The Milwaukee Brewers edged the Oakland Athletics 15-14 in 12 innings on Monday at Las Vegas Ballpark, a venue already living up to its reputation as a hitter’s paradise. The game featured 11 home runs, including a 483-foot blast from A’s slugger Shea Langeliers, the longest of the 2025 season. The contest was a back-and-forth slugfest that saw the Brewers take a late lead only to see the A’s respond with a tying homer from Jonah Heim, before Milwaukee held on in the 12th.
William Contreras delivered a key three-run home run in the 10th inning, giving Milwaukee a 14-10 lead. But the A’s refused to go away. Nick Kurtz brought his team within one with a solo shot in the bottom half of the inning. Heim then tied the game with a solo blast of his own, setting the stage for a dramatic 12th.
Milwaukee regained the lead in the 12th inning and closer Chad Patrick preserved the win by stranding a runner at third base. The Brewers improved to 18-13 on the season, while the A’s dropped to 14-18. With six games remaining at the hitter-friendly Las Vegas Ballpark, expect more fireworks from both clubs.
Meanwhile, Blue Jays right-hander Dylan Cease is set to return to the rotation on Tuesday against the Phillies. Cease has been sidelined with a left hamstring strain but is expected to throw a near-full workload after logging 75 pitches in a recent rehab start. Toronto is finally seeing key additions return to action, with Max Scherzer scheduled to start on Wednesday and Shane Bieber close to rejoining the club.
In another major league return, veteran first baseman Trey Mancini made his 2025 debut with the Angels on Monday. Mancini, who hadn’t played in the majors since 2023 with the Cubs, recorded an RBI single in his first at-bat and added two more hits later in the game. The 34-year-old signed a minor league deal with Los Angeles in January and could see time at first base and as a designated hitter while Nolan Schanuel remains on the injured list with an ankle injury.
The Nationals also made headlines with a dramatic 4-3 comeback win over the Giants in the ninth inning. Washington erased a 3-1 deficit in the final frame, marking their first win in 30 games when trailing entering the ninth. The victory cut their record to 12-21 on the season.
The Brewers and A’s will continue their series in Las Vegas on Tuesday. Dylan Cease and the Blue Jays will look to get back on track against the Phillies, while the Angels will evaluate Mancini’s role in the lineup moving forward.
