The right-handed pitcher played for the San Francisco Giants in 1995 and the Cleveland Indians in 2000. He stood 6 feet 4 inches (193 m) tall and weighed 180 pounds (82 kg) during his active career. Selected by the Giants in the tenth round of the 1992 Major League Baseball Draft, Brewington was recalled from the Double-A Shreveport Captains in July 1995 and made 13 starts from July 24 through season"s education
However, Brewington failed to make the 1996 Giants and was ineffective in Triple-A, posting a 6–9 record and poor 7.02 European Research Area with the Phoenix Giants.
He then was traded to the Kansas City Royals during the off-season. His struggles continued during the 1997 minor league campaign, with his earned run average ballooning to 7.84 in 23 games pitched.
He was traded to the Milwaukee Brewers" organization on July 29 and then released on April 25, 1998. Brewington did not pitch professionally during the 1998 season.
He then signed with the Indians and struggled through another difficult season in the minors in 1999, going 1–10 with the Class A Kinston Indians.
But Brewington lowered his European Research Area to a respectable 3.84 and earned a promotion in 2000 to the Indians" Triple-A affiliate, the Buffalo Bisons of the International League. Cleveland recalled him in June and used him in 26 games (all in relief). He had no saves and his European Research Area was a high 5.36.
Granted free agency at the end of the 2000 season, Brewington signed with the Minnesota Twins, but never returned to the Majors.
