Brewers extend franchise record to 14 straight wins

Andruw Monasterio delivered a three-run homer in the 11th inning to lift Milwaukee to a 6-5 win over Cincinnati. The victory extended the Brewers' franchise record to 14 straight wins, the longest streak in MLB this season and the longest for Milwaukee in modern times. It marks the eighth comeback win during the streak, underscoring the team’s resilience as they surge through a demanding run of games. The Reds have now lost 13 straight series to Milwaukee.

Trevor Megill earned the win after pitching in relief, allowing one run on one hit in the 10th. Nick Mears notched his first save of the season. Reds starter Joe La Sorsa (0-1) yielded three runs on three hits in relief. In the 11th, Elly De La Cruz scored on a sacrifice fly, Noelvi Marte added a solo homer to pull Cincinnati within one, and Matt McLain’s deep drive to center was caught by Brandon Lockridge for the final out.

Milwaukee is writing a narrative of late game grit. The streak tests the crew’s stamina, but it also highlights a bullpen that can close out tight games when necessary. The Brewers have paired timely hitting with steady pitching to make this run feel more like an identity than a streak, a shift in how the team is perceived around the league.

For Cincinnati, the pattern is troubling. The Reds continue to struggle against Milwaukee in series, and this loss adds pressure on the coaching staff to adjust late-inning matchups and bullpen usage. The longer the streak lasts, the sharper the focus on each decision as the season unfolds and the stakes rise.
