Coming off a season in which they paced the league in run differential, the Brewers line up Freddy Peralta against left-hander Patrick Sandoval. Peralta’s riding a mid-90s fastball and a sharpened slider that produced a 31 % strikeout rate last year; he matches up especially well with an Angels order that struck out sixth-most in the league and is thin on right-handed power beyond Mike Trout. Sandoval’s ground-ball profile normally plays, but Milwaukee’s patient top three—William Contreras, Christian Yelich, and Jackson Chourio—forces him into deeper counts and an early exit after 5 ⅓ innings.
Milwaukee cashes in first when Chourio legs out a double and Willy Adames punches a single through the left side in the second. The real separation comes in the fourth: Yelich draws a walk, Adames yanks a hanging changeup into the gap, and Rowdy Tellez lofts a sacrifice fly for a quick two-spot. Once the game turns to the bullpens, the contrast is stark—Brewers deploy Hoby Milner, Abner Uribe, and Devin Williams (back from last season’s forearm scare) to lock down the late frames, while the Angels’ middle relief continues to leak traffic. A two-run eighth triggered by Sal Frelick’s pinch-hit triple gives Milwaukee insurance they hardly need.
Los Angeles scrapes across single tallies on a Brandon Drury RBI grounder in the fifth, a Trout solo shot off Elvis Peguero in the seventh, and a late run against Bryse Wilson, but they never mount a sustained rally. With crisper defense, superior depth, and a bullpen that shortens the game, the Brewers extend their head-to-head winning streak to six and start the new campaign the way they ended the last: on top.
