Brewers 6, Nats 5: Just Enough

WP: Matt Garza (1-0) LP: Gio Gonzalez (3-7) Save: Jeremy Jeffress (21) Homeruns: Wash. none, Mil. - Chris Carter (18)

A strange game ended with the Brewers on top 6-5 today as the two teams honored Negro League teams, and the Crew has won the series against the (g)Nats going into tomorrow’s finale. The Brewers wore Milwaukee Bear uniforms while the Nationals had on those of the Homestead Grays.

The Brewers battered Nats starter Gio Gonzalez for 6 runs and 6 hits in 3 innings, highlighted by a 3 run first inning homerun by Chris Carter. They tacked on a run in the second on an RBI single up the middle by Jonathon Villar, driving in Keon Broxton.
