PHILADELPHIA – The involvement from the team with the second-best record in baseball during the All-Star Game was sparse.
With Jacob Misiorowski not pitching and Brice Turang, despite being 10th in baseball in WAR, not selected, William Contreras was the lone representative from the Milwaukee Brewers to take the field July 14 at Citizens Bank Park.
Contreras entered the game on defense in the top of the fourth, replacing Braves backstop and Madison native Drake Baldwin.
His lone at-bat came in the bottom of the sixth against Cleveland closer Cade Smith. Contreras saw three pitches, swung at each of them and flew out to right.
Misiorowski did take the field as part of a segment between innings in which kids took the field on bikes and went to a spot on the diamond. Misiorowski was stationed at home plate, where he showed the kid he was paired with each of his pitch grips while Ray Charles' "America the Beautiful" played in the back.
