The Story
The Milwaukee Brewers dismantled the Cincinnati Reds 20-0 on September 11, 2026, at American Family Field in one of the most lopsided results of the season. The DiamondIQ model opened with Milwaukee as a 69% favorite and closed at 100%, a reflection of how quickly the Brewers seized complete control and never relinquished it.
The second inning was the decisive frame, and really the game within the game. Milwaukee erupted for six runs in that half-inning, doing the bulk of its damage against Reds starter Andrew Abbott. Brice Turang's home run in the bottom of the second carried the single largest win-probability swing of the night at plus 7.7%, followed almost immediately by Jackson Chourio's double at plus 7.0% and Jake Bauers adding another home run at plus 2.7%. Interestingly, Luis Lara's pop out in that same inning registered a plus 7.4% WPA swing, reflecting how deep into favorable counts the Brewers were working Abbott before each out. The Reds' best individual moment came in the top of the first, when a JJ Bleday strikeout off Dustin May swung win probability 3.4% in Cincinnati's favor, underscoring how little the visitors were able to offer offensively across nine innings.
Brice Turang led all players in WPA at plus 9.1% with a RE24 of plus 4.6, making him the clear engine of Milwaukee's offensive destruction. Jackson Chourio followed at plus 8.4% WPA and plus 2.6 RE24, while Luis Lara posted plus 7.0% WPA despite a negative RE24 of minus 0.3. On the mound, Dustin May was Milwaukee's most impactful arm at plus 1.4% WPA, supporting a Brewers pitching staff that held Cincinnati to just two hits and was aided significantly by two Reds errors. The final line of 20 runs on 23 hits told the full story of a complete and utterly dominant Milwaukee performance.
