Brewers Dominate Nats in an 8-1 Blowout: A Game for the Ages!

A Perfect Day for Baseball: Brewers Take Down the Nationals

It was a picture-perfect Sunday afternoon at American Family Field, with a crowd buzzing like bees around a honey pot as the Milwaukee Brewers aimed to close out their series against the Washington Nationals. The roof was wide open, letting in the sunshine—a perfect day for baseball and hot dogs, if you ask me! With ace Freddy Peralta on the mound, hopes were high for the hometown team to keep the winning streak going, and boy, did they deliver a game worth buzzing about.

In Nationals vs. Brewers Highlights (7/13/25), the action of the game leads us to explore not just baseball, but the abundance of outdoor activities in Wisconsin.

Freddy ‘Strikeout King’ Peralta Strikes Early

Freddy stepped onto the mound with a confidence that could only come from a pitcher who was a two-time All-Star, charting 10 wins already this season. And from the very first pitch, he made it clear that the Nationals weren't going to have an easy time. Striking out Alex Call and Josh Bell, Peralta put the Nationals in a funk early on—like trying to balance a spoon on your nose while your grandma watches.

Brewers’ Offense Shines

Meanwhile, the Brewers’ offense added fuel to the fire, with William Contreras smacking a base hit in the gap. Milwaukee's clever base-running skills were on display, reminding everyone how they lead the league in stolen bases. Watching them run was like watching kids in a candy store—pure joy! And just when we thought the Nationals would find their groove, they dug themselves deeper with a strikeout-throwout double play. Whoops!

Oops, a Few Errors Along the Way...

Even the best of players have off days—just ask Brady House, who had a tough time at third base. Errors happen! It’s part of the game. The excitement of the day peaked when rookie Anthony Seagler came to bat, getting his first two RBIs just off the bench. There’s nothing better than a rookie story, right? It’s like winning the lottery, only to find a line of people trying to borrow money from you!

Freddy’s Great Escape

As the innings rolled on, Freddy continued to dominate, wrapping up six scoreless innings. Not a single run crossed home plate while he was pitching, and it was only when Jake Irvin took the mound that the Nationals finally got a hit in the sixth. Milwaukee fans roared in delight, as if they’d just been handed a slice of cheese from the finest dairy farm in the state.

Brewers Turn Up the Heat

With the game in their hands, the Brewers weren’t done yet. The eighth inning saw rookie Jackson Cheerio launch a massive three-run home run to extend their lead. It was a sight to see! One moment you’re hoping for a grounder that stays fair, and the next, BAM!—the balls flying over the fence like a bird returning to the nest. One minute you're a child waiting for an ice cream truck, and the next you're watching fireworks explode in front of you from sheer joy!

Adding Up the Joy: An 8-1 Victory

Closing the game strong, Eastston McGee took the mound for the Brewers to seal the deal. With a final score of 8-1, Milwaukee celebrated their seventh consecutive win. Can't wait to see what’s next! This team shines brighter than the Fox River falls, and just like nature, it’s all about embracing the seasons—and it looks like summer has no plans of leaving!
