ATLANTA (AP) — When Milwaukee scored eight runs in the second inning of Sunday's game at Atlanta, Robert Gasser's path to his first win since 2024 seemed clear.
When the left-hander had thrown 66 pitches through only three innings, it seemed far less certain Gasser would remain in the game long enough to qualify for the win.
Brewers manager Pat Murphy believed it was time to give Gasser a strong pep talk.
"We challenged him and he took it well, he did a good job," Murphy said after Gasser gave up two runs in six innings in the 9-4 win over the Braves. Gasser's outing was crucial as the Brewers salvaged one win in the three-game series.
Gasser (1-3) earned his first win since May 15, 2024, against Pittsburgh.
