June 14, 2025
Catchers Willson and William Contreras became the second pair of brothers to homer in the same inning as opponents in baseball’s modern era. Both went deep Saturday in the ninth inning of the St. Louis Cardinals’ 8-5 win over the Milwaukee Brewers that snapped the Cards’ six-game skid. Willson Contreras’ ninth homer of the season, a solo shot to right-center, gave St. Louis an 8-4 lead in the top of the ninth. William Contreras led off the bottom half of the inning with his sixth homer. The Contreras brothers are the first to homer in the same inning as opponents since Rick and Wes Ferrell on July 19, 1933.
