Apr 11, 2025; Phoenix, Arizona, USA; Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Jose Quintana (62) throws in the first inning against the Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field. Mandatory Credit: Matt Kartozian-Imagn Images The Milwaukee Brewers hope veteran left-hander Jose Quintana can replicate his first outing when they host the Detroit Tigers on Wednesday afternoon.
Quintana (1-0, 0.00 ERA) will start the rubber match of the three-game series. He will oppose right-hander Keider Montero (6-6, 4.76 ERA in 2024), who will make his season debut for Detroit.
The Brewers evened the series with a 5-0 victory Tuesday as Quinn Priester and four relievers combined on a one-hitter. Priester, acquired from the Boston Red Sox this month, allowed three walks over five hitless innings before a leadoff double in the sixth. The bullpen then retired 12 straight.
Milwaukee also averted its second four-game losing streak of the season. The Brewers were the only team in the majors last season to avoid a skid of at least four games.
Quintana, who was not signed as a free agent until early March, opened the season in the minors. In his first start for Milwaukee on Friday, he tossed seven innings of four-hit ball in a 7-0 win at Arizona in an 80-pitch outing.
Quintana is 6-6 with a 4.85 ERA in 23 career games (22 starts) against Detroit. He has not faced the Tigers since 2022, when he was with the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Rhys Hoskins, who entered hitting .182, hit his first homer of the season and a pair of singles in Tuesday’s win. Christian Yelich, who was given a day off Monday after a .143 start, singled in the seventh to snap an 0-for-16 skid.
Brice Turang has his hit safely in 17 of 18 games and owns a team-high 24 hits.
The Brewers, whose pitching staff has been riddled with injuries, made a roster move before Tuesday’s game to bolster their bullpen, recalling right-hander Logan Henderson from Triple-A Nashville. Right-hander Elvin Rodriguez, who pitched five innings in relief Monday, was sent down.
Henderson was 2-1 with a 3.21 ERA in three starts at Nashville.
“He’s been throwing the ball really well,” Brewers manager Pat Murphy said. “That’s kind of why he’s here. We need help. All hands on deck. Whether or not he ends up staying for an extended period of time will depend on him and other people’s health and that type of thing.”
Detroit needs a victory Wednesday to win its fifth consecutive series after being swept in the first set of the season.
Montero will be called up Wednesday from Triple-A Toledo to make the start. Reliever Brenan Hanifee, who allowed two unearned runs on three hits Tuesday, will be optioned to Toledo.
“It’s all about the rotation and giving multiple guys a benefit from it,” Tigers manager A.J. Hinch said Tuesday afternoon. “We’ve been able to go this entire way so far without any of our starters being on that traditional five-day start, and we have a chance to continue it with arguably a guy who could’ve been on our team from the get-go.”
Montero is 1-1 with a 2.79 ERA in two starts this season with Toledo.
Scheduled starter Reese Olson was pushed back to Thursday.

Dodgers’ Roki Sasaki Resumes Throwing Program in Recovery From Shoulder Injury
<!--> Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Roki Sasaki has restarted his throwing program as he continues his recovery from a right shoulder injury. Manager Dave Roberts said the 23-year-old phenom threw from 60 to 90 feet Friday in his return to workouts after a brief pause. "That was a bonus," he said. "That was a plus. Chatted with him briefly afterward. He was excited about it."The Dodgers had halted Sasaki’s throwing program for the previous several days because he didn’t feel comfortable throwing at full intensity. Roberts confirmed that Sasaki has remained pain-free, but must build up his arm to game strength in a process that will take at least a few more weeks.Sasaki went on the injured list May 13 with right shoulder impingement, and the Dodgers transferred him to the 60-day injured list earlier Friday to make room on their […]
Pirates’ Oneil Cruz makes error in center field, then watches ball roll away as run scores
The Pittsburgh Pirates came into Friday's game versus the Texas Rangers with the second-worst record in the National League at 30-46. In the first inning, center fielder Oneil Cruz looked as if the losing had worn him down. Or he was frustrated at making another error at his position.On a Sam Haggerty single to center, Cruz ran over to field the ball but it went under his glove. Errors happen but rather than chase after the ball, Cruz stood and watched the ball roll away, presumably mad at himself for his mistake.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementAdam Frazier backed up the play, yet if Cruz had immediately run after the ball, he probably would have gotten to the ball first. It was a bad look for the young star, who appeared to be giving up on the play.As a result of Cruz's lackadaisical approach, Josh […]
