After winning the opener in their four-game weekend series against the Cardinals, the Brewers dropped game two after some lackluster production by the offense. Brandon Woodruff was on the mound against Dakota Hudson for St. Louis. Woodruff pitched well, allowing only two runs through his four innings pitched. Dakota Hudson has posted a 3.22 ERA so far this season, so he has shown the ability to pitch well in the Majors.
The first three innings were uneventful, until Paul Goldschmidt hit a two-run home run, his third home run in four days. Goldschmidt’s home run gave the Cardinals a 2-0 lead going into the fourth inning.
