Braves continue to out-tank Brewers; Mil 2, Atl 1

WP: Michael Blazek, 2-1 LP: Bud Norris, 1-6 Save: Jeremy Jeffress (12) Homeruns: Mil, Ryan Braun (8)

Combine two good pitchers and two struggling offenses and tonight's game is the result. The teams combined for 9 hits (Brewers 4, Braves 5), 23 strikeouts (Brewers 14, Braves 9), and 3 runs.The Brewers had 6 legitimate baserunners, (they walked twice...more later) and one illegitimate baserunner (Kirk Nieuwenhuis reached on a wild pitch while striking out in the second...more later), and made bad outs on the bases with two of those legitimate baserunners.

The Braves had 10 legitimate baserunners, and actually had 2 hits in an inning (something the Brewers didn't do) which plated their loan run.
