Even the most casual of baseball fans has, at least once, witnessed a pitch down the middle being called a ball or a pitch in the other batter’s box being called a strike.

After limping to a .185/.254/.250 line (45 wRC+) with just two home runs through June 14, the Brewers shortstop has since hit .290/.323/.500 (130 wRC+) with four homers in his last 65 plate appearances....3566Mon, 07 Jul 2025 23:14:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/rhys-hoskins-is-a-huge-loss-for-brewers-who-now-have-to-test-andrew-vaughns-staying-power-r3565/Rhys Hoskins has a Grade 2 sprain of his left thumb, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reported Sunday afternoon.

In his long-awaited return from shoulder surgery, the longest-tenured Brewer tossed six innings of one-run ball, allowing just two hits and striking out eight. Without context, that line could've passed f...3563Mon, 07 Jul 2025 13:06:01 +0000https://brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/milwaukee-brewers/trevor-megill-has-been-excellent-for-brewers-except-in-one-key-area-r3554/Outside of a shaky first month, it has been another solid year for Trevor Megill.
