The Brewers visited the Athletics at Las Vegas Ballpark, marking the first time the A’s have played in Vegas since their move there was announced.
While the attention of many sports fans might have been turned to Madison Square Garden and the NBA Finals on Monday night, about 2,500 miles away, there was a rather bizarre baseball game taking place.
The Brewers visited the Athletics at Las Vegas Ballpark, marking the first time the A’s have played in Vegas since their move there was announced. Milwaukee came away with a 15-14 victory in 12 innings. The 29 combined runs scored broke the MLB season high of 25 set in the Giants’ 19-6 win over the Rockies on May 31. The Brewers outhit the A’s by a small margin, 18-16.
Milwaukee designated hitter Christian Yelich slides into home plate to score on a fielder’s choice by Brice Turang during the 12th inning the Brewers’ 15-14 win over the A’s on June 8, 2026, in Las Vegas. As expected for a minor league park, the ball was flying out of Las Vegas Ballpark on Monday as the two clubs combined for 11 homers. Andrew Vaughn, who homered for Milwaukee, led the team with four RBIs.
Three other Brewers, Brice Turang, William Contreras, and Jake Bauers, had three RBIs apiece. Tyler Soderstrom matched Vaughn and led his own squad with four RBIs alongside two home runs. Abner Uribe reacts after striking out the final batter during the 11th inning of the Brewers’ shootout win over the A’s. On the other side, the Brewers and A’s each used seven pitchers in contest, and the staffs threw a total of 441 pitches, a season high.
The starters, Kyle Harrison for the Brewers and Jeffrey Springs for the Athletics, allowed a combined 13 runs. It was the longest game thus far this season, taking four hours and 14 minutes. After heading into extras tied 10-10, each team scored four runs in the tenth inning to keep things tied 14-14.
The 11th inning saw no runs scored, but in the top of the 12th, automatic runner Christian Yelich scored the deciding run when A’s second baseman Jeff McNeil threw wide to home on a grounder by Turang. First baseman Nick Kurtz celebrates with catcher Shea Langeliers after hitting a home run during the A’s loss t the Brewers.
