Ryan Braun’s grand slam in ninth inning pushes Brewers past Cardinals to win series finale

You might not believe it by looking at the final score, but today’s series finale between the Milwaukee Brewers and St. Louis Cardinals was quite the pitchers’ duel for the first six innings. Chase Anderson got the start for the visitors and worked four innings while allowing only one hit, which unfortunately was a solo home run by Harrison Bader in the third. He issued two walks and struck out six, but was trailing to Michael Wacha 1-0 when he was pulled after 64 pitches.

The Brewers put plenty of balls in play against Wacha during his five innings, but couldn’t break through for any runs.
