Brewers Activate Joey Ortiz Ahead of Phillies Showdown

Ortiz returned from a hamstring strain as Milwaukee opened a key series with Philadelphia. The shortstop, valued for his defense, hit .239 with 11 homers and 60 RBIs last year but has struggled in 2025. Brewers, 6.5 games clear in the NL Central, also promoted reliever RP Craig Yoho to bolster the bullpen as the division race tightens.
