Adrian Houser gave up doubles to Jorge Alfaro and Scott Kingery to account for a run in these less-than-ideal circumstances. In 7 games for Milwaukee that season, he was 0-0 with a 3.29 ERA.
In 2019, he enjoyed his first full major league season, making 18 starts in 35 appearances, pitching 111 1/3 innings and finishing with a 6-7, 3.72 ERA.
He struck out 117 batters throughout the regular season but did not pitch in the postseason.
He was the starter in 11 of 12 appearances in 2020, during a season that was cut short to 60 games due to the Coronavirus epidemic, although he did not pitch as well as the year before, finishing at 1-6, 5.30.
His strikeout rate dropped to 44 in 56 innings, but he did make his postseason debut, pitching two scoreless innings in relief as the Milwaukee Brewers were swept in the Wild Card Series by the Los Angeles Dodgers.
He was one of the lesser-known members of a stellar starting rotation that included three All-Stars in 2021, but on September 4th, he became the first Brewers pitcher to pitch a complete game since Jimmy Nelson in 2017 and the first since Kyle Lohse in 2014 to pitch a nine-inning shutout, as he defeated the St. Louis Cardinals 4-0. The longest drought in major league history was 1,011 games between shutouts.
