Brewers dominate Mets 8-1 despite losing May on first pitch

The Milwaukee Brewers defeated the New York Mets 8-1 in a game on August 26, 2026, after losing starter Dustin May to injury on the first pitch. May sustained a scapula contusion after being struck by a ball, leading to his immediate exit. The Brewers capitalized on the Mets' pitching woes, scoring four runs in the second inning and adding three more on a two-out home run from Brice Turang in the fourth. New York's Francisco Alvarez and Christian Yelich each recorded an RBI single, but it was not enough to close the gap. The game evened the series at one game apiece, setting up a decisive matchup for the following night.
