The Brewers’ offense continued its explosive start to the second half, falling just shy of another double-digit scoring day in a 9-4 win over the Red Sox on Saturday.
After Christian Yelich led off the game with a double and advanced to third on a passed ball, Rowdy Tellez drove him in with a squibber down the third-base line.
That was the last of Milwaukee’s scoring that came on weak contact. In the second inning, Omar Narvaez golfed a Nick Pivetta curveball into the Red Sox bullpen for a solo home run, increasing the lead to 2-0.
