Joey Ortiz hits tiebreaking slam and Brewers beat reeling Mets 7-2 in 1st game of twinbill
Sal Frelick launched his first career leadoff homer and Freddy Peralta pitched six innings of two-hit ball to win his fourth straight start.
Brewers rookie Isaac Collins went 4 for 4 with a home run and a walk as Milwaukee won for the ninth time in 11 games and improved to 13-2 in its last 15 regular-season matchups with the Mets.
New York has dropped 14 of 17 overall and been outscored 37-6 during its four-game losing streak.
The makeup of Tuesday night's rainout was the first meeting between the teams since their Wild Card Series in the playoffs last October, when Pete Alonso's go-ahead homer in the ninth inning rallied New York to victory in the decisive third game.
Alonso gave the Mets a 2-1 lead Wednesday with an RBI single in the fourth, but that was the last of their two hits. Peralta retired his next eight batters, and New York managed just one more baserunner.
Reed Garrett replaced Mets starter Clay Holmes with a runner on first and one out in the sixth. Brice Turang tied it 2-all with an RBI double on the first pitch from Garrett, who then loaded the bases before Ortiz, who began the day batting .210, drove a 3-1 cutter to left field for his sixth home run.
Garrett had a 0.68 ERA in 27 games through June 3. He has a 12.86 ERA in nine outings since. ... Peralta struck out six and walked one. He's won all four of his regular-season starts against the Mets. ... Milwaukee has won 11 of its past 13 road games, including five in a row to equal a season best.
Hard-throwing rookie Jacob Misiorowski makes his fourth major league start for Milwaukee in the nightcap.
New York was waiting for the result of Game 1 before announcing whether rookie Blade Tidwell would start the nightcap or pitch bulk relief behind an opener.

Who is Francisco Lindor's wife? Meet Katia Reguero Lindor, the mother of three balancing life with Mets All-Star
Francisco Lindor's off-field MVP is his wife Katia Reguero Lindor, who, at 32, is a dedicated mother of three, a podcast host, and his biggest fan. Their romance began in early 2020 when Lindor slid into her Instagram DMs, and grew fast. They had their first daughter Kalina that November, wed in December 2021 at Miami's Vizcaya Museum and Gardens, and then had two more children: Amapola Chloé in June 2023 and son Koa Amani in March 2025. Along the way, Reguero launched The Un-a-Parent podcast to discuss raw truths about parenting in English and Spanish. As the Mets face a tough season, she also shared candid posts about postpartum recovery, reminding fans that behind every star is a partner managing real-world highs and lows. A love story that began on social media Reguero and Lindor's first conversations began with emojis and questions. 'I messaged her on Instagram,' Lindor told the New York Post in April 2022. After three months of texts, he flew to Arizona for spring training and knew she was ' the one.' Their December 2021 wedding featured personal vows at first look and Andrea Bocelli's 'Can't Help Falling in Love' as their first dance—Reguero's favorite since childhood. 'I grew up listening to Andrea Bocelli and always loved this song,' she told Martha Stewart Weddings. Mothering three under five hasn't stopped Reguero from building a creative outlet. She debuted The Un-a-Parent in August 2022 'to start conversations that I felt I might have needed,' she explained in her first episode. On social media, she posted details of home births, at-home lymphatic drainage massages and raw reflections on breastfeeding. As reported by MARCA, she wrote after Koa's birth, ' Breastfeeding for more than four years is hard work,' offering an honest glimpse into her postpartum journey. Standing beside Lindor through thick and thin Whether cheering from the stands or documenting runs on Instagram, Reguero remains Lindor's top supporter. When he was hit by a pitch in April 2022, she praised him on Instagram as the 'strongest person I know,' per People. And after his grand slam in the 2023 NLDS, she celebrated alongside their daughters —proof that together, they face both the unpredictable spin of a fastball and life's daily curveballs.

Slumping Yankees, Mets look for turnaround in Subway Series
The New York Mets and New York Yankees stumbled in the weeks leading up to the latest installment of the Subway Series, which starts Friday at Citi Field. Slumping Yankees, Mets look for turnaround in Subway Series The Mets lost 14 of 17 games before winning each of their past two contests against the Milwaukee Brewers. The Yankees, meanwhile, dropped 14 of their past 20 games to fall out of first place in the American League East heading into their Friday afternoon game against the host Mets. Yankees manager Aaron Boone kept a positive outlook despite seeing his beleaguered bunch get swept in a four-game series by the Toronto Blue Jays to start the week. "It's no fun going through it. It when you get your kicked in a division rival series on the road, but we're ready-made for this. And we will get through this," Boone said after his team stranded 12 runners on base in an 8-5 setback on Thursday. "... Embrace the adversity of it. This will make us stronger as we navigate through the season. I know nobody likes hearing that, but that's what this is. We know this week is coming for us. We know this time is coming for us." Yankees left fielder Jasson Dominguez collected four hits on Thursday. He is batting .419 with four RBIs and seven runs in his past 12 games. While Dominguez has been hot of late, Mets left fielder Brandon Nimmo is on a two-game tear. Nimmo belted his third career grand slam in the Mets' 7-3 victory over the Brewers on Wednesday, then added a solo shot in a 3-2 win on Thursday. Juan Soto had the go-ahead RBI single among his two hits as the Mets improved to 16-12 in one-run games this season and a major-league-best 31-13 at home. Signed to a 15-year, $765 million contract in the offseason, Soto went 1-for-10 against his former team as the Mets dropped two of three games against the Yankees from May 16-18. "It doesn't matter what's in the past but what's ahead of us," Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said. "... Now we have to get ready for another good team coming to town. The Subway Series, obviously. It's gonna be electric, and we'll be ready to go." Mets right-hander Justin Hagenman is expected to make his third career appearance and first start on Friday. He will take on former Mets right-hander Marcus Stroman . Hagenman, 28, allowed two hits over 2 2/3 scoreless innings in a no-decision against the Atlanta Braves on June 19 before he was optioned to Triple-A Syracuse the next day. He has yet to face the Yankees in his brief career. Stroman permitted one run on three hits in five innings to pick up the win on Sunday against the Athletics in his return after sitting out 2 1/2 months due to left knee inflammation. "I tore my ACL and made it back in five months," Stroman said. "I don't do 'doubt.' I knew I'd be back at some point, it was just a matter of when." Stroman, 34, is 1-1 with a 4.76 ERA in three career starts vs. the Mets. Field Level Media This article was generated from an automated news agency feed without modifications to text.
