Brewers Seek to Avoid Sweep Against Nationals

The Milwaukee Brewers, struggling with a three-game losing streak, will look to right-hander Colin Rea to avoid a series sweep against the Washington Nationals. The Nationals secured a comeback victory on Saturday with CJ Abrams' ninth-inning two-run homer, marking their first consecutive wins since July 4. Despite a strong start by the Brewers, who led 5-0 early, Washington's bullpen and timely hitting turned the tide. Brewers manager Pat Murphy emphasized the need to tack on runs and maintain effort as the team aims to recover from losing seven of their last nine games. The series finale will feature a pitching matchup between Rea and Nationals' Jake Irvin.
