Rockies gift one in the first
Rhys Hoskins took advantage of a Rockies mistake in the first by cashing in on the first pitch he saw from starter Kyle Freeland for a RBI single with two outs in the first. One batter prior, third baseman Ryan McMahon made an errant throw to first base, allowing Gary Sanchez to reach on an error and put runners on the corners.
It was Hoskins’ first RBI on a non-homer since August 24.

Adames, Sánchez hit back-to-back homers in 1st inning as Brewers defeat Rockies 5-2
MILWAUKEE (AP) — Willy Adames and Gary Sánchez hit back-to-back homers in the first inning, William Contreras later added a two-run shot and the Milwaukee Brewers defeated the Colorado Rockies 5-2 on Saturday night.
Rookie right-hander Tobias Myers (7-5) recorded a career-high 11 strikeouts over six innings to help Milwaukee avoid a fourth consecutive loss. The NL Central-leading Brewers are the only major league team without a losing streak of at least four games this season.
Myers explained after the game why the Brewers have managed to avoid prolonged slumps.
“We just never give up,” Myers said. “I think even when we lose a game, we always have the tying run at the plate, we always have a chance. We just always believe in each other and just fight until the end, for sure.”
Ryan McMahon and Sam Hilliard homered for the Rockies.
Adames put Milwaukee ahead for good with his two-out homer off Ty Blach (3-8) in the first inning. The homer was the 30th of the season for Adames, who also has 101 RBIs. Adames entered Saturday tied with Los Angeles’ Shohei Ohtani for the NL lead in RBIs.
Adames is the first Brewers shortstop ever to have a 30-homer, 100-RBI season. Hall of Fame shortstop Robin Yount, who spent his entire career in Milwaukee and owns many of the franchise’s hitting records, never homered more than 29 times in a single season.
Sánchez followed Adames’ homer by delivering a 418-foot shot to left center for his 10th homer of the year. Milwaukee nearly ended up hitting three straight homers, as Rhys Hoskins hit an inning-ending fly ball that center fielder Brenton Doyle caught on the warning track.
Contreras extended the lead to 4-0 in the third when he broke out of an 0 for 20 slump with his two-run shot to right-center. Joey Ortiz added an RBI double down the left-field corner in the fifth.
Those big hits provided more than enough support for Myers, who gave up just one run, four hits and one walk. The only run Myers allowed came on McMahon’s leadoff homer in the fourth.
“The kid is relentless,” Brewers manager Pat Murphy said of Myers. “He’s taking it all in. I think he’ll continue to do that. I just told (president of baseball operations) Matt Arnold back there, I said, ‘I think you’ve got a good one.’ I really do. They signed this guy for a reason.”
Hilliard added a solo shot off Jared Koenig with two outs in the eighth. Devin Williams struck out the side in the ninth for his ninth save in 10 opportunities.
Blach gave up five runs and six hits in 3 2/3 innings. He struck out one and walked nobody.
INJURY REPORT
After making a diving catch to rob Sal Frelick of an extra-base hit in the second inning, Doyle left the game in the bottom of the fifth.
“His left hand suffered a little bit of an impact,” Rockies manager Bud Black said. “It started swelling up a little bit. It affected his ability to grip the bat.”
Before the game, Black conceded the possibility that OF/1B Kris Bryant might not return this season. Bryant, who is dealing with a back strain, has appeared in only 37 games this season and last played on Aug. 10.
“You know in the NFL, you’ve got probable, questionable and doubtful,” Black said. “I’m going to say it’s questionable, but we’re running out of time.”
UP NEXT
LHP Kyle Freeland (4-7, 5.30 ERA) starts for the Rockies and RHP Freddy Peralta (10-7, 3.75) pitches for the Brewers when this three-game series concludes Sunday.

Governor Tim Walz Campaigns at Milwaukee’s Laborfest – Milwaukee Courier Weekly Newspaper
By Karen Stokes
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz celebrated Labor Day with the working people of Milwaukee at Laborfest 2024 held at Maier Festival Park on Monday. The annual event is to acknowledge the history and culture of the labor movement.
As a former union member, the Vice Presidential candidate pledged on Monday that he and Vice President Kamala Harris would lead an administration focused on prioritizing workers’ interests.
“If you want to attack me for standing up for collective bargaining, for fair wages, for safe working conditions, for health care and retirement, you roll the damn dice. I’ll take my chances on that,” Walz said.
Warm-up speakers included Gov. Tony Evers, U.S. Rep. Gwen Moore (D-Milwaukee) and U.S. Sen. Tammy Baldwin, who is running for reelection, worked to build enthusiasm for the Democratic ticket — a task that loud cheers from the crowd suggested didn’t require much effort.
Walz was introduced by Rich Kangas, vice president of Iron Workers Local 8 who said, “Walz is someone who will continue the historic effort to support unions and workers, because he knows when unions are strong, we are strong.”
“We have some of the best union leaders in the country here in Wisconsin and we’re better for it,” said Governor Evers.
Walz said that he had a responsibility not just to tell people what they’re against but also what they are for, “Lowering taxes “on working families” and making “corporations pay their fair share”; ensuring that Social Security and Medicare benefits aren’t cut; fighting for a national paid family and medical leave program along the lines of the one signed in Minnesota.” Labor Fest is an annual
Labor Day event sponsored by the Milwaukee County Labor Council. The event is a traditional Wisconsin venue for politicking in election years. President Obama, and President Joe Biden have both been keynote speakers at the festival.
En route from the Milwaukee airport to the event, vans at the back of the Walz motorcade were involved in a crash. The cause of the crash was not immediately clear, but there were minor injuries to some of the passengers in those vehicles.
“Some of my staff and members of the press that were traveling up with us were involved in a traffic accident on the way here today. We’ve spoken with the staff,” he told the crowd. “I’m relieved to say that with a few minor injuries, everybody’s going to be okay.”
Walz thanked the Secret Service and local first responders “for their quick reaction to help”.
The Governor was recently in Milwaukee for a rally with Vice President Kamala Harris at Fiserv Forum during the week of the Democratic National Convention. This is the third visit for Walz to the battleground state since the beginning of their campaign.
Walz’s running mate, Kamala Harris started the day in Detroit, later joining President Joe Biden for an appearance in Pittsburgh.
