Brice Turang's Walkoff Homer Leads Brewers to Sweep of Yankees
The Milwaukee Brewers completed a three-game series sweep against the New York Yankees with a dramatic 4-3 victory on Sunday, May 10, 2026, at American Family Field. The decisive moment came in the ninth inning when Brice Turang hit a two-out, walkoff home run off Yankees closer David Bednar. This marked Turang's sixth homer of the season and his first career walkoff hit. Earlier in the game, Yankees starter Carlos Rodon, making his season debut after injury, struggled with control, allowing three runs over five innings despite limiting hits. The Yankees had taken an early lead thanks to Aaron Judge's league-leading 16th home run and an RBI single from prospect Spencer Jones. However, the Brewers rallied in the fourth inning with key contributions from Garrett Mitchell and Blake Perkins to take the lead. Although the Yankees tied the game in the sixth via an RBI double by Jazz Chisholm Jr., they could not hold on. Abner Uribe secured the win for Milwaukee with a scoreless ninth inning before Turang's heroics, cementing the series victory for the host team.
