Brice Turang -- General News

The Milwaukee Brewers completed a three-game sweep of the New York Yankees with a 4-3 victory on Sunday, capped by Brice Turang's walk-off home run in the ninth inning. With two outs in the ninth, Turang connected off David Bednar for a 411-foot drive over the center-field wall, marking his first career walk-off homer. This was the Brewers' first sweep of the Yankees in a series of at least three games since August 1989.

The Yankees took an early lead when Aaron Judge hit a solo home run off Logan Henderson in the first inning for his 16th of the season, tying Philadelphia's Kyle Schwarber for the MLB lead. However, Milwaukee tied the game and took the lead in the fourth inning, capitalizing on the wildness of Yankees starter Carlos Rodón, who was making his season debut following elbow surgery. Rodón walked six batters and hit one, allowing three runs on just two hits in 4⅓ innings. New York tied the game 3-3 in the sixth on Jazz Chisholm Jr.'s two-out RBI double before Turang's heroics in the ninth.

The sweep improved the Brewers' interleague record to 116-65 since 2022, the best mark in Major League Baseball. The Brewers are now 14-7 against AL opponents this season. The Yankees begin a three-game series at Baltimore with Ryan Weathers pitching Monday, while the Brewers host the San Diego Padres starting Tuesday with Brandon Sproat on the mound.

The Milwaukee Brewers swept the American League-leading New York Yankees in a three-game series, capping the weekend with Brice Turang's walk-off home run on May 10, 2026. Turang's ninth-inning blast against 2x All-Star David Bednar gave the Brewers a 4-3 victory and marked a historic accomplishment: the Brewers' first three-game sweep of the Yankees since the 1989 season, nearly 40 years prior. The sweep came after strong performances earlier in the series, including a dominant outing from Jacob Misiorowski on Friday and an extra-innings victory on Saturday. Turang's homer was his sixth of the 2026 season and extended Milwaukee's winning streak to four games.

The victory added to the Brewers' storied Mother's Day tradition. The team holds the best record on Mother's Day in MLB history at 37-22. The franchise has produced multiple memorable Mother's Day moments over the years, including Bill Hall's walk-off homer with a pink bat in 2006, Martin Maldonado's walk-off single against the Cubs in 2015, Manny Piña's go-ahead three-run homer in 2017, and Freddy Peralta's 13-strikeout debut in 2018. Turang's performance now adds to this legacy of memorable May moments for the Brewers.

Brice Turang delivered a dramatic walk-off home run for the Milwaukee Brewers against the New York Yankees on Mother's Day, securing a 4-3 victory and completing a three-game sweep. Turang's first instinct after the game-winning blast was to call his mother. The second baseman described his approach at the plate: he was anticipating a fastball but remained prepared for a breaking ball. When a curveball came toward the batter's box, Turang was ready, noting the significant speed difference and taking advantage of the pitch. Through his performance on Sunday, Turang is hitting .298 with 6 home runs, 23 RBIs, and 8 stolen bases, while leading the National League with a .422 on-base percentage. The sweep elevates the Brewers to a 22-16 record, placing them 3.5 games behind the Chicago Cubs in the NL Central standings. Milwaukee heads into their next series against the San Diego Padres with momentum.
