The Milwaukee Brewers are back at Busch Stadium looking to salvage a win in their rain-shortened two-game series against the St. Louis Cardinals. After Tuesday night's game was washed out, the stage is set for a Wednesday matinee showdown that could shift momentum in this early-season rivalry.
Taking the mound for the Brewers is right-hander Brandon Sproat, who will look to quiet a Cardinals lineup hungry for runs. He'll be opposed by St. Louis righty Andre Pallante, making this a battle of arms with plenty on the line. Fans can follow along for live updates as the action unfolds.
On the defensive side, Brewers fans have plenty to be excited about. Second baseman Brice Turang is sporting a platinum patch on his glove to commemorate his 2024 Platinum Glove Award, along with his nickname and number stitched into the leather. He's also switched to a 'V' web this season, a subtle change that speaks to his commitment to defensive excellence.
Across the diamond, Christian Yelich's glove features a gold Rawlings patch, a nod to his 2014 Gold Glove season. Catcher William Contreras, meanwhile, has a specially customized glove with Venezuelan flag colors, a tribute to his World Baseball Classic appearance.
Outfielder Sal Frelick is showing off his glove in the clubhouse, while pitcher Jacob Misiorowski keeps things simple with just a skull on his game glove. But his practice glove tells a deeper story: a red tulip—the symbol for Parkinson's disease—is etched into the leather, a heartfelt tribute to his father who lives with the condition.
Joey Ortiz's glove features a cross and the acronym "His Glory Alone," while Brandon Sproat's motto "Let it eat" is proudly displayed on his glove, alongside a Bible verse stitched inside. Garrett Mitchell's glove carries the same phrase tattooed on his body: "Keep the faith."
Quinn Priester's glove reads "Seek discomfort," a nod to a YouTube show's motto that he's applied to his baseball journey. Jake Bauers keeps it classic with a simple "JB" inscription, and Jared Koenig sticks with a clean Mizuno design.
Brandon Lockridge and Grant Anderson also showcase their gloves, with Anderson adding the initials of his two children and a Bible verse stitched into the leather. Kyle Harrison sports a longer glove for a pitcher, with his nickname etched in, while Robert Gasser keeps his customization minimal with just his nickname.
Whether you're tracking the score or admiring the gear, today's game is a reminder that every detail matters—from the mound to the leather. Stay tuned for live updates as the Brewers look to turn the tide in St. Louis.
