The Story
The Milwaukee Brewers defeated the Colorado Rockies 8-5 at American Family Field on July 25, 2026, a result the DiamondIQ model's estimate anticipated from the outset, assigning Milwaukee a 75% pre-game win probability that climbed steadily to 100% by the final out. Milwaukee scored in five of nine innings, with the bulk of the damage coming in the second, fourth, and sixth frames, while Colorado mounted a three-run ninth that amounted to little more than a cosmetic adjustment to the final line. The Brewers finished with 13 hits against Colorado's 7, and each team committed one error.
The game's most consequential sequence unfolded across the middle innings. Cole Carrigg delivered the biggest single swing of the contest, a double off Robert Gasser in the top of the fourth that added 11.7 percentage points of win probability for Colorado, representing the Rockies' most credible threat to the outcome. Milwaukee answered with force in the bottom half, as Cooper Pratt's single off Ryan Feltner added 9.5 percentage points of win probability, and Pratt had already done damage in the second inning with a home run off Feltner worth 7.2 percentage points. The Brewers then put the game largely out of reach with a four-run sixth, capped by Luis Lara's double off Juan Mejia that shifted win probability an additional 10.1 points in Milwaukee's favor. William Contreras grounded into a double play in the bottom of the first, a moment that cost the Brewers 7.7 percentage points early, though it proved a minor detour in the overall trajectory.
Pratt finished as the game's most impactful offensive player by a considerable margin, posting a WPA of plus-17.0 and an RE24 of plus-2.2, with his contributions spread across multiple innings and at-bats against Feltner. Carrigg led Colorado's effort with a WPA of plus-13.0, though his RE24 of plus-0.7 reflected limited broader run-environment impact. Lara rounded out the top performers with a WPA of plus-12.6 and an RE24 of plus-1.7. On the mound, Chad Patrick led Milwaukee's pitching staff with a WPA of plus-1.4, with Lance McCullers Jr. and Trevor Megill contributing marginally positive figures as well.
