MILWAUKEE – In a game where Luis Castillo and Brandon Woodruff lived up to the hype in a pitcher’s duel Wednesday, it was Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Avisaíl García who stole the show.
García nearly did it all. He hit a go-ahead double off Castillo in the fourth inning. He threw out a runner at second base in the sixth and he robbed a homer in the eighth.
The Cincinnati Reds had no answers for García or Woodruff in a 4-1 loss at American Family Field. The Brewers have virtually locked up a division title before September, taking a 9.
