Walks, home runs kill Brewers in 11-4 loss to Cubs

The Brewers helped themselves in the playoff race quite a bit over the weekend, but were unable to finish off a sweep of the Chicago Cubs, losing the series finale 11-4.

The short and simple recap of this game: walks and home runs killed Zach Davies.

The right-hander turned in his second straight rough start, fighting his command for much of the afternoon, allowing 7 runs in 5 innings despite allowing only 4 hits. It would be his 3 walks that came back to haunt him, though, as all 3 ended up scoring on Kyle Schwarber home runs.
