In a wild extra-inning affair, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. delivered the clutch hit to break the Brewers' hearts. His one-out double off the left-field wall in the 10th inning drove in the automatic runner, propelling the Toronto Blue Jays to a dramatic 9-7 victory and handing the Milwaukee Brewers their sixth consecutive loss.
This skid matches Milwaukee's longest since June 2023, a troubling trend fueled by a late-game collapse. The Brewers squandered a 4-2 lead by allowing a staggering seven runs over the final three innings, with both teams' bullpens trading blows in a chaotic ninth.
The Blue Jays first stormed ahead with a three-run top of the ninth, only to see Milwaukee answer right back with two runs of their own in the bottom half, capped by a game-tying RBI double from Brandon Lockridge to force extras.
But in the 10th, Guerrero Jr., a perennial MVP candidate, came through. After his go-ahead double, Myles Straw provided crucial insurance with a two-run double to make it 9-6. The Brewers threatened in their final at-bat, bringing the tying run to the plate, but Louis Varland sealed the win for Toronto by striking out Gary Sánchez.
The game featured plenty of power, with Jake Bauers crushing a three-run homer and Gary Sánchez adding a solo shot for Milwaukee. For the Jays, Andrés Giménez and Daulton Varsho also left the yard in a back-and-forth contest that ultimately slipped away from the reeling Brewers.
