Mets' Luis Severino had a shaky debut whereas Edwin Diaz made a strong comeback after being out last season.
Rhys Hoskins faced fan hostility but delivered a notable performance with a two-run single and a homerun.
Brewers' closer Abner Uribe sealed the game with a save, ensuring the victory for Milwaukee.
Mets' Jeff McNeil is not pursuing revenge, focusing instead on playing quality baseball and aiming to win the series.
