hits to open the 5th innings have the Sounds off to the races, including a Tyler Black 2-run homer and Patrick Dorrian 3-run blast. 10-0 Nashville. Woo hoo!

Who wants to bet whether Tyler Black will be on the playoff roster?

3 Ks and 5 whiffs for Hudson in 1.2 scoreless innings. He did concede a walk and a hard hit double (to old friend Garrett Cooper), but I think this is a positive step for Hudson.

Expect him to be recalled to MLB tonight or tomorrow to avoid using up an option year. He'll likely get 2 games in the majors to earn a spot on the playoff roster.

Back-to-back doubles by CD-Rod and Hicklen pushed the lead to 12-0.

Maybe I was too positive on Hudson’s outing:

Thanks for your insight and field's eye view of the game @MudcatsfaninBrunsCO

Always helps to have locals at the games who gain some input on what we can't always get from watching the games, or from the commentary during the game.

(Or also what Gameday doesn't provide 😂)

You are very welcome! I enjoy covering about my favorite team! I hope all of you can make the trip down to Zebulon, NC next year for the last season before the new stadium! I got the opportunity to meet Chris Edwards before the home playoff game and enjoyed that! Have a great fall and winter! Till March...

Yours in Baseball
