The Milwaukee Brewers defeated the Seattle Mariners 7-4 at American Family Field on August 20, 2026. Seattle starter George Kirby struggled significantly, allowing six runs in the first inning before being removed in the fourth. Despite a strong performance from reliever Michael Rucker and some offensive production from the Mariners, including four runs, Seattle could not overcome the early deficit. Jhonathan Díaz gave up a home run in the eighth inning, solidifying Milwaukee's lead. The Mariners' pitching has been a concern as they sit last in the majors in fWAR since the All-Star break.
