Season series: Tied 8-8
The Brewers had a game plan against Cardinals LHP Jordan Montgomery Tuesday night and handed him his first loss since coming to St. Louis. The Brewers did an excellent job of hitting the gaps in order to win 8-4. The Brew Crew has won 5 of 6 and sit 7 games out in the division and 2 from a wild-card spot.
St. Louis has cooled off at 2-3 in the last 5 games. The Cardinals are still scoring runs, though, with 23 plated during the stretch. St. Louis has history on the horizon as RHP Adam Wainwright and C Yadier Molina will be batterymates for a record 325th career game. Will that be a distraction or a catalyst Wednesday?
