Preview
The Milwaukee Brewers wrap up their road trip with a Sunday matinee in Anaheim, sending right-hander Jacob Misiorowski to the mound against the Los Angeles Angels at Angel Stadium on August 2 at 3:15 PM ET. Walbert Ureña gets the ball for the Angels in what shapes up as a matchup of two pitchers with something to prove. The game airs on Peacock/NBCSN with radio coverage available on WTMJ 620 for Brewers fans back in Wisconsin. This one has real-season stakes — every start, every lineup card, every decision matters as rosters are set and roles are defined.
Brewers Probable Starter: Jacob Misiorowski
Jacob Misiorowski gets the call for Milwaukee. The hard-throwing right-hander has been one of the more intriguing arms in the Brewers system, and outings like this one against a major-league lineup are exactly the kind of test that defines a pitcher's trajectory. Misiorowski's stuff is not in question — it's about sequencing, command, and getting through a lineup a second and third time. The Angels will put him under pressure early.
Angels Probable Starter: Walbert Ureña
Ureña gets the nod for Los Angeles. He'll be facing a Brewers lineup that has enough pieces to do damage if the ball is left over the plate. Milwaukee will look to be aggressive early and force Ureña to work deep into counts.

Keys to Watch for the Brewers
- Misiorowski's command: His pure stuff can get hitters out, but the Angels have names in this lineup that will punish mistakes. Watch how he handles Trout and the middle of the order the second time through.
- Chourio and Contreras producing: Jackson Chourio hitting second and William Contreras anchoring the cleanup spot gives this Brewers lineup a legitimate middle-of-the-order backbone. Those two driving runs home is the clearest path to a Milwaukee win.
- Turang setting the table: Brice Turang leading off means Milwaukee needs him reaching base and creating chaos on the basepaths. His ability to get on and put pressure on Ureña early will dictate the tone of the game.
- Containing Trout: Mike Trout hitting second is a problem any pitcher has to account for. Misiorowski cannot let Trout beat him with a fastball in a hitter's count. Keep him off the bases and the Angels' offense becomes considerably more manageable.
Prediction
This figures to be a close, low-scoring game. Misiorowski has the upside to dominate, and if his command is sharp, the Brewers have enough offense with Chourio, Contreras, and Mitchell to scratch out the runs they need. The Angels' lineup is not without danger — Trout alone demands respect — but Milwaukee's pitching edge feels real here. Brewers win, 4-2.
