Brewers remain red-hot after notching their 10th straight win

The Milwaukee Brewers extended its scorching streak Monday night with a 7–1 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates. The victory marked Milwaukee’s second 10-game winning streak of the season, making it the first MLB team to achieve that feat since the 2019 Houston Astros.

With a 74–44 record, the Brewers have reached 30 games over .500 faster than any team in franchise history. Milwaukee's surge continues to be fueled by a relentless offense, highlighted by a four-run third inning — the Brewers' 40th such inning this season, the most in the majors.

Isaac Collins, fresh off NL Rookie of the Month honors and the latest NL Player of the Week, stayed hot with two hits. Since July 1, he’s slashing .360/.447/.561 with four home runs and 15 RBI in 32 games.

William Contreras also collected two hits, including an RBI single in the sixth. He’s batting .545 with three home runs and six RBI over his last three games.

Milwaukee now holds a 6.5-game lead over the Chicago Cubs in the NL Central and is one win shy of matching its season-best 11-game winning streak.
