Monasterio didn’t even enter the game until the eighth inning as a defensive replacement. He was plunked by Riley O’Brien in the ninth inning and ultimately scored during the Brewers’ game-tying three-run rally. He then played the role of hero in the 10th as he battled Kyle Leahy for a 10-pitch at-bat before serving the game-winning single into center field to plate Caleb Durbin with the winning run and send the Brewers’ home faithful into a frenzy. The 28-year-old infielder is now hitting .290/.339/.486 with four homers and 16 RBI in 115 plate appearances with the Brewers on the season.

Monasterio, filling in for the injured Joey Ortiz at shortstop, had an RBI single in the third and a 404-foot homer in the fourth. One of several role players to step up in a thus-far incredibly successful season for the Brewers, Monasterio has a .779 OPS in 87 plate appearances. He’ll remain in the lineup regularly while Ortiz is out.

The Brewers needed all three runs, too, as the Reds came back with two in the bottom of the 11th against Nick Mears. The Brewers have won 14 straight games.

Monasterio is up to take the roster spot of Vinny Capra, as Capra was awful (4-for-54) before being designated for assignment. The 27-year-old will be a versatile bench option with Milwaukee, and he could get a start or two a week. There won’t be enough playing time or success with said time to make him a fantasy option.
