Tigers push Brewers into the game, losing in home loss in 8th

His opponent Victor Alcantara fell from the glove of Castellanos, rolled along the wall and fell on the seat.

"It was a course of action," explained Castellanos. "I ran back, I saw him, I jumped and I felt it in my glove, my glove reached the top of the fence and when I came back down, the ball was not in my glove.

"It happened quickly, frustrating for sure, but what can you do other than come back tomorrow and play?"

This victory allows the Brewers to remain tied with the Cubs at the top of the division, two days from the end.

"It was an excellent baseball game," said coach Ron Gardenhire. "They (the Tigers) really got it right, their guys are intense, we know what they're fighting for, but I was happy with our effort, it's a pity we played a very good game. baseball game against a very good team. "

Bruan's home race took place after the Tigers dramatically, and all of a sudden, tied the match at the top of eighth place.

It seemed that the Tigers could have used all their balls in the first run. They made 17 consecutive outings at one point and had only one between the second and seventh inning.

The Brewers led 5-3 and star player Josh Hader was eighth.

Did not seem promising.

Rookie Dawel Lugo then hit Harold Castro with Jeimer Candelario at first base. Lugo, hitting .209, knocked out the crowd by tapping a fast 3-2 ball over the wall in the left field to tie the game.

"It was incredible," Gardenhire said. "A kid like that, this time of year in this atmosphere and he hits one like that – just amazing."

A sacred moment to mark your first major league player.

"I was ready to hit," said Lugo in the translation of the Tigers coach, Rafael Martinez. "It was a full count and I was ready for a fastball, he gave me a good quick shot and I had a good run."

Invited to describe his emotions by circling the basics, Lugo said, "Very happy, I promised my father that I was going to hit home for him, and I did it." am very happy now. "

The Tigers had not produced a homerun since 2016, when they had seven. The last Tiger to have had his first homer career was Tyler Collins in 2014.

But the host of Braun made a side note.

The Tigers, who had not played a match at Miller Park since 2006, also had a bit of a head in the first run, when they tied five points with Zach Davies. The fact that none of them were hit hard – the exit speeds of the five hits was 72, 65, 56, 72 and 89 mph – was not important for the Tigers, nor for the faithful of the Brewers.

These successes were collected by Castro, Castellanos, Niko Goodrum (RBI), Jim Adduci (RBI) and James McCann (RBI).

The Tigers would not get another base runner – much less a shot or a run – until McCann came in first in the seventh.

The Brewers sprayed that three-point lead with a pair of circuits in the bottom half of Jordan Zimmermann's first off-off. Christian Yelich, with the crowd chanting "MVP, MVP", hit a 417-foot two-point center circuit. It was his 34th circuit and his 106th player.

Three hitters later, Bruan scolded a 0-2 slider that turned and surpassed the plate – a solo circuit. Braun's two circuits were two-way sliders.

"We have three points in the top of the standings, and we are still talking about the end of the heat," said Zimmermann. "I could not do that tonight."

The Tigers are not going to win too many battles against the Brewers. The three circuits they scored on Friday gave them 214, the second total in the National League. The Lugo circuit was the 134th of the Tigers.

The two home runs of Zimmermann were 27 and 28, he was allowed in 131.1 innings. He conceded 29 homers in 160 innings, a peak in his career last season.

It's not going to be better for him either. His slider, a bullet that had been a major weapon for him this year, betrayed him.

"It was terrible," he said. "The last two times, it has not been very good to start the game and then, as the game progresses, I get it back, but I just do not understand.

"But I have to do a better job of running and throwing when I need it."

The Brewers took the lead in the third round of the RBI duel by former Royals third baseman Mike Moustakas. Zimmermann managed to get out of the game when, in the same match, central field player JaCoby Jones beat Jesus Aguilar on third.

It was the 35th Tigers pass this season, eight by Jones.

The Brewers scored again in the fourth on a double from Orlando Arcia and a single from Domingo Santana.

The Tigers Bulls, impressively, kept the game tight. Blaine Hardy threw a scoreless fifth, allowing Erik Kratz to get into a brace ending the heat with runners in corners and a goal.

Alex Wilson then scored six consecutive outings, removing four. He hit the seventh side – Yelich, Aguilar and Travis Shaw.

Since he has awarded three consecutive races from August 13 to 19, Wilson has awarded a run in 12.2 innings.

"It's a playoff team and we hooked with them," Wilson said. "We took their shots and they took ours, it was a fun game to watch and a fun game to watch, but unfortunately he just found himself on the wrong side with a bullet coming out of our player's glove. straight ground.

"He literally did the game and when he hit the wall, he escaped, we could still play now."
