The Brewers loaded the bases with two outs in the seventh, but Colin Holderman retired Andrew Vaughn, who worked a full count, to end the inning on a grounder. Milwaukee loaded the bases again in the eighth with two outs before Smith struck out Christian Yelich.

Gary Sánchez’s run-scoring single off Messick gave the Brewers a 1-0 lead in the second. The Brewers had a chance for more with two on when right fielder Kahlil Watson, making his major league debut, made a diving catch to end the inning.

Fry’s fourth home run of the season tied it at 1 in the third.
