Milwaukee Brewers vs Miami Marlins score, live game updates, highlights
The Milwaukee Brewers celebrate 25 years at Miller Park/American Family Field as they take on the Miami Marlins on July 27 prior to a much-anticipated alumni home run derby. Freddy Peralta (12-4, 2.85 ERA) starts on the mound for Milwaukee opposite Miami's Cal Quantrill (3-8, 5.24 ERA). Follow along for live updates. Blake Perkins can't rob the homer but saves a run It didn't take long for a bizarre play to unfold. With two outs in the top of the first, what was ruled as an Agustín Ramírez solo home run on the field was not only overturned upon replay review but the umpiring crew actually determined he had to go back a base because the defense gave up on the play once the call was made. Ramírez hit a towering fly to straightaway center off Peralta that Blake Perkins, playing his first game at American Family Field this year, nearly made a spectacular grab on. Perkins snagged the ball in his webbing as he reached over the fence, but it slipped out as he pulled it back. Somehow, though, the ball never hit anything but Perkins' glove past fence and it fell back into play after bouncing on the yellow padding. Peralta wound up walking the next hitter but got Otto Lopez to ground out to end the inning. What time is the Brewers game today? Time: 3:10 p.m. CT What channel is the Brewers game on today?
