After winning the opener on Monday against Colorado, the Brewers hoped to take the series in game two. Brandon Woodruff got the start on the mound for the Crew against Chad Kuhl for the Rockies. With the Brewers only 2.5 games back from the last wildcard spot, all of these games down the stretch are extremely important.
Milwaukee struck early, as Yelich hit a 499-foot home run to lead off the game, and Renfroe hit a two-run home run later in the inning that scored Adames, giving the Brewers an early 3-0 lead The Rockies would answer in the bottom of the third when Montero hit a solo home run to left that cut the Brewers lead to two.
