The Story

The Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Milwaukee Brewers 5-1 on May 24, 2026, at American Family Field, methodically erasing the DiamondIQ model's pre-game 52 percent home win probability and holding Milwaukee to a final win probability of zero percent. The Brewers managed seven hits but never generated meaningful run support against a Dodgers pitching staff that kept them contained throughout the evening. Los Angeles was clean defensively, committing no errors across nine innings, while Milwaukee likewise played error-free ball in a loss that came down almost entirely to one catastrophic frame.

The decisive moment arrived in the top of the fifth inning, where the Dodgers turned a close game into a rout. Kyle Tucker's triple off Shane Drohan represented the single largest win-probability swing of the night at plus 20.7 percent, and Andy Pages followed with a home run off Drohan that added another 8.1 percent. The inning continued to unravel for Milwaukee when Brandon Sproat entered and walked Freddie Freeman, a sequence that shifted win probability another 6.3 percent in Los Angeles's favor. The Dodgers plated four runs in the fifth and had already added one in the fourth, when Miguel Rojas was hit by a Sproat pitch in a plus 5.4 percent swing. Andrew Vaughn grounded into a double play in the bottom of the sixth against Yoshinobu Yamamoto, the most consequential unsuccessful plate appearance for the Brewers at minus 5.4 percent.

By WPA, Tucker finished as the game's top offensive contributor at plus 19.0 percent with a RE24 of plus 1.6, while Freddie Freeman and Teoscar Hernandez each added modest but meaningful positive contributions at plus 4.5 and plus 4.3 percent respectively. On the mound, Yamamoto was the standout performer, accumulating a WPA of plus 17.2 percent to anchor what became a thorough Dodgers road victory.
