Brewers aim for back-to-back victory as Yankees visit American Family Field
Kyle Harrison faces Cam Schlittler while Brandon Lockridge joins the injured list following a collision at the wall
The Milwaukee Brewers are preparing to host the New York Yankees on May 9 at American Family Field, seeking to secure a second consecutive victory in the series. The contest represents a direct institutional clash between the two franchises, with the home side looking to maintain momentum against the visiting opposition.
Pitching duties for the evening have been assigned to left-hander Kyle Harrison for Milwaukee, who will face New York right-hander Cam Schlittler on the mound. This matchup sets the strategic tone for the game, pitting the Brewers' rotation against the Yankees' starting lineup in what is expected to be a high-stakes encounter.
Roster management for the Brewers has seen significant movement in the days leading up to the fixture. Blake Perkins has been recalled from the Class AAA Nashville affiliate, returning to the major league fold just six days after being optioned there. This recall indicates a shift in player availability and roster composition for the upcoming contest.
Conversely, the Brewers have been forced to adjust their lineup due to an injury sustained during the previous night's game. Brandon Lockridge has been placed on the 10-day injured list following a collision with the left-field wall that resulted in a right knee laceration and contusion. The severity of the incident against the exposed concrete in foul territory necessitated his immediate removal from active duty.
The game is scheduled to take place at American Family Field, where the local institution will welcome the New York squad. Broadcast details for the event include coverage on Brewers.TV and AM-620 WTMJ, ensuring the contest remains accessible to the local audience and broader fanbase.
While the primary focus remains on the May 9 fixture, scheduling information also points to a subsequent game on May 10. That future matchup is listed to feature Brewers right-hander Logan Henderson against New York left-hander Carlos Rodón, marking the continuation of the series.
