After a break-even 3-3 road trip that ended with a two-game losing streak, the Brewers are back home for their second homestand of the season. They will play their next six games at home, starting with a three-game series against the Nationals.
Though Chad Patrick was announced as the original starter for the game, the Brewers have decided to go with an opener and use Aaron Ashby to start the game. Patrick will still get the bulk of the pitching work, but he will enter the game after Ashby instead. Meanwhile, Jake Irvin of the Nationals will make the more traditional start. For more details on the starting pitcher matchup, you can check out yesterday’s series preview.
Prior to tonight’s game, the Brewers recalled Easton McGee from Triple-A. He will fill the roster spot opened after Shane Drohan was optioned yesterday. Also, manager Pat Murphy provided some player updates.
One injured player who is back in the lineup is Brice Turang. After missing the last two games of the Red Sox series with a foot/ankle injury, he is back at the top following three days of rest. William Contreras and Christian Yelich bat second and third, with Garrett Mitchell batting fourth. Jake Bauers, Luis Rengifo, Sal Frelick, and Blake Perkins fill the five through eight spots, and David Hamilton will bat ninth as he gets the start at shortstop.
Here are the lineups for tonight. First pitch is scheduled for 6:40 p.m., and it will be on Brewers.TV and the Brewers Radio Network.
