After all, it had been about a week since Milwaukee fans had seen a win. In fact, it had been about a week since the Brewers saw a lead. In the interim, every game was a blow-out, a shut-out, or a potential come-from-behind win that instead fizzled out with the Crew one run down.
Immediately after that first pitch, though, Adrian Houser regrouped and delivered a top performance. He allowed one more first-inning hit, a soft single, and then retired the next eleven batters in a row.
