Andrew Fischer put an exclamation point on a historic season. Top prospect Jesus Made and ascending star Braylon Payne both had big contributions at the plate and on the base paths, sending Biloxi to a decisive Game Three. Game Action: Biloxi pre-game media notes Biloxi 7, Rocket City (Angels) 0 Box Score As always, we encourage you to check out the official writeup from the team: Letson’s Franchise Record-Tying 12 K’s Keeps Shuckers Alive with SLCS Game 2 Shutout - Biloxi Blanks Rocket City to Force Game 3 For Southern League Title The Biloxi Shuckers’ stars shone the brightest when it mattered most, as the team charged to a resounding 7-0 victory in Game 2 of the Southern League Championship on Tuesday night. Biloxi and Rocket City will now square off in a winner-take-all championship finale on Wednesday night in Alabama. Bishop Letson took the ball for the second time in the Southern League Playoffs, and pitched the game of his young career. Rocket City hitters wanted no part of Letson, who dazzled the Trash Pandas for seven scoreless innings. Letson struck out a career-high 12 with no walks and just four hits allowed. Before Letson totally locked in, Rocket City had a threat in the first. However, Josh Adamczewski gunned down a man at the plate (after an off-screen bobble) to keep the game scoreless. Check out the play at the plate courtesy of the Shuckers’ X account: The Angels’ top pitching prospect, Taylor Bremmer, the number two overall pick from the 2025 draft, was on the mound for Rocket City and he and Letson went pitch for pitch to start the game. However, Bremmer left after just five innings and that’s when the Shuckers finally broke through against the Rocket City bullpen. Braylon Payne started the rally with a single, then took second on a pitch in the dirt that bounced in front of the plate. That opportunistic base-running led to the first run of the game when Jesus Made doubled down the line: That brought Andrew Fischer to the plate and the slugger showed why he was named a finalist for MiLB Hitter of the Year by belting his 50th total home run to center: That would be just about all Letson needed as the 22-year-old righty mowed down the Trash Pandas and faced just one over the minimum after the first inning. Here’s Letson’s 12th strikeout, which tied a Biloxi franchise record: The Shuckers did add on two runs in each of the final two frames. Fischer struck again for two more on this double in the 8th: In the 9th, Dylan O’Rae had a bunt single that brought in a run after a throwing error. O’Rae then scored on Made’s RBI single through the drawn-in infield. Made finished with two hits, two runs, two RBI, and a steal. Payne had three hits, two runs and a steal. Adamczewski had the key outfield assist and was also on base three times with a hit and two walks. But it was once again Andrew Fischer who did the heavy lifting for Biloxi with his four RBI night. What will the slugger have in store for a grand finale on a historic season? Wande Torrres came on for Letson and looked absolutely filthy. Only a missed strike three call on an 0-2 pitch to the final hitter of the game prevented Torres from striking out the final six men of the game. Torres and Letson combined to strike out 17 men, leaving the Trash Pandas looking totally bewildered at the plate. The big effort from the two also leaves the bullpen well-rested for Wednesday’s finale. LHP J.D. Thompson (1-0, 1.80 in Southern League Playoffs) gets the ball for the decisive Game 3 on Wednesday. First pitch is scheduled for 6:35PM CT. On a personal note, I just want to say thank you for all of you who read these reports this season. I only discovered BrewerFanatic less than two years ago. Back then I thought I knew something about baseball, but this site, the forums, the writers here, and the other fans showed me I had a lot to learn yet. I especially want to thank Jim Goulart and Brock Beauchamp for helping me along and giving me a chance to have a small taste of a lifelong dream to write about baseball. I am grateful for this experience and the opportunity to broaden my writing ability, grow my ball knowledge, and deepen my appreciation the Brewers' system.

Image courtesy of BrewerFanatic Biloxi took game one of the SLDS with Pensacola. It was a team effort in the box and on the mound. The team will have two games at home to close the series and clinch a spot in the championship. In Nashville, the Sounds started their final week of the season in walk-off fashion. Transaction: Milwaukee Brewers sent RHP Bryse Wilson on a rehab assignment to Nashville Sounds. Not quite a transaction, but "theBrewersFarm" account has the list of Brewers heading to the Arizona Fall League, which was announced Tuesday: Game Action: Nashville pre-game media notes Nashville 5, Memphis (Cardinals) 4, F/11 Box Score First, the Nashville Press Release in full as a linked location is not available this AM: Sounds Walk Off the First-Half Champs in Series Opener Four Different Sounds Record Multi-Hit Games; Brett Wichrowski Earns His Fourth Win of the Season NASHVILLE – The Nashville Sounds secured their eighth walk-off win of the season with a 5-4 extra-innings victory over the Memphis Redbirds Tuesday night at First Horizon Park. Brock Wilken, Brandon Lockridge, Akil Baddoo and Jeferson Quero each tallied a 2-hit game in the win and were responsible for 4-of-the-5 runs contributed. The Sounds jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning as Wilken lined a one-out single into center field. Two at-bats later, Lockridge ripped an RBI-double to center and scored Wilken for the one-run lead. Baddoo followed with his own RBI-single and scored Lockridge for the second run of the game. Memphis immediately tied the game as Coleman Crow issued three singles, including back-to-back RBI-singles. Nashville regained the lead in the bottom of the fourth inning as Quero led off the inning with a base hit into center field. After a wild pitch by Memphis advanced Black into scoring position, Eduardo Garcia drove Black home with an RBI-single to take back the lead. The Redbirds retaliated once again as major league rehabber Bryse Wilson issued two singles, including an RBI-single to make it 3-3. With one out in the frame, Wilson was relieved for Gerson Garabito inheriting the two runners on base and issued a walk to load the bases. Garabito stranded all three runners on base as he issued a fly out to center field to get out of the frame. Blake Holub entered the game in the top of the ninth inning and retired the side in 1-2-3 fashion. The Sounds had not scored in five straight innings as the Redbirds pitching staff retired 16-of-the-last-22 batters faced since the final out of the fourth frame, heading into extra innings. Holub remained in the game for the top of the 10th and issued an RBI-single into center, scoring the placement runner from second and giving the Redbirds their first lead of the game. The Sounds responded in the bottom of the 10th inning as Quero ripped an RBI-single into center field and scored Lockridge from second base to tie the game and head into the 11th. Brett Wichrowski secured the 1-2-3 frame in the top of the 11th inning to give Nashville another opportunity for the walk-off win. Garcia drew a leadoff walk that put two on base. After Jonathan Ornelas dropped a sac bunt towards the first baseman and advanced both runners into scoring position, Wilken ripped a hard grounder at the second baseman and was deep enough to score Rodriguez for the 5-4 walk-off win. Wichrowski earned his fourth win of the season, second in relief, and worked his eighth straight appearance without allowing an earned run. The Sounds and the Redbirds continue the final series of the 2026 season on Wednesday, September 16. First pitch is scheduled for 6:35 p.m. CT and right-hander Carlos Rodriguez (0-6, 7.79 ERA) is scheduled to get the start for Nashville. POSTGAME NOTES: GOT WILK?: Brock Wilken recorded his 15th multi-hit game of the season - first since September 6 vs. Louisville - and finished Tuesday's series opener against the Memphis Redbirds 2-for-5 with a walk, run, and a strikeout. He snapped a four-game hitless streak and bounced back from a 1-for-16 series in Durham last week. He is tied with Tyler Black and Akil Baddoo for the second-most multi-hit games on Nashville's active roster. Entering the night, Wilken was just 5-for-32 (.156) in nine games against the Redbirds this season with three of his hits coming in the matchup on June 20 in Memphis. He was 1-for-20 against the Redbirds over his last six games after his three-hit day. His walk in the bottom of the ninth inning was his 80th of the season, placing him in a tie with Brian Dayett (1982) for the 10th-most in a single-season in Sounds franchise history. KEY LOCK: Brandon Lockridge extended his current hitting streak to five games, tying his season high as part of a multi-hit day. After recording three of the Sounds' five hits over the last two games, he added his fifth multi-hit game, and second in his last three games, finishing Tuesday night 2-for-4 with a double, RBI, two runs, and a strikeout. He is 7-for-19 over his last five games with two doubles, three RBI, and a walk. Since returning to Nashville on August 23, he is hitting .266 (17-for-64) with a hit in 13 of his last 16 games. SO NICE WE DID IT BRYSE: Right-hander Bryse Wilson began his Major League Rehab assignment with 2.1 IP on Tuesday night in his first game action since he landed on the Brewers 15-day IL on August 31. He surrendered one unearned run on four hits with a pair of strikeouts against the Redbirds. In 12 relief appearances for the Brewers this season, Wilson has allowed seven earned runs across 24.2 IP with 22 strikeouts and just one walk. It was his first action in Triple-A since June 11 when he was with Lehigh Valley (PHI). After beginning the season in the Phillies org, Wilson appeared in 12 games for the Iron Pigs, going 3-5 with a 6.29 ERA in 11 starts. Despite pitching in 100 games for the Brewers between 2023-2024 & 2026, Tuesday night was his Nashville debut. He made 72 appearances between Gwinnett (2018-21), Indianapolis (2022), Charlotte (2025) and Lehigh Valley (2026). BROCK-OFF: Nashville's 5-4 walk-off win over Memphis was the Sounds' eighth walk-off win of the year. Brock Wilken delivered the game-winning run with grounder to second base in the bottom of the 11th inning to score Ramon Rodriguez. Wilken is the eighth different player to deliver a walk-off win for Nashville this season. It was the third walk-off of his career. His last was on May 25 of last year for Double-A Biloxi when he also reached on a fielder's choice. His first career walk-off was a RBI single in the bottom of the ninth to beat the ACL Rangers in his sixth career game. It was Nashville's second time going to 11 innings this year and the first since May 15 against Iowa when the Sounds won 4-3. The Sounds improved to 3-8 in extra innings this year. Earlier we had compiled this report including video evidence - The Sounds started off their final week of play on a happy note with a 5-4 walk-off victory over their in-state rivals Memphis on Tuesday night. Brandon Lockridge got Nashville on the board in the first inning with a two-out run scoring single, seen here courtesy of the Sounds’ X account: Akil Baddoo then chipped one into shallow center to make it 2-0 after one. Coleman Crow (4IP 7H 2R 1ER 1BB 2K) was on the mound for his penultimate start of the season. Crow immediately gave the two-run lead back in the second inning, due in part to his own throwing error. However, the shorter outing, couldn't take the shine off a memorable season for Crow, who managed to stay healthy and make his MLB debut, while throwing his most innings (117) in a season since 2022. The score remained tied at two until the 4th inning when Eduardo Garcia lined an opposite field single to give Nashville the lead 3-2. The rehabbing Bryse Wilson came on for Crow and faced the minimum in the 5th and 6th innings thanks to a double play. In the 7th, the Red Birds tied the game after an error and two singles chased Wilson from the game with the score knotted at 3-3. Neither team could break through in the final two frames, so the game headed to extras. In the 10th, Blake Holub did well to limit Memphis to only one run, with the “ghost runner” scoring on a single to make it 4-3 Memphis. In the home half of the inning, Jeferson Quero followed suit with an RBI single of his own. Ten innings would not be enough to decide things, so Brett Wichrowski was summoned from the Nashville pen to keep the game tied. Wichrowski did just that with his 8th consecutive outing without an earned run (2R in 7.1IP) to give the Sounds a shot at a walk-off. In the 11th, Brock Wilken played hero by putting the ball in play to score the winning run from third: Wilken, Quero, Baddoo, and Lockridge all had two-hit games for the Sounds. RHP Carlos Rodriguez (0-6, 7.79 ERA) will get the ball on Wednesday, in the lone game for the affiliates. Biloxi pre-game media notes Biloxi 6, Pensacola (Marlins) 3 (Game 1 of Best-of-Three Series) Box Score As always, you are encouraged to read the official round-up from the team’s site: Letson, Keith, Wood Lead Shuckers to Win in SLDS Opener - Shuckers take lead in playoff series for first time since 2019, stand one win away from returning to SLCS Biloxi pulled out a hard-fought, tense 6-3 victory in game one of their Southern League Divisional Series in steamy Pensacola on Tuesday night. The game started with some fantastic defense in the first inning. After Dylan O’Rae walked and stole second, Andrew Fischer was robbed on a grounder up the middle to keep the game scoreless. In the bottom of the first inning, center fielder Braylon Payne returned the favor with a defensive gem of his own, on this throw courtesy of the Shuckers’ X account: Bishop Letson (5IP 6H 1R 1ER 3BB 4K) was the beneficiary of the fine defense as he worked around traffic all night on what was a memorable 22nd birthday for the right hander. The game was scoreless until the fifth inning, when Damon Keith continued his season-long assault on Blue Wahoos’ pitching with a mammoth solo shot that is now in orbit somewhere around earth: Keith came into the game with six home runs, a 1.184 OPS, and 22 RBI in 18 games against Pensacola this season. O’Rae then added to the lead with a smash to second that was too hot to handle, making it 2-0 Shuckers. It was good to see O’Rae contributing all over the field on Tuesday after a tough second half. O’Rae was so pivotal to the Shuckers’ early season success with his ludicrous on-base rate and propensity for base thievery. Pensacola got one back in their half of the fifth on a two-out single to leftfielder Josh Adamczewski that was fired into home a beat late. That cut the lead to 2-1 Biloxi. In the sixth inning, the Shuckers broke the game open with a three-run rally. First, Adamczewski looped a ball to third base that sidewinded into the Shuckers’ bullpen to make it 3-1. Then catcher Matthew Wood tested the other baseline with a two-run double into the rightfield corner to make it 5-1 Biloxi: Then the game was in the hands of both teams’ bullpens, which would not inspire much confidence among any Shuckers’ fans who watched the team since the beginning of August. Wande Torres was the first man to get the call and after a scoreless 6th inning, Torres was burned by a two-out single in the 7th that cut the lead to 5-3. However, the difference in the final two frames was the execution of big pitches in clutch moments as Travis Smith and Ryan Birchard combined for four strikeouts, with just one hit allowed in the final 2.1 innings to slam the door. The Wahoos’ bullpen walked four men in the final three innings, much to the chagrin of the vocal Pensacola fans in attendance. On a night when the temperature was 86 degrees with 83 percent humidity, tempers boiled over with the home plate umpire’s strike zone. In the stands, in the dugout, and on the mound, everyone was chirping and demonstrative with the umpire as Pensacola closer Jake Sellinger lost the zone late in the game. In the 9th, Keith added an insurance run on a double to give the Shuckers the winning margin of 6-3. Keith, Wood, and Fischer all had two-hit days for Biloxi, who struck out 15 times as a team. O’Rae and Mike Boeve were each on base three times with two walks and a hit apiece. Wish to see all those clips in news report view? Biloxi's WLOX has you covered as they put together all the clips of the road game. LHP J.D. Thompson (0-3, 4.33 ERA in 27IP at AA) will make the biggest start of his career (18 starts across three levels this season) in game two on Thursday night. It will be the 2025 2nd-round pick’s 7th start at AA this season. Eliazar Dishmey (4-1, 3.30 ERA, 92K in 71IP at AA) will take the hill for Pensacola. Well friends, that's the last scheduled Tuesday games for the Brewers' affiliates. However, I have a good feeling the Shuckers are going through to the Southern League championship. If that's the case. I hope to see you back here next week to celebrate their title, and then I will bid you adieu at that time. Thanks for reading!

Daniel Dickinson and Eric Bitonti were both installed into the lineup immediately and got their first AA hits. Andrew Fischer narrowly missed a grand slam, but the Biloxi offense could not keep pace with Pensacola in a 15-7 beatdown. Transactions: Biloxi Shuckers transferred C David García to the Development List. 2B Daniel Dickinson assigned to Biloxi Shuckers from Wisconsin Timber Rattlers.

Game Action: Biloxi pre-game media notes Pensacola (Marlins) 15, Biloxi 7 Box Score Please check out the official team recap here: Made Ties Chourio for Single-Season RBI Record, Shuckers Fall to Blue Wahoos - Bitonti, Dickinson record first Double-A hits in 22-run slugfest As has been the case for much of the second half, Biloxi’s bats did their part, but the Shuckers were done in by a brutal night from their pitching staff in Tuesday’s 15-7 rout to Pensacola. The game got off to a promising start with a single by Braylon Payne and then walks to Jesus Made and Josh Adamczewski to load the bases for MiLB home run leader Andrew Fischer. Fischer then missed a grand slam by mere inches, singling off the top of the wall to give Biloxi only a 1-0 lead. Damon Keith added a single to make it 2-0 and then Eric Bitonti lifted a sac fly to give Biloxi a 3-0 lead after half an inning. Check out Fischer’s blast and Keith’s single here, courtesy of the Shuckers’ X account: Manuel Rodriguez (4IP 6H 3H 3ER 2BB 4K) started and had his shortest outing since June, lasting just four innings. Rodriguez immediately gave a run back in the bottom of the first, after three consecutive singles and then a sac fly. The score remained 3-1 until the 4th, when newly promoted Daniel Dickinson created havoc on the basepaths with his 61st steal of the season, then scored on a throwing error. Later Adamczewski would make it 5-1 with a single: Rodriguez then gave the two runs back in the bottom of the fourth before exiting for Jesús Broca, who pitched a scoreless inning. Unfortunately for Bilxoi, the game turned from there. The Shuckers offense managed just one hit from innings five through eight, while both Shuckers' pitchers who entered after Broca were shelled. Pensacola took the lead for good in the 6th off Wande Torres (2.1IP 7H 8R 7ER 3BB 2K) and then put the game away with a massive nine-run 8th inning. In total the Shuckers' pitchers surrendered 17 hits and six walks, In the 9th, Biloxi got back-to back dingers from Made and Adamczewski: For Made, it tied the Shuckers' single season record for RBI. However, it was far too little, too late. The Shuckers pounded out 11 hits and six walks as an offense. Payne led the way with a three-hit day and now sports a .819 OPS at the level. Adamczewski was on base four times, scored twice, and drove in two. Fischer had two hits and now has a whopping 112 RBI on the season. RHP Bishop Letson (6-6, 5.09 ERA) will make his final start of the season on Wednesday, in his final tune up before next week’s playoffs.

Image courtesy of BrewerFanatic The offense was quiet across the system on Tuesday, as only Biloxi managed to score more than four runs across the four games. However, Nashville made the most of their hits in a walk-off winner, and a 2026 draft pick came up clutch for Wisconsin. Back in Biloxi, the Shuckers' offense was back on the gas, with Andrew Fischer in the driver's seat once again. Rylan Mills starred for Wilson in their defeat.

Game Action: Nashville pre-game media notes Nashville 3, Louisville (Reds) 2 Box Score As always, you are encouraged to read the official round-up from the team’s site: Tyler Black Walks Off Bats in Series Opener - Black is the 6th different Sound to record a walk off this season Nashville didn’t muster much offense on Tuesday, but they made the most of their four hits on their way to a thrilling walk-off victory. The Sounds’ first 17 hitters of the game were retired in order before Eduardo Garcia drew a two out walk in the 6th inning. Garcia then stole second and came around to score on Brandon Lockridge’s single to give the Sounds a 1-0 lead. The Sounds pitching staff was not perfect, but the combination of Thomas Pannone (4IP 5K), Lyon Richardson (2IP 2K), Brett Wichrowski (.1IP) and Gerson Garabito managed to make the 1-0 lead hold up all the way until the 8th inning. Then a soft infield single and a long ball put Louisville in front for the first time at 2-1. The Sounds couldn’t rally in the 8th and it looked like they might be in for heartbreak. After Jared Koenig delivered a scoreless 9th, the Sounds came up clutch in their final at-bat to steal the victory. Brock Wilken led off with a single. Blake Burke drew a walk. After an Akil Baddoo strikeout, Jeferson Quero put the runners into scoring position on a ground out to set the stage for Tyler Black. Black ripped a 2-1 cutter into the gap, just out of the reach of the diving centerfielder to give Nashville the victory. Here’s the winner, courtesy of the Sounds’ X account: It was a nice moment for the 26-year-old Black, who sported a .311/.441/.473 slash line in August. Nashville improves to 72-60 on the season with the win. Wednesday’s starter is TBD. Biloxi 8, Birmingham (White Sox) 7 Box Score Fischer Blasts 43rd Home Run, Shuckers Clinch Winning Record at Home with Win - Brewers No. 5 prospect pulls into tie for 11th-most home runs in a minor league season Biloxi erased an early three-run deficit and outlasted Birmingham, 8-7, on Tuesday night. After falling behind 3-0 in the first inning, Biloxi answered immediately with Andrew Fischer's two-run homer, his 23rd of the season, and 43rd overall: Biloxi then took their first lead in the third on Mike Boeve's two-run double that just missed leaving the yard. The Shuckers collected 10 hits and drew nine walks in the victory, and Fischer paced the offense, going 3-for-4 with a home run, three RBIs and two runs scored. Boeve finished 3-for-5 with a double and three RBIs. Josh Adamczewski reached base four times and scored four runs, and Matthew Wood added a pair of hits, including the go-ahead RBI single in the eighth inning. On the hill for Biloxi, Josh Knoth made his AA debut and while the results were not there (5IP 4ER 3HR), Shuckers announcer Javik Blake reported that the stuff was looking good: Garrett Hodges earned the win with two scoreless innings of relief, retiring Birmingham over the final two frames to secure the 8-7 comeback victory. After a rough month of August, Biloxi starts September on the right note and improves to 60-63 on the season. Hopefully the Shuckers can find their groove again with the playoffs looming. Manuel Rodriguez (12-4 4.76 ERA) takes the mound for Biloxi on Wednesday Wisconsin pre-game media notes Wisconsin 4, Beloit (Marlins) 2 Box Score Strosnider’s Late Homer Beats Beloit - Wisconsin stops Sky Carp 4-2 Wisconsin kicked off their final series of the season with late inning victory over Beloit on Tuesday thanks to some stellar pitching and a pair of home runs. In the first inning, Juan Ortuno, who was promoted to Wisconsin just this week, homered on the first pitch he saw at the level for a two-run home run. Check out the blast courtesy of Wisconsin’s X account: The 19-year-old Ortuno had just four home runs in 103 games in Wilson prior to his promotion. Ethan Dorchies started on the mound for Wisconsin and pitched well enough to hold serve over the first five innings. Dorchies was tagged for a pair of solo home runs in the 2nd and 3rd innings, but managed to work around some traffic due in part to six strikeouts. Tanner Perry (W, 3-1) came on in relief for Dorchies and kept things knotted at 2-2 with two scoreless innings. Perry was key as the Rattlers’ offense (just four hits, two walks, and 10 strikeouts) was rather fangless much of the evening. That all changed with one swing of the bat from Sawyer Strosnider in the 8th inning as the 2026 2nd round draft belted a two-run home run to give Wisconsin the lead: Bjorn Johnson then came on to close out the game with two scoreless innings to earn his third save of the season. On the night, the Rattlers’ pitching staff combined for 10 strikeouts. Wisconsin is now 66-56 on the season. Miqueas Mercedes (2.81 ERA in 73.2IP with Wilson) will get his first start in High A for the Rattlers on Wednesday. Wilson pre-game media notes Fredericksburg (Nationals) 11, Wilson 3 Box Score Wilson’s final series of the season got off to a tough start, as the playoff-bound Fredericksburg affiliate clobbered the Warbirds early and often. Joey Broughton started on the hill for Wilson and was tagged for seven runs on nine hits in his three innings of work. Broughton also allowed three home runs on his way to his sixth defeat on the season, exiting the game trailing 7-1. Wenderlyn King and Ismael Yanez came on in relief and didn’t fare much better as both hurlers surrendered two runs in two innings of work. Offensively the only highlights for the Warbirds were the home runs from Rylan Mills in the second and fourth innings. Mills now has four home runs and seven RBI in his last five games. The rest of the Warbirds offense managed just two singles and two walks, while striking out 10 times on the evening. In the 9th inning, Frederi Montero drew a bases loaded walk to plate the final run for Wilson. Unfortunately, Jose Anderson and Filippo Di Turi each struck out to leave the bases loaded to end the game It was the seventh consecutive loss for Wilson, who fall to 64-61 on the season. RHP Ma'Kale Holden (1-2, 8.12 ERA in 37.2 IP in ACL play), the 20th round pick in 2025’s draft, will make his Carolina League debut on Wednesday. It’s an early 10AM CT start for Wilson on Wednesday.

Image courtesy of BrewerFanatic Nashville got contributions up and down the lineup, presenting an interesting question around who may get called up to Milwaukee next week. Biloxi's struggles in the month of August continued. Wisconsin pulled out a narrow victory and Wilson split a doubleheader in which we saw the Ebel brothers combine on a box score oddity. Transactions: Milwaukee Brewers sent LHP JoJo Romero on a rehab assignment to Wisconsin Timber Rattlers. Milwaukee Brewers sent RHP Abner Uribe on a rehab assignment to Wisconsin Timber Rattlers. SS Moises Polanco assigned to Wilson Warbirds from ACL Brewers. Game Action: Nashville 14, Jacksonville (Marlins) 6 Box Score No link available for the Sounds' formal game summary, so it is pasted here: Sounds Cruise to Fourth Straight Win Tyler Black Goes 3-for-4 with Three RBI JACKSONVILLE, FL – Nashville began a six-game series against the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp with a 14-6 win on Tuesday night at VyStar Ballpark. Tyler Black finished the night 3-for-4 with three RBI, falling a single shy of the cycle. The Sounds jumped out to a 14-0 lead with a pair of 5+ run innings and finished the night with 16 hits, including five different multi-hit games, eight extra-base hits, and three home runs to pick up their fourth straight win. Akil Baddoo got the scoring started with a solo home run in the top of the second off Jacksonville starter Brandon White (3.0 IP, 8 H, 7 ER, 3 K). The lead grew to seven runs after putting together a six-run third that saw Luke Adams and Black each record RBI triples in the frame. It was the first hit of the night for both, who each ended with 3-hit nights at the plate and combined to go 6-for-9 with four extra-base hits, four RBI, two walks, and three runs scored. Nashville used seven hits in the inning to plate their six runs and batted around before chasing White from the ballgame. Black added to his night with his second extra-base hit, making it a 8-0 advantage with a RBI double in the top of the fifth, scoring Baddoo for a third time after he drew a leadoff walk to start the inning. Nashville was back to work in the top of the sixth and once again sent all nine to the plate in the inning. Each of the first three reached base load the bases for Blake Burke who doubled home a pair of runs to make it 10-0. Baddoo added his third RBI of the night with a sacrifice fly and the first out of the inning. Brock Wilken extended the Nashville lead to 13-0 with his team-leading 14th home run of the season and cap a five-run inning. With position player Gage Miller on the mound for the Jumbo Shrimp in the top of the eighth, Black added his third hit, extra-base hit, and RBI of the night with a one-out solo home run to make it 14-0. Each of the next two batters were retired, making it a tall task to have another at-bat in the top of the ninth needing just a single to complete the cycle. Adams recorded his third hit of the game with a two-out single in the top of the ninth before Burke was retired on strikes - with Black sitting three batters behind in the lineup. Left-hander Colton Gordon worked five scoreless innings on the mound for Nashville as he picked up his first win since being acquired by Milwaukee. He surrendered four hits, struck out four and issued a walk in his outing. Joel Kuhnel tossed a scoreless inning in the sixth in relief before passing the baton to Gerson Garabito. The right-hander breezed through the bottom of the seventh, stranding a two-out single to Matthew Etzel before returning to the mound to begin the eighth. A three-base fielding error for Baddoo started a run of three-straight Jacksonville batters reaching base. Cam Cannarella broke up the shutout bid with a RBI double and would immediately score on a RBI single to make it 14-2. Garabito retired the next two before handing the reins to Garrett Stallings. A single and two-out walk to load the bases followed with Etzel turning a 14-0 Nashville lead entering the inning to a 14-6 ballgame with a grand slam. Blake Holub tossed a 1-2-3 bottom of the ninth, with back-to-back strike outs to start the inning as he spun his sixth straight appearance without an earned run allowed. Nashville continues their two-week road trip with game two of the series against the Jumbo Shrimp on Wednesday night with first pitch slated for 6:05 p.m. RHP Coleman Crow (8-1, 3.13 ERA) is scheduled to get the start for the Sounds. POSTGAME NOTES: THREES COMPANY: Tyler Black finished the night 3-for-4 with 3-RBI, falling a single shy of the cycle to start the series against the Jumbo Shrimp. It was his first three-hit game for Nashville since June 20 and third overall this season, including the first 3-hit MLB game of his professional career on April 28 vs. Arizona. Tuesday night was the first game of his professional career (501 G) with three XBH. He had only previously had 15 games with multiple XBH in the same game entering Tuesday with his last coming during that June 20 performance against Memphis where he finished 3-for-5 with a home run, triple, and RBI. Tuesday's series opener against Jacksonville was his sixth 3+ RBI game this year between Nashville and Milwaukee. Black is hitting .302 (19-for-63) with six XBH and 11 RBI in 18 games in August. He has recorded multi-hit performances in back-to-back games and has a hit in 13 of the 18 games this month. BROCKET POWER: Brock Wilken hit his team-leading 14th home run of the season on Tuesday night in Jacksonville and has three homers in the month of August (19 G). He's putting together his best month of the year, hitting .246 (17-for-69) with eight XBH, 14 RBI, 13 walks, and nine runs scored in August. He's riding a seven-game hitting streak with consecutive multi-hit games and has an XBH in four straight games. With five games remaining in the month, Wilken is looking to finish with the highest AVG in a single month this season after hitting .233 (14-for-60) across his 18 games in June. He ranks T-6th in RBI (71) and walks (75) and sits 7th in doubles (22) in the Brewers farm system this season. 38-of-70 (54%) hits in Triple-A this year for Wilken have gone for XBH. GONE STREAKING: Brock Wilken is leading four different Nashville players riding current hitting streaks of 5+ games after all four recorded a hit on Tuesday night against Jacksonville. Wilken has a hit in seven straight games since August 16, including four straight games with an XBH. Bo Naylor has a hit in each of his last six games (.346 AVG, 3 HR, 9 RBI), Eric Brown Jr. (.438 AVG, HR, RBI) and Ethan Murray (.278 AVG, 2 HR, 4 RBI) each have a hit in five straight. Murray has crossed the plate in each of his last seven games and has reached base in each of his last 10 overall dating back to August 13. Luke Adams is riding an 11-game on-base streak after finishing Tuesday night 3-for-5 with a triple and RBI for his first 3+ hit game since July 10 at Charlotte. After allowing a pair of runs on three hits in his first rehab game with Nashville on August 2 (0.2 IP), Joel Kuhnel has rattled off eight straight scoreless appearances (8.1 IP) on four hits. Right-hander Blake Holub extended his current streak of appearances without an earned run allowed to six straight games and has allowed just two earned runs over his last 19 games since the start of July. *** Nashville pounded Jacksonville into submission on Tuesday night, jumping out to a 14-run lead at one point, on their way to an easy 14-6 victory. As a team, Nashville collected 16 hits, including a whopping eight extra base hits (three doubles, two triples, and three home runs.) Some of the Sounds’ players most likely to get called up to the parent club next week are shone bright in this one. Akil Baddoo opened the scoring with a home run for Nashville. Baddoo, who has been on the Brewers’ 40 man roster all season, also added a two run double and scored three runs. Luke Adams, in his second game back from his most recent injury, was on base four times with three hits, including a triple. Tyler Black also had three hits and a triple. You can check out both players triples here, courtesy of the Sounds’ X account: Brock Wilken hit his 14th home run of the season: Every single player in the Sounds lineup had at least one hit and one run scored. It was a total team effort offensively. On the mound, Colton Gordon had his first scoreless outing with Nashville, and picked up his first win as a member of the Brewers’ organization. Gordon tossed five innings and struck out four. Joel Kuhnel and Blake Holub each tossed scoreless innings in relief as well. Jacksonville did manage to strike for six runs in the 8th inning, including a grand slam, but by then the game was well out of reach. With their 4th consecutive win, Nashville is now 69-57 on the season but looks like a long shot to make a playoff push. With more offense like we saw on Tuesday, perhaps they could chip away at the 5.5 game deficit and make it interesting in September. Biloxi pre-game media notes Knoxville (Cubs) 9, Biloxi 4 Box Score As always, you are encouraged to read the official round-up from the team’s site: Payne Hits First Double-A Home Run in Shuckers Loss to Knoxville - Brewers No. 2 prospect, Peña, extends hit streak to seven Biloxi’s dreadful month of August continued on Tuesday with a 9-4 defeat to Knoxville. The loss drops Biloxi to 2-19 in the month of August. In what has felt like a common characteristic of many of these losses, the Shuckers fell behind early and did not get enough pitching to keep the game close for their prospect-laden lineup. Knoxville got on the board in the first inning thanks to some batted ball luck. Three balls were sent top prospect Jesus Made’s way in the first and he was not able to corral any of the three for an out. Though none of the plays were necessarily routine, you would like to see your best player come up with one of those balls to get through the opening frame unscathed. However, the Biloxi pitching did not do enough to keep the game competitive from there, issuing nine walks and two HBP to go along with the 14 hits allowed. Jesus Broca gave the Shuckers a shot to tie the game with 2.1 IP scoreless. Unfortunately, the Shuckers offense didn’t have much going, with just six hits in the game. The lone extra base hit was Braylon Payne’s first AA home run, which you can see here courtesy of the Shuckers’ X account: Andrew Fischer had two singles and an RBI sac fly. Despite falling behind early 4-1, the Shuckers managed to tie the game at 4-4 on a balk, but Knoxville immediately responded with a three-run rally the next frame and then added two insurance runs in the 9th to seal the Shuckers’ fate. The Shuckers are the lone Brewers’ affiliate under .500 at 56-61 with the loss. However, they’re also likely to be the only affiliate playing in the playoffs due to their play in the first half. Hopefully the Shuckers can right things in time for the playoffs over the next few weeks. RHP Manuel Rodriguez (11-4, 4.82 ERA) will look to turn the tide on Wednesday when he toes the slab for Biloxi. Wisconsin pre-game media notes Wisconsin 4, South Bend (Cubs) 3 Box Score Rattlers Crack Cubs - Romero and Uribe both toss scoreless innings on rehab assignments from Milwaukee Wisconsin got their penultimate week of the season off to a good start with a tight 4-3 victory over South Bend on Tuesday. After Jojo Romero made his Brewers’ organization debut with a quick 11-pitch first inning, the Rattlers quickly grabbed the lead in the bottom of the frame. Daniel Dickinson and Sawyer Strosnider singled to set the table for Eric Bitonti. Bitonti then roped a double to the deepest part of the field to give the Rattlers an early 2-0 lead. Bitonti has 19 RBI in the month of August, but is still striking out far too often (30K in 77AB). Abner Uribe worked a clean second inning, including snaring a comebacker. Hopefully Uribe doesn’t need many innings to feel healthy again and he can rejoin the big league club soon. After Uribe, Josh Knoth (6IP 7H 3R 2ER 1BB 4K) took over, and despite working around quite a bit of traffic, was just good enough to earn his 5th win of the season. Strosnider paced the Rattlers with a three-hit day and gave the Rattlers the lead for good in the fifth inning with his RBI double. The Brewers’ 2026 2nd round pick now sports a .947 OPS in his first 47 at-bats. Tyler Rodriguez added an important insurance run with a late solo home run in the bottom of the 7th. Tayden Hall had two singles and Luis Castillo drew three walks on the night for the Rattlers. You can see all the highlights here, courtesy of the Rattlers’ YouTube page: Wisconsin improves to 63-53 on the season but are still five games back of a playoff spot. RHP Ethan Dorchies (5-9, 5.10 ERA) has had an up and down month of August. If the trend continues, we should see a bounce-back performance when he takes the mound for Wisconsin on Wednesday. Wilson pre-game media notes Game 1: Wilson 12, Hickory (Rangers) 4 (Completion of July 19 game) Game 2: Hickory 8, Wilson 5, F/7 Warbirds, Crawdads Split Doubleheader - Warbirds Score 12 in Game One Game 1 Box Score Wilson handily won their completion of their July 19 rainout with Hickory in what will live on as a box score oddity. Before rain halted play in July the Warbirds got off to a big six run first inning, sending 10 men to the plate and scoring six runs. Dearly departed Juan Martinez had a two run single, and Handelfry Encarnacion had two hits and a steal in the opening frame. When the game restarted in Tuesday, Brady Ebel was set to lead off with a 2-0 count, but Ebel has since been promoted to Wisconsin, so his younger brother Trey Ebel pinch hit for him and walked. Does it count as the two brothers playing together if they both appeared in the same box score, but not on the field together? That’ll make for a fun trivia question years from now. Article with Trey Ebel quotes via MLB.com - Brewers' 2026 first-rounder Trey Ebel steps in for brother Brady ... a month later Jarrette Bonet started the game for Wilson on the mound and had quite possibly his best start of the season. Bonet scattered three hits across six scoreless innings and struck out eight. The innings and strikeouts matched season-highs for Bonet. This was just the second scoreless outing (aside from 3IP in relief on August 7) for Bonet since May 22. In the fifth inning, the Warbirds added on to their lead with back-to-back home runs from Filippo Di Turi and Rylan Mills to make it 9-0. Check out Di Turi’s homer here, courtesy of the Warbirds X account and Mills' blast at the link earlier in this paragraph: Hayden Robinson came on for Bonet and proceeded to allow a grand slam in the seventh inning but then locked down Hickory the rest of the way. Brailyn Antunez responded in the Wilson 8th with an RBI single and Kyle Jones added a sac fly to make it 12-4 and the Warbirds closed the door on any notion of a comeback. Game 2 Box Score In game two of the doubleheader, Wilson fell behind early and then could never manage to catch up, falling 8-5 in seven innings. Hickory jumped on starter Joey Broughton (3IP 2H 4R 3ER 3BB 3K) for two runs in the first and never looked back. Di Turi cut the lead in half in the second on an RBI single, but Hickory answered with two runs in each of the 4th and 5th to put the game out of reach. Carsten Sabathia III hit a mammoth homer to cut the lead to 4-2. Sabathia has put up some video game numbers (.405 average, 1.158 OPS) in his first 11 professional games. Fellow 2026 draft pick Kyle Jones had the other RBI for Wilson on a single in the 9th to cap the scoring. With the split, Wilson is 64-55 in their inaugural season.

Image courtesy of BrewerFanatic It was an ugly night across the system for the Brewers' affiliates. Nashville was walked off. Biloxi dropped their 12th straight. Wisconsin lost a close one and Wilson was embarrassed. Sprinkled in, we saw some familiar faces in new places for the second straight week. The silver lining came in the DSL, where regular season play concluded and the DSL Gold squad clinched their division title.

Game Action: Norfolk (Baltimore) 8, Nashville 7 Box Score NOTE: There is currently not an online link available for the Sounds-provided summary, so we provide it directly here: Sounds Walked Off in Norfolk Tyler Black Belts Third Career Grand Slam NORFOLK, VA – Nashville suffered an 8-7 walk-off loss in Norfolk on Tuesday night to open a 12-game road trip. The Sounds tied the game with a ninth inning run but saw the Tides answer with the game-winner in the bottom of inning as Nashville was handed their eighth walk-off loss of the season. Sounds starter Colton Gordon saw Norfolk take a 4-0 lead after two innings and before the Sounds could even get a baserunner aboard off Norfolk starter Nestor German. Gordon loaded the bases in the bottom of the first off a walk, single, and hit batter with the first run of the game scoring via a sacrifice fly. The Tides leadoff batter in the bottom of the second singled his way aboard and advanced into scoring position on a throwing error by Brock Wilken. Gordon battled back to retire each of the next two but a two-out bunt single RBI scored Luis Vazquez from second on the play. Rece Hinds proceeded to make it a 4-0 game with a two-run home run to right field. Gordon finished his night after 4.0 IP with four runs allowed on four hits and struck out three with a pair of walks. Luis Matos served as the first baserunner of the game for Nashville after he led off the top of the third with a single. He was followed aboard by Ethan Murray who drew a walk and Freddy Zamora who also singled in his return to the Nashville lineup to load the bases. Tyler Black cleared them with his second grand slam of the season and third of his career to even the score at 4-4. Nashville took their first lead of the game in the fifth after Jeferson Quero doubled home Bo Naylor with a two-out RBI. Wilken made it a two-run Nashville advantage with his 13th home run of the season to begin the top of the sixth. After two scoreless innings in relief for Carlos Rodriguez, Brett Wichrowski took over on the mound for Nashville in the bottom of the seventh. Three straight one-out hits brought the Tides within a run after Heston Kjerstad doubled home a run and pushed the tying run to third. Wichrowski induced a ground ball to Murray who went home on the play to try and nab Hinds on a play at the plate. The tag by Naylor was late as Hinds scored with Kjerstad also able to score standing up on the play as the ball rolled away from Naylor towards the Norfolk dugout. In the top of the ninth with Nashville down a run, Zamora walked and stole second. Naylor added his lone hit of the night to score Zamora and tie the game at 7-7. It was the fourth straight game with a RBI for Naylor who has recorded eight total over his last four games played. Back-to-back flyouts from the heart of the Sounds batting order sent the game to the bottom of the ninth. Garrett Stallings was back on the mound after relieving Wihcrowski in the bottom of the seventh and stranding a two-out triple in the eighth. Hinds and Kjerstad each tallied their third hit of the night with singles to begin the inning with a wild pitch pushing both up an extra base and left Hinds standing on third as the potential winning run. A walk issued by Stallings loaded the bases for Jose Barrero who hit a ball deep enough to left field to allow Hinds to dash home for a third time and the walk-off win. The Sounds and Tides will continue their six-game series on Wednesday night at Harbor Park. First pitch is scheduled for 5:35 p.m. LHP Thomas Pannone (4-1, 4.09 ERA) will get the start for Nashville in game two of the series. POSTGAME NOTES: SLAMMIN SOUNDS, PT. 11: Tyler Black hit his second grand slam of the season and third of his career on Tuesday night in Norfolk. Black is now tied for the most grand slams hit by a Nashville player in their career. Erick Peterson and J.R. House also each hit three over their time in Nashville. Peterson hit two during the 1981 season and added his third in 1983 while House hit all three of his during the 2004 season. Black is the 17th different Nashville player to record multiple grand slams in the same season, and the fifth to do it this season, joining Brock Wilken, Luke Adams, Akil Baddoo, and Eddys Leonard. Nashville leads all Minor League Baseball with 11 grand slams this season. High-A Dayton (CIN), Double-A Somerset (NYY), and Double-A Springfield (STL) have each hit nine this year and are tied for second behind the Sounds. The 11 grand slams add to a historic season for Nashville, who had never hit more than six in any single season entering the year. BAYSIDE BROCKETS: Brock Wilken tied the team lead with his 13th home run of the season on Tuesday in Norfolk. He tied Luke Adams atop the Nashville leaderboard for round trippers and leads the club with his 65 RBI this season. The 13 long balls are the third-most Wilken has recorded in a single-season of his professional career behind his 18 in 2025 with Double-A Biloxi and 17 he hit in 2024 with the Shuckers. Wilken has 53 career home runs and is now tied for the second-most in the farm system since 2023 along with former Sound Wes Clarke. Eric Bitonti leads all Brewers minor leaguers over the span with his 56 home runs. R-BO-I: Bo Naylor recorded his fourth straight game with a RBI after plating Freddy Zamora in the top of the ninth inning on Tuesday night to tie the game at 7-7. Naylor has eight RBI total over his last four games played. He is the eighth different Nashville player to have a RBI streak of 4+ games this season for Nashville and the first since Luke Adams (July 9-17). Cooper Pratt posted a RBI in five straight games to lead all Nashville players. Since appearing in his first game with Nashville on August 4, Naylor is hitting .270 (10-for-37) with a double, three home runs, 10 RBI, and seven runs scored. Since making his Triple-A debut with Columbus in 2022, Naylor has produced 129 RBI in 180 games with 38 doubles and 38 home runs in Triple-A. Nashville lost a heartbreaker on Tuesday, rallying back from an early four run deficit to take the lead in the middle portion of the game, only to get walked off in the 9th. Colton Gordon (4IP 4H 4R 4ER 2BB 3K) started and put the Sounds in an early hole, but was bailed out when Tyler Black delivered a game-tying grand slam in the third inning, courtesy of the Sounds’ X account: In the 5th, Jeferson Quero popped a ground rule double into the wind to give the Sounds the lead, and then Brock Wilken extended the lead with his 13th home run of the year: Carlos Rodriguez gave the Sounds a chance with two shutout innings, but then the bullpen faltered. Brett Wichrowski continued his difficult season allowing three runs (two earned) while retiring just one batter in the seventh. That gave Salem a 7-6 lead heading into the 9th. In the 9th, the freshly activated Freddy Zamora walked, stole second, and then scored on a Bo Naylor single. But in the bottom half of the inning, the wheels fell off for Garrett Stallings. Stallings allowed a pair of singles, a wild pitch, and a walk to load the bases with nobody out. A sac fly then gave the walk-off win to Salem. The loss drops the Sounds to 65-56 on the season. Wednesday's starter is TBD. Biloxi pre-game media notes Rocket City (Angels) 7, Biloxi 3 Box Score As always, you are encouraged to read the official round-up from the team’s site: Peña Records 1st Double-A Hit, Shuckers Drop Opener to Trash Pandas - Thompson sets new career-high with eight strikeouts, Cruz strikes out seven in relief The tough times continued for Biloxi on Tuesday as the Shuckers once again fell behind early on their way to a 7-3 loss, their 12th consecutive defeat. 2025 2nd-round pick JD Thompson took his second start at AA and struck out a career high eight in four innings of work. Unfortunately Thompson allowed two runs in the first and another in the third and the Trash Pandas never looked back. The Shuckers’ prospect-laden lineup managed just five hits on the night. Luis Pena made his AA debut playing third base and collected his first hit, courtesy of the Biloxi X account: Damon Keith had the only extra-base hit for the Shuckers, with a run-scoring double to open the scoring: The other RBIs came courtesy of an Andrew Fischer sac fly and a Mike Boeve ground out. Stiven Cruz came on for Thompson and struck out seven in three innings of work. However, the bullpen couldn’t keep the game close as Rocket City responded to Biloxi’s rallies and were never really threatened until late in the game. In the top of the 9th, the Shuckers loaded the bases on an error, a walk, and a single. That brought Braylon Payne to the plate as the tying run, but Payne struck out to end the game. The loss drops the Shuckers below .500 (55-56) for the first time since May 27th. No starter has been named for Wednesday’s game. Wisconsin pre-game media notes Lake County (Guardians) 4, Wisconsin 3 Box Score Captains Steer Past Rattlers - Lake County’s late run tops Wisconsin Wisconsin dropped a tough defeat, losing 4-3 at home to Lake County on Tuesday. The game started out well, as Brady Ebel, in his Wisconsin debut, drew the first of his four walks to open the game. The rehabbing Cooper Pratt then singled, and eventually both players scored on Eric Bitonti’s clutch two-out two-run single. You can see all the highlights below from the Rattlers’ YouTube page. Unfortunately after the hot start, Wisconsin would not manage much offense the rest of the game. After Lake County had rallied off Rattlers’ starter Jacob Morrison (3.2IP 3H 3R 3ER 3BB 5K) to take a 3-2 lead, Pratt tied the game with a sac fly in the fifth. Wisconsin managed just five hits on the night and was 1-for-9 with RISP. The game remained knotted at three until the 8th, when Lake County used a HBP, double, and sac fly to take the lead. Andrew Healy was the tough luck loser in this one, despite throwing four innings of one-run ball with seven strikeouts. Healy has a 16:2 K:BB rate through his first 14 innings at the level. With the defeat, the Rattlers drop to 3.5 games back in the second half standings. RHP Josh Knoth (4-3, 4.68 ERA) takes the mound in the early game on Wednesday. Wilson pre-game media notes Salem (Red Sox) 21, Wilson 4 Box Score Wilson Allows Season Highs in Big Loss - Ebel Records First Hit Wilson was steamrolled in their series opening loss to Salem on Tuesday night. Salem put up three touchdowns across the first five innings of the game on their way to a 21-4 drubbing of the Warbirds. Joan Pena (2.1 IP 10ER), Thomas Conrad (1.2IP 5ER) and Enderson Mercado (.2IP 6ER) were all battered by the RidgeYaks’ lineup. Salem tallied rallies of 4-1-7-3-6 runs to open the game as the carousel kept spinning all night long. Only Ismael Yanez (1.1IP 1H 2B 2K) and seldom used backup catcher Eric Martinez (2IP 3H) got through the game unscathed. Perhaps the Salem offense tired themselves out by the 6th inning of play. The Warbirds did manage nine hits on offense. Juan Ortuno led the team with three hits, including a double, three steals and two runs scored. Brailyn Antunez continued his torrid stretch at Wilson with another multi-hit game, while Carsten Sabathia III doubled twice. Antunez is now carrying a 1.271 OPS through his first 18 games in Low A. Trey Ebel made his full-season debut and picked up right where his brother Brady left off with a hit and two walks. LHP Joey Broughton (0-3, 5.55 ERA) will make his 7th start (12th appearance) on Wednesday as Wilson will look to flush this one from memory as quickly as possible. DSL Brewers Gold 15, DSL Pirates Gold 6 Box Score The DSL Brewers Gold concluded their regular season on Tuesday with a resounding 15-6 victory over DSL Pirates Gold. The Brewers jumped all over the Pirates early and the outcome was never in doubt after the second inning. In the first inning Ricki Moneys and Leanders Matos each walked and stole base, then Josue Rodriguez plated them both on an RBI single to make it 2-1 Brewers. In the second inning, the Brewers sent 13 men to the plate and scored eight runs to put the game out of reach. Moneys had a two-run triple and Fernandez had the big blast with a three-run home run, part of a five RBI day for the 17-year-old left fielder. The hectic second inning featured six walks, four wild pitches, a balk, and an error. As a team, the Brewers had a staggering 17 walks on the day. Santiago Garcia was one of the other offensive stars of the day. Garcia finished a triple shy of the cycle and belted his first home run of the season (120 at-bats). On the mound for the Brewers; starter Daniel Garcia allowed three run in three innings of work. Joan Gonzalez was filthy, striking out eight in his four innings of work. Garcia was one out shy of a clean inning, when a two-out error in the seventh inning led to three unearned runs scoring before the final out was recorded With the win, the Gold squad (34-20) clinched the DSL Central Division and will advance to the DSL playoffs. We will await word on timing and first opponent for the playoff push. DSL Rojos (Reds) 10, DSL Brewers Blue 5 Box Score The DSL Brewers Blue finished their DSL season on a sour note, dropping a 10-5 decision to the DSL Rojos on Tuesday. The Blue squad fell behind early, but showed their grit rallying to tie the game and eventually take a brief lead. However, the Rojos put the game away with big rallies in the sixth and eighth inning. The Brewers actually outhit the Rojos 8-5 on the day, but were doomed by a pitching staff that allowed 10 walks. Angel Gonzalez paced the offense with three hits, including a triple. Jose Rodriguez had two hits, a walk, and a run scored. Diego Frontado knocked in two runs on a double. The 17-year-old Frontado finishes his impressive first season in the system with a .979 OPS and 46 RBI. The Brewers emptied the clip on the bullpen in the final game of the season. Six different pitchers were used. Carlos Canales (1IP 1BB) and Jean Rodriguez (2IP 2BB 1K) were the noteworthy performances as the pair worked hitless and scoreless outings in relief. The game turned when the Rojos capitalized on command issues from the Brewers bullpen, scoring four runs in the sixth with the help of three hit batters, three walks, and a wild pitch. The Brewers Blue finish the season 31-24 and just miss out on qualifying for the playoffs. Well, at least the Brewers game was a fun one on Tuesday. The DSL has wrapped on the regular season, so it's just the four full-season affiliates in play on Wednesday. Wisconsin once again has the early game at noon CT.

Game Action: Nashville pre-game media notes Nashville 6, Indianapolis (Pirates) 5 Box Score Via the Sounds, game details, and we encourage readers to always review affiliate write-ups as part of their Link Report routine: Baddoo Walks off Indianapolis Tuesday Night Nashville showed their grit in their back-and forth victory over Indianapolis on Tuesday. Every time Indianapolis scored, Nashville had an immediate response, eventually walking off with a 6-5 victory. After the Indians got on the board versus starter Tyson Hardin in the opening frame, Luis Matos came through with a two-out bases loaded single to give the Sounds an early 2-1 lead. Hardin fared a bit better in this game than he had recently. Since the calendar flipped to July, Hardin had more runs allowed (23) than innings pitched (22.1) entering Tuesday’s contest. Hardin labored his way through 4.1 IP, allowing eight hits but just two runs, due in part to a 5:0 K:BB ratio on the night. After the Indians tied the game off Hardin in the 4th, the Sounds immediately answered back in their half on Eduardo Garcia’s two-run single which made it 4-2 Nashville. Highlight courtesy of the Nashville X account: The Indians briefly took the lead in the 7th, but this time Akil Baddoo had the answer, with an RBI single to tie the game at 5-5. In the 8th, Joel Kuhnel loaded the bases with nobody out but managed to wriggle of the hook with a 5-2-3 double play and then a ground out. Blake Holub then tossed a clean 9th to set the stage for the Sounds offense to walk it off. Blake Burke, who made his AAA debut on Tuesday, led off with an HBP. Brock Wilken followed with a single. Then Baddoo delivered the clutch single to score Burke to win the game: Nashville moves to 63-52 (20-20 in the second half) with the win.

Wisconsin's pitching staff dug an early hole, surrendering five runs over the first two frames. Starting pitcher Jayden Dubanewicz struggled to find rhythm, allowing seven hits and five earned runs across three innings. Despite the early setback, the Timber Rattlers showed resilience in the middle innings to cut into the deficit. In the 4th inning, Luis Castillo launched a two-run home run, courtesy of the Rattlers’ X account: For a player approaching 20 home runs on the season, Castillo sure is flying under the radar. Wisconsin kept the momentum going in the 5th when Daniel Dickinson drilled a solo homer with two outs to bring the Rattlers within two at 5-3: After posting a 1.095 OPS in July, Dickinson has followed that up with a 1.122 OPS so far in August. The trio of Yerlin Rodriguez, Bjorn Johnson and Jose Meneses kept the game close after Dubanewicz left the game. Johnson was particularly sharp with four strikeouts in two scoreless frames. However, The Timber Rattlers struggled with runners in scoring position (0-for-6) and left eight runners stranded on base.

Wilson pre-game media notes Wilson 10, Columbia (Royals) 3 Box Score Ebel Shines in Series-Opening Win - Ebel's Three Hits Lead to Six RBIs Tuesday night was the Brady Ebel Show in Wilson, as the 19-year-old shortstop powered Wilson to a resounding 10-3 win over Columbia. Ebel had three hits, finishing a single shy of the cycle, and drove in a career-high six runs. Ebel opened the scoring with a two run double in the third, courtesy of Spencer Michaelis’ X account: In the seventh, Ebel’s opposite field blast broke a 3-3 tie: Then in the eighth, Ebel close the scoring with a two-run triple to dead center: In non-Ebel related news, two Brewers’ 2026 draft picks made their professional debuts with Wilson. Third-round pick Kyle Jones slotted into the leadoff spot, while Carsten Sabathia III hit eighth, and both players collected two hits, scored twice and had their first professional RBI. Spencer clipped both of their RBI hits for us: On the mound, Carlos Carra worked six strong innings, allowing two hits, two runs, with two walks and striking out four. It was Carra’s longest outing since pitching 6.1 innings on June 6. Newly promoted Luke Roupe made his full-season ball debut and earned in the win in relief, notching three innings of one-run ball to lock down the win. It was the first professional win for the 2025 17th-round draft pick. Wilson is now 56-50 on the season and evens their second half record at 20-20.

DSL Brewers Gold 3, DSL Orioles Orange 2, F/8 (Game called due to rain) Box Score The newly loaded DSL Brewers Gold super team was in action on Tuesday and eked out a 3-2 rain-shortened victory over the DSL Orioles Orange. As Jim covered in yesterday’s link report transactions, the Brewers swapped a bunch of the best players from the DSL Brewers Blue squad over to the Gold, potentially for their DSL title push. The Gold squad got on the board early thanks to Angeni Fernandez’s work on the base paths. Fernandez opened the first inning with a single, stole second, and then eventually scored on Moises Salazar’s sac fly. In the third, the Gold added a run when Leanders Matos singled home Salazar to make it 2-0 Brewers. Matos, in his Gold debut, paced the team with two of their four hits on the day, to raise his average to .355 on the season. The Orioles finally broke through against Brewers’ starter Daniel Garcia in the fourth. Garcia walked a man and then allowed a home run to tie the game at 2-2. Garcia finished the frame and then exited with a line of 4 IP 1H 2R 2ER 2BB and 3K. The Brewers bullpen took over from there Joan Gonzalez (3 IP 1H 3BB 1K) and Ruben Saldana (1 IP 1H 1K) kept the Orioles scoreless the rest of the game. In the 6th, Fernandez once again wreaked havoc on the base paths to set the table for the winning run. Fernandez was HBP, took second on an errant pickoff attempt and then stole third. Ricki Moneys then plated Fernandez with a ground out, providing the winning margin. The Orioles actually did rally in the top of the 9th to take the lead, which isn’t shown in the box score. The Brewers were at-bat in the bottom of the 9th when the rain came. Apparently, they reverted the score to that last completed full inning, which gave the Brewers Gold the win, improving to 31-18 on the season. The DSL Brewers Blue are in their regular 11 AM CT time slot Wednesday. Wisconsin has a matinee at 1 PM CT. The rest of the full season squads will get rolling in their normal evening time slots.
