In the final game of a 3-game series with the St. Louis Cardinals, the Milwaukee Brewers were looking to extend their lead over the Cardinals and Cincinnati Reds, who lost today. And boy did they. What looked to be a frustrating loss to the Cardinals turned into anything but, as Milwaukee won 6-5. But it was the way they won that was just so utterly satisfying.
The Brewers were the first to get in the board. In the bottom of the second inning, birthday boy, Pablo Reyes, took Cardinals’ starter, Jon Lester, over the left field wall to stake Milwaukee to a 1-0 lead.
