Brewers vs – Milwaukee gets another crack at Philadelphia after Jacob Misiorowski’s Friday night domination. This time the matchup flips to Shane Drohan, fresh off 6.1 scoreless-ish innings at Colorado, against Aaron Nola, still searching for his rhythm at a 5.86 ERA. With
Friday night ended with Jacob Misiorowski doing what the Milwaukee Brewers were hoping for: owning the Phillies from the mound in a thorough domination.
Now it’s a quick turnaround, and the teams are set to get back at it again.
This time, Milwaukee’s plan rides on Shane Drohan. He hasn’t been as dominant as Misiorowski. but he’s been steadily better in his last couple of turns since being pushed back into the starting rotation. In his most recent outing, Drohan logged a career-long 6.1 innings against the Rockies and allowed just three runs. The production has kept stacking up: he’s at a 3.11 ERA on the season and appears to be starting to find his stride.
On Philadelphia’s side, Aaron Nola takes the ball. The bigger question around him isn’t talent—it’s timing. Nola hasn’t hit his rhythm this year, pitching to a 5.86 ERA so far. He’s only two years removed from receiving Cy Young votes. but his 2025 season came with injury problems. limiting him to 17 starts and a 6.01 ERA. At 33, there’s a sense that both age and innings could be starting to catch up.
The way these teams line up gives the matchup a sharper edge. Milwaukee will once again send a string of left-handed hitters into the lineup against Nola, who is right-handed. Christian Yelich, Jackson Chourio, and Brice Turang anchor the top of the order. Jake Bauers is in at first base, while Sal Frelick handles right field. Andrew Vaughn sits again on the bench.
At third base, David Hamilton gets the start tonight over Luis Rengifo.
Philadelphia’s batting order keeps familiar names close to the center of the action. Kyle Schwarber, Trea Turner, and Bryce Harper make up the top of the order. Alec Bohm and Brandon Marsh are slotted as additional middle-of-the-lineup threats.
The storyline now is straightforward: can the Brewers keep the Phillies bats down once again. the way they did after Misiorowski’s Friday night performance?. Or will Drohan’s momentum be enough to give Philadelphia a jolt—or at least break through—against a Nola who still looks like he’s chasing his best form.
First pitch is at 6:10 PM.

6:10 pm already? Nola gonna give up a bunch, watch.
So they’re just doing revenge again? I swear Friday’s game didn’t even count the way they described it. Misiorowski dominated and now it’s Nola time to finally wake up.
Drohan 3.11 ERA?? That sounds like he’s basically a Cy Young guy now lol. But then the article says Nola is still “searching for rhythm” at 5.86 which feels backwards. If Philadelphia bats are “familiar names” then they’ll hit, that’s usually how it goes.
I’m confused because it says Misiorowski on Friday dominated the Phillies, but then it’s like everyone’s acting like Drohan is the whole plan today? Also Yelich and Chourio lefties against a righty… okay so does that mean Phillies are screwed automatically or what. Andrew Vaughn sitting again like that helps? idk I just want Harper to do something.
