A pair of defensive gems from Sal Frelick in centerfield made the Milwaukee Brewers highlight reel.
In the second inning Sal Frelick came in on a line drive and made a diving catch. Later on in the game, in the eighth inning, he made a jumping superman type grab going back towards the warning track. Both of these were pivotal plays in the Brewers victory.

Sal Frelick needed a breakout type game.
Entering play on Tuesday against the Pirates Sal Frelick had a slash line of .241/.316/.292. He has been grinding at the plate, but now has hits in back-to-back games against Pittsburgh. Hopefully he can use this momentum to start a hot streak at the plate.
