Brandon Nimmo's grand slam helps Mets salvage split with Brewers
Nimmo's grand slam in the second inning was the third of his career and second this season. He launched a grand slam against the Atlanta Braves on June 8, 2023, and again versus the Washington Nationals as part of a franchise record- tying nine-RBI performance on April 28.
Lindor followed Nimmo's grand slam with a solo homer in the second inning. Lindor added an RBI single in the sixth and an RBI double in the eighth on a day in which he was named as the starting shortstop for the National League in the All-Star Game.
The Mets had lost four in a row and 14 of 17 games following their 7-2 setback in the opener of the doubleheader.
Blade Tidwell recorded his first win of his major league career after working 4 1/3 innings. After New York's Huascar Brazoban pitched a scoreless first, Tidwell entered and hurled four scoreless innings before allowing solo homers to Christian Yelich and Jackson Chourio to start the sixth. Tidwell struck out his next batter and departed after Rhys Hoskins reached on an error.
Dedniel Nunez relieved Tidwell and allowed Anthony Seigler's first career hit and a run-scoring groundout by Joey Ortiz as New York saw its lead trimmed to 5-3. That closed the book on Tidwell, who yielded three runs on five hits.
Two more relievers bridged the gap to Edwin Diaz, who struck out three batters over the final 1 1/3 innings to record his 17th save.
New York loaded the bases after a pair of two-out walks and an infield single before Nimmo deposited a first-pitch slider from rookie Jacob Misiorowski over the wall in right field. Nimmo's 16th homer of the season gave the Mets a 4-0 lead.
Lindor followed by sending a 1-2 fastball from Misiorowski over the wall in right-center field.
Misiorowski sustained the first loss of his career after permitting five runs on as many hits with three walks in 3 2/3 innings.
Hoskins and Chourio each collected two hits and a run for the Brewers, who lost for just the second time in their last seven games.

Sehrawat named Tamil Thalaivas skipper
Tamil Thalaivas unveiled its jersey and announced Pawan Sehrawat as the captain, for the upcoming twelfth season of the Pro Kabaddi League (PKL), here on Wednesday. Arjun Deshwal was named the vice-captain. Sehrawat, who was with Thalaivas in the ninth season but was unable to play much due to an injury, said he was 'excited' to play for Thalaivas in front of the home crowd in Chennai this season. Assistant coach Suresh Kumar said that the team was fortunate to get Sehrawat in the auction. 'We needed an experienced star raider who could be the captain as well. There were only a few outstanding raiders in the auction. We were doubtful if we would be able to get Pawan. We got lucky. That too, we got him for an amount which was cheaper than what we had anticipated the winning bid to be, which in turn enabled us to get Arjun as well,' said Suresh Kumar. Talking about the team's preparation, he said: 'Since July 15, we've had a camp at the Ponneri Gymkhana Club. It ends on August 27. Two days after the camp began, we entered and won an All-India tournament in Tuticorin. We wanted to provide exposure to the inexperienced players and get a hang of the squad's capacity. We played without Pawan and Arjun. That win, after having contested against some good teams, boosted the confidence of our squad.'

Brewers blast five homers, blank Pirates to extend win streak to 11
Freddy Peralta allowed three hits over six scoreless innings and the red-hot Milwaukee Brewers slugged five homers to extend their winning streak to 11 games with a 14-0 rout of the visiting Pittsburgh Pirates on Tuesday night. Brewers blast five homers, blank Pirates to extend win streak to 11 Peralta , who leads the National League in victories, struck out seven and walked one as the Brewers won for the 14th time in 15 games. Andrew Vaughn capped a six-run sixth with a three-run homer, his 13th, to put Milwaukee up 12-0. Christian Yelich hit his team-high 23rd homer, a two-run shot in the fifth that made it 6-0. Sal Frelick and Brice Turang had solo homers off Pirates ace Paul Skenes , who entered with an MLB-best 1.94 ERA, but was tagged for four runs on six hits in four innings. Skenes has allowed eight runs in eight innings in his last two starts against Milwaukee. He allowed six runs combined in seven starts in between those outings. The Brewers, 26-4 over their last 30 games, improved to an MLB-best 75-44 and increased their lead in the NL Central to 7 1/2 games over the Chicago Cubs, who lost 5-1 at Toronto. Frelick opened the first inning with his ninth homer to put the Brewers up 1-0. William Contreras doubled in a run in the third to make it 2-0. Pittsburgh had two aboard with one out in the fourth after an error and a walk, but Peralta enticed Andrew McCutchen into a inning-ending double play on a bouncer to third. The Brewers made it 4-0 in the fourth on Turang's solo homer, his 12th and fourth in the last five games, and Frelick's RBI single. Pirates shortstop Jared Triolo pitched the eighth and allowed Caleb Durbin's two-run homer. Utility infielder Anthony Seigler tossed a scoreless ninth for Milwaukee. Pirates centerfielder Oneil Cruz was removed after a sliding collision with leftfielder Jack Suwinski and was being evaluated for a head injury, the team announced during the game. Pirates manager Don Kelly was ejected in the fifth by home plate umpire Roberto Ortiz. Field Level Media This article was generated from an automated news agency feed without modifications to text.
