Brewers Crush Royals in Doubleheader Opener

On April 4, Brewers crushed the Royals in the first game of today's double header, grabbing

a solid win behind Garrett Mitchell's monster, five RBIs, including a three-run homer,

and Chad Patrick's five scoreless innings on the mound.

They jumped out early with Mitchell's two-run double in the first, plating William Contreras

and Christian Yellage after some smart base running.

Patrick kept Kansas City off the board through five, dodging threats like a runner, gun

down at home, by Bryce Tarrang's cannon arm.

Mitchell kept the heat on in the third, smashing that three-run shot off Royal Starter

Lewandar Avela for a career high RBI night already by then.

Fun note, five of Milwaukee's ten hardest hit balls this season belong to him now.

Royals scratched back for two in the seventh against Aaron Ashby, with Nick Lofton and Lane

Thomas crossing the plate, but the Brewers' bullpen locked.

It down.

Abner Urbey and Trevor McGill slamming the door, even with the tying run up late.

In two kicks off in a few hours at 6.10 pm, Brewers sending Brandon's broat to bounce

back, facing Royals ace Seth Lugo, who's been lights out.

Blatley, Milwaukee's rolling into the nightcap.
