A Tale of Two Trajectories: Brewers Go for 9th Straight Win, Sweep of Slumping Mets
It is a study in momentum, a perfect illustration of how two teams in the same league can experience completely different realities. On one side, you have the Milwaukee Brewers, a team riding an eight-game winning streak, playing with a joyous confidence, and finding new and creative ways to win every single night. On the other, you have the New York Mets, a team in a complete free-fall, on a six-game losing streak, and finding new and excruciating ways to lose. On Sunday afternoon, these two teams on opposite ends of the emotional spectrum will meet in the finale of their three-game series, as the red-hot Milwaukee Brewers look to complete a sweep of the reeling New York Mets.
The Brewer Buzzsaw: “Great Vibes” in Milwaukee
The Brewers have the best record in baseball for a reason: they are a deep, talented, and incredibly confident team. They have won 11 of their last 12 games and are playing with a swagger that is palpable. Their success in this series has been a showcase of their versatility. On Friday, they won a tight 3-2 game on the back of a perfect defensive play, with center fielder Blake Perkins throwing out the potential tying run at the plate. On Saturday, they won in one of the most bizarre ways imaginable. With the game on the line in the seventh inning, William Contreras hit what appeared to be an inning-ending fly-out, but it was negated by a pitch-clock violation on the Mets’ reliever. Given a second chance, Contreras blasted a two-run homer to cap a four-run rally and lead the Brewers to a 7-4 victory.
They are winning high-scoring games, low-scoring games, and even winning without their star rookie, Jackson Chourio, who is on the injured list. The feeling in their clubhouse is electric. “We’re going through a great moment — one of the better moments the franchise has gone through,” Contreras said via an interpreter. “Great vibes in the clubhouse whenever you’re just going through a stretch like this, winning games. It’s a feeling in any clubhouse that this is kind of what you’re chasing after.”
The table below provides a snapshot of two teams whose recent form could not be more different. For a full recap of their most recent games, you can check the official MLB game results.
Team | Record | Division Standing | Recent Form (Last 10) |
Milwaukee Brewers | 72-44 | 1st in NL Central | 9-1 |
New York Mets | 65-53 | 2nd in NL East | 1-9 |
The Mets’ Meltdown: “We’re Not Playing Good Baseball”
While the Brewers are celebrating, the Mets are in crisis. They have lost six straight games and 10 of their last 11, a slide that has seen them fall out of first place in the NL East. Their recent losses have been particularly painful, a series of gut-punches that have tested the resolve of their clubhouse. They have been no-hit into the ninth inning, they have left the bases loaded to end a game, and now they have lost on a pitch-clock violation. Their struggles have been compounded by sloppy defensive play, with costly errors from key players like Francisco Lindor and Ronny Mauricio contributing to their recent defeats.
“We’re not playing good baseball,” a blunt manager Carlos Mendoza acknowledged. “Especially when you’re playing against teams like this. You give them extra outs, extra bases, they’re going to make you pay. And that happened today.” The psychology of a talented team in a deep slump is a key topic for any bettor, one often explored in our expert betting guide.
The Pitching Matchup: A Deeper Look
Sunday’s game features a fantastic pitching matchup. The Brewers will send out one of the hottest pitchers in baseball, Quinn Priester, who has won 10 straight decisions. The Mets will counter with veteran lefty Sean Manaea, who is trying to be the stopper.
Pitcher | W-L (2025) | ERA (2025) | Winning/Losing Streak |
Quinn Priester (MIL) | 11-2 | 3.15 | Won 10 straight decisions |
Sean Manaea (NYM) | 1-1 | 3.52 | Lost 1 straight decision |
A Bittersweet Milestone for Alonso
The one bright spot for the Mets in Saturday’s loss was a historic moment for their superstar first baseman. Pete Alonso hit his 252nd career home run, tying the legendary Darryl Strawberry for the most in franchise history. While the personal achievement was special, it was a bittersweet moment in the midst of a team-wide collapse. The scores and odds for this matchup will heavily favor the visiting Brewers.
