In a thrilling game between the Milwaukee Brewers and the New York Mets, Rhys Hoskins emerged as the star player, driving in four runs to secure a 7-6 victory for the Brewers. His impressive performance came a day after a contentious incident involving a hard slide into Jeff McNeil that caused tensions to flare.
Hoskins' contributions were pivotal, with a two-run single in the first inning, a two-run homer in the third, and a key run scored on a balk in the fifth. His offensive prowess proved crucial in overcoming Luis Severino's struggles on the mound, as the Mets pitcher gave up a career-high 12 hits in his debut for the team.
The game took a heated turn when Yohan Ramírez threw a pitch well behind Hoskins, leading to his ejection from the game. Despite the controversy, Hoskins maintained his focus on the game and continued to deliver for his team.
