The Milwaukee Brewers matched Major League Baseball modern-era records for the largest shutout victory by routing the Seattle Mariners 22-0 on Tuesday night at American Family Field. Milwaukee improved their major league-leading record to 78-48 while tying their franchise single-game scoring mark. Christian Yelich, David Hamilton, and Luis Lara each hit three-run home runs, and Jake Bauers added a two-run shot to power the historic offensive surge. Starting pitcher Kyle Harrison allowed just two hits across five scoreless innings to earn his tenth victory of the season. The Mariners suffered their worst defeat in franchise history, utilizing infielder Leo Rivas on the mound in the eighth inning where he surrendered nine runs. Catcher Gary Sánchez closed out the final frame, completing a five-hitter shutout using pitches under 40 mph.
