Pat Murphy provides Aaron Ashby update amid injury scare

The post Pat Murphy provides Aaron Ashby update amid injury scare appeared first on ClutchPoints. The Milwaukee Brewers jumped out to an early lead against the Los Angeles Dodgers Monday, chasing starter Yoshinobu Yamamoto from the game with a 5-run first inning. The Brewers cruised to an easy 9-1 win with the only drama involving the health of reliever Aaron Ashby. Advertisement Ashby was struck on his pitching hand by a come-backer in the top of the eighth inning. While the Brewers' athletic trainer came out to check on Ashby, he was able to stay in the game. After the win, manager Pat Murphy provided an update on the lefty, telling reporters that X-rays of his hand were negative, per Adam McCalvy. Brewers reliever Aaron Ashby has dominated in 2025 since May debut Michael McLoone-Imagn Images Ashby entered the game in the seventh inning with the Brewers up 7-0. And he remained in the game to pitch the top of the eighth after Milwaukee took a 9-0 lead. With two on and two out, Ashby gave up an RBI single to Esteury Ruiz, which deflected off the pitcher's hand before ending up in right field. Advertisement The single ended the Brewers' shutout but it did not end Ashby's night. After getting checked out by Milwaukee's staff and throwing some practice pitches, the fourth-year pro was allowed to continue. He got out of the inning without further damage by inducing a grounder to short from Michael Conforto. Ashby has been dominant this year. He opened the season on the injured list with a right oblique strain. But since making his 2025 debut in May he's bolstered the Brewers' bullpen. Ashby has only allowed the opposing team to score in two of his 12 appearances this season. The 27-year-old hurler now has a 1.27 ERA with a 0.94 WHIP and 25 strikeouts in 21 1/3 innings for Milwaukee this season. The Brewers signed Ashby to a five-year extension in 2022 when the team envisioned him as a starter. However, he missed the entire 2023 season after undergoing surgery on his left shoulder. When he returned in 2024, he made the switch to the bullpen. Advertisement Ashby was effective in relief last season. After two early starts, he moved to Milwaukee's bullpen full time in August. Following the change he had a 1.37 ERA, 0.78 WHIP and 28 strikeouts in 19 2/3 innings. The Brewers hope he avoided an injury Monday as the team won for the third time in four games. Milwaukee improved to 51-40 on the season and now trails the first-place Chicago Cubs by 3.5 games in the NL Central.

Quinn Priester Throws 7 Dominant Innings As Brewers Blank Rockies 5-0

Quinn Priester struck out a career-high 11 batters in seven innings of one-hit ball. Joey Ortiz homered for the third time in four games, and the Milwaukee Brewers extended their winning streak to four with a 5–0 victory over the major league–worst Colorado Rockies on Saturday. Priester (6–2) allowed a one-out single to Michael Toglia in the fifth and walked a pair while throwing 95 pitches in the longest and best start of his three major league seasons. Aaron Ashby and DL Hall completed the one-hitter. Brice Turang had three hits, including a run-scoring infield single in the first and an RBI double in the fifth. Ortiz hit a two-run homer in the fourth. Antonio Senzatela (3–11) allowed five runs on eight hits and three walks in 4 2/3 innings. Key moment: Facing the top of Colorado's lineup for the third time, Priester had an 0–2 count on Tyler Freeman to start the sixth before throwing four straight balls. He followed that by getting Jordan Beck to ground out, then struck out the next two batters on seven pitches. Key stat: Milwaukee's pitching staff has an NL-leading 3.27 ERA over the last 31 games, during which the Brewers are 22–9. Up next: Chad Patrick (3–7, 3.72 ERA) tries to help the Brewers complete a three-game sweep when he faces the Rockies' German Marquez (3–8, 6.11) on Sunday.
