Milwaukee Brewers News Roundup — September 20, 2026

The Brewers completed a sweep of the Orioles on Sunday with a 3-0 victory, reaching 98 wins and setting a franchise record for wins in a season. Jacob Misiorowski pitched three scoreless innings while allowing one hit, and the team pitched back-to-back shutouts for the first time since 2023, holding Baltimore scoreless across 16 innings in the series.

Milwaukee's pitching depth has emerged as a significant strength heading into October. Beyond Misiorowski, who remains the NL Cy Young frontrunner with a 15-5 record and 1.89 ERA, Robert Gasser has become a viable postseason option after posting a 1.71 ERA in September following earlier struggles. Shane Drohan has provided unexpected value as a versatile option, pitching 120 1/3 innings as both starter and reliever with a 1.55 ERA in relief appearances. Logan Henderson is positioned as the team's number two starter after allowing three or fewer earned runs in 22 consecutive outings.

The Brewers' reliance on rookies extends beyond the pitching staff. Outfielder Cooper Pratt, who debuted three months ago, drove in two runs in Sunday's victory and has reached base safely in 13 of his last 16 games while maintaining a .276 batting average. William Contreras contributed a solo home run, his 18th of the season. The team sits three wins away from reaching 100 wins for the first time in franchise history.
