Sproat Faces Mets, Falls Short | Milwaukee Brewers News
Description
Brandon Sproat, the 25-year-old former Mets prospect, got his shot against his old team — and the Mets came out on top with a four-run win, tying the series. Sproat struggled early, using nearly 30 pitches in the first inning, but battled into the fifth before the Brewers bullpen collapsed. He surrendered two runs on four hits and four walks, striking out four in four and two-thirds innings. Surprisingly, facing his old team didn’t add pressure — just familiar faces and a fun chess match. Meanwhile, Zac Thornton, another former Mets draftee, delivered a six-inning shutout for his first big league win, earning praise from Sproat as a crafty lefty who doesn’t back down. Despite the loss, Sproat’s season is turning around — his ERA has dropped, and he’s kept runs under two in his last five starts.
