Sal Frelick shines at the plate and in the field as Brewers beat Pirates 4-3
MILWAUKEE (AP) — Sal Frelick homered for the first time this season, Joe Ross and three relievers combined on a three-hitter, and the Milwaukee Brewers beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 4-3 on Tuesday night.
Pittsburgh’s Nick Gonzales hit his first homer of the year, and Connor Joe also went deep for the Pirates.
Gonzales’ last homer was July 2 against the Brewers. Frelick hadn’t homered since Aug. 7 of last season, against the Pirates.
Frelick also made two diving catches in center field. He caught a sinking liner from Jared Triolo to end the second and made a play on the warning track to rob Andrew McCutchen of an extra-base hit in the eighth.
Joe homered with two outs in the ninth off Trevor Megill to cut Milwaukee’s lead to 4-3, but Megill struck out Jack Suwinski to earn his fifth save.
Ross (2-4) struck out six while allowing two hits, two runs and one walk in five innings. Bryan Hudson pitched two innings and Elvis Peguero worked the eighth without allowing anyone to reach base.
Brewers pitchers had retired 15 straight Pirates before Joe’s homer.
After each team left runners on the corners in the first inning, the Brewers took the lead for good in the second.
The Brewers collected five straight hits against Quinn Priester (0-4) during one stretch in that inning. Joey Ortiz got things started with a one-out double before Frelick lofted an 0-1 slider over the right field wall.
Oliver Dunn, Jackson Chourio and Brice Turang then delivered three consecutive singles, with Turang’s hit driving in Dunn. Christian Yelich’s two-out single brought home Chourio to make it 4-0.
Gonzales cut Milwaukee’s lead in half with his two-run shot in the fourth.
Priester lasted six innings and gave up four runs and nine hits. He struck out five and walked two.
GERMAN MAKES SEASON DEBUT
TRAINER’S ROOM
Pirates: Domingo Germán allowed a run over four innings for Single-A Bradenton in the former New York Yankees pitcher’s first appearance since signing a minor league deal with the Pirates in March. Germán threw the 24th perfect game in major league history in New York’s 11-0 victory at Oakland last June 28, but he was placed on the restricted list and entered treatment for alcohol abuse later that summer.
Brewers: 1B Rhys Hoskins went on the 10-day injured list with a strained right hamstring. The Brewers promoted utilityman Owen Miller from Triple-A Nashville to fill Hoskins’ spot on the roster. … Brewers LHP DL Hall (left knee) threw 35 pitches in a simulated game Tuesday.
UP NEXT
LHP Martín Pérez (1-2, 3.60) starts for the Pirates and LHP Robert Gasser (1-0, 0.00) pitches for the Brewers as this three-game series concludes Wednesday afternoon.

Another commissioner is leaving the Social Development Commission board, as leaders continue to work on a restructuring plan, SDC attorney William Sulton said Friday.
Sulton said Serina Chavez, who was elected to represent SDC’s District 5 and serves as the board’s secretary, indicated that she planned to resign at the Board of Commissioners meeting Thursday at the African American Chamber of Commerce of Wisconsin, 1920 N. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Drive.
He received her official resignation on Friday.
“She indicates in her correspondence that essentially that the work that’s necessary is beyond what she is able to commit,” Sulton said.

Chavez’s resignation follows the departure of four board members, including former board chair Elmer Moore Jr., since SDC suspended operations and laid off its employees in late April.
The all-volunteer board has met frequently since the spring to sort through new information and work on a plan to reopen SDC, handling its day-to-day operations.
Most of Thursday’s board meeting was spent in closed session.

Milwaukee Brewing Co. announces opening date for Bay View taproom
Milwaukee Brewing & Distilling Company – owned by Eagle Park Brewing – has announced that its new taproom in Bay View will have its soft opening on Friday, Aug. 2.
A grand opening event with live music and more will take place on Saturday, Aug. 17.
The taproom is in the former Tonic Tavern, 2335 S. Kinnickinnic Ave., which has been renovated.
The new venue will not have a brewhouse. It will feature a range of beers and spirits made by Milwaukee Brewing & Distilling Company at its Muskego facility.
Milwaukee Brewing will continue the Tonic tradition of hosting live music. There is an indoor stage.
Tonic’s large outdoor area has been remodeled.
“Much of the work on the space was cosmetic besides the new patio,” says co owner Jake Schinker. “We loved Tonic Tavern and it was a careful balancing act to choose what to update and what to keep.
“We wanted it to feel new but still keep it familiar to those in the neighborhood that frequented here.”
Eagle Park’s roots are in Bay View, where it opened in 2017 in the Lincoln Warehouse on 1st and Becher Streets.
“Bay View holds a special place in our hearts,” says Schinker. “When we left our original location here in 2018 we were sad to leave, but being back here and being part of the wave of new businesses opening in the area is amazing!
“It already feels like we never left.”
The new taproom was announced this past spring. Tonic Tavern closed in February.
When Eagle Park Brewing and Distilling bought the brands of the closed Milwaukee Brewing Company in September 2022, Schinker told us that he and his partners planned a taproom focused on the brand.
Milwaukee Brewing Company opened in 1997. It closed its Brewery District taproom in August 2022 and sold the business and facility to Pilot Project Brewing.
Eagle Park has taprooms on Milwaukee’s East Side and in Muskego, where it operates its production facility.
