Christian Yelich, now in his eighth season with the Milwaukee Brewers, is continuing to make his mark as a key player for the team. Since being traded from the Miami Marlins ahead of the 2018 season, Yelich has not only secured an NL MVP award but also helped lead the Brewers to four NL Central division titles. After a challenging 2024 season, limited by back surgery, he's adapted to primarily playing designated hitter in 2025 to manage his health effectively. Despite a dip in batting average to .259 this season, he has proven his value with 17 home runs and 61 RBIs, crucial for Milwaukee's playoff aspirations as they sit three games behind the Chicago Cubs.

The Mets triumphed 3-2 over the Brewers in a game marked by strong pitching and timely offensive contributions. Jose Quintana, facing his former team, started with a solid performance, limiting the Brewers to just three hits through five innings. However, momentum shifted in the sixth inning when Juan Soto's groundball single broke a 1-1 tie, followed by Pete Alonso's double that pushed the score to 3-1. Quintana exited after allowing three runs, while David Peterson shined for the Mets, giving up only two runs and striking out four over 6.2 innings. The Mets secured their second consecutive win, bouncing back after a disappointing sweep against the Pirates.

The New York Mets' game against the Milwaukee Brewers on July 3 has been officially delayed due to inclement weather affecting the New York area. According to the team's announcement, the game will not commence as scheduled, with updates to follow. This series against the Brewers has already faced disruptions, including a postponed opener on July 1 and a doubleheader on July 2, where both teams ended up splitting the games. Fortunately for the Mets, they won't have to travel following this series, as they are set to face the New York Yankees in the Subway Series starting July 4.

Brandon Woodruff's highly anticipated return to the Milwaukee Brewers is finally set, as manager Pat Murphy confirmed the right-hander will rejoin the rotation on Sunday against the Miami Marlins. This marks a significant milestone in Woodruff's journey back from intensive labrum surgery, which led to the abrupt end of his last season and most of this one. His last Major League appearance was on September 23, 2023, but a series of setbacks, including an ankle injury and a line drive to his elbow, delayed his rehabilitation.

Despite the uncertainty surrounding his performance, Woodruff remains excited about getting back on the mound. The Brewers plan to utilize a six-man rotation for this series, with Quinn Priester and Chad Patrick also slated to start against the Marlins. The Brewers are looking to leverage Woodruff's vast experience and skill as they aim for a successful close to the season.

The Milwaukee Brewers are making a strong push for the postseason, claiming seven wins in their last ten games, though they recently experienced a 7-3 loss to the New York Mets. Currently, they sit just three games behind the Chicago Cubs in the National League Central. The key to their success has been remarkable starting pitching and timely hitting, highlighted by the impressive performances of 23-year-old Jacob Misiorowski, who was recently named the National League Rookie of the Month.

Misiorowski had a stellar June, pitching 16 innings with a 1.13 ERA and striking out 19 batters. His major league debut on June 12 was unforgettable, as he threw five no-hit innings against the St. Louis Cardinals. However, his latest start saw a setback, allowing five runs in just 11 outs. The Brewers will look to Misiorowski's talent as they head to Miami for a weekend series against the Marlins, before returning home to face the Los Angeles Dodgers.
