The Milwaukee Brewers continue a road trip Saturday night in St. Louis as they take on the Cardinals in game 2 of 3 in the series. Milwaukee comes into Saturday night 10 games over .500 riding a 2 game win streak following a 4-3 win over the Tampa Bay Rays. Brandon Woodruff got the start for the Brewers allowing 3 runs on 4 hits across 7 innings leading to a no decision. The Brewers bullpen held true before Devin Williams came on to allow no runs on no hits to secure the win.
Offensively the Brewers did just enough with 7 hits in 34 at bats including 3-6 with runners in scoring position, while leaving 8 men on base. Rowdy Tellez had the biggest at bat of the game with a pinch hit solo home run in the 9th, while 3 other Brewers drove in 1 run each.
The St. Louis Cardinals go back home Saturday with a 61-50 overall record after winning 3 of the last 5 games played following an 8-6 loss to the Colorado Rockies. The Cardinals hit the ball well going 12-37 as a team but went an abysmal 2-12 with runners in scoring position to leave 7 men on base.
