The Cardinals’ 10th win in 11 games, a 7-2 triumph over the Brewers before a sellout crowd of 46,040 Saturday night at Busch Stadium, enabled the victors to change places with Milwaukee in the Central Division standings and propelled them to 12 games over .500.
Mikolas, for the ninth time in his past 11 starts, held the opposition to two runs or fewer, in this instance one. For the 18th time in 25 starts, he walked one or none, in this case nobody. Mikolas. 3-0 against the Brewers, struck out seven and yielded just five hits, one of them Travis Shaw’s home run, in six innings.
