Junior Guerra provided the spark for the Milwaukee Brewers as he went 5 1/3 innings strong. He allowed four hits and an earned run. Guerra had two walks and struck out four.
Recently called up from AAA Colorado Springs, Guerra made a case that he belongs in the rotation going forward.
Wainwright solid
Longtime Cardinal Adam Wainwright held the Milwaukee Brewers to three earned runs over seven solid innings of work. Wainwright added four strikeouts.
He pitched well enough to keep his team in the contest, but the Cardinals offense was stifled by the Brewers pitching the majority of the game.
