The Milwaukee Brewers secured a 4-1 victory over the Atlanta Braves on August 22, 2026, extending their winning streak to six games and deepening the Braves' recent slump.
Jake Bauers delivered the decisive blow with a two-run homer in the third inning, while rookie left-hander Logan Henderson turned in six strong innings, striking out four batters and allowing only one run.
Cooper Pratt added a timely RBI after Martín Pérez mishandled a dribbler, contributing to three unearned runs, and William Contreras went 2-for-4, improving to 6-for-8 in the series. Joey Ortiz doubled and scored in the fourth, while Michael Harris II drove in a run for Atlanta with a double in the opening inning.
