Four-run rallies power Brewers over Angels

MILWAUKEE -- The last time the Brewers beat the Angels in Milwaukee before Monday, the Brewers played at County Stadium, the Angels had just traded the "California" for an "Anaheim" in their name, and Jimmy Nelson was just shy of his eighth birthday.

Nineteen years later, the big Brewers right-hander did his part on the mound and at the plate to change that. Hot-hitting Milwaukee scored four runs in a fifth-inning rally that included Nelson's go-ahead single, and tacked on four more runs in the sixth to back his quality start in a 8-5 win at Miller Park, snapping the Angels' eight-game road winning streak against the Brewers which dated to May 1997.
