CHICAGO, ILL (WSAU) — The Milwaukee Brewers scored seven first inning runs on the way to a 10-0 win over the Chicago Cubs on Wednesday night at Wrigley Field.

Omar Narvaez was 3-3 with four RBIs including his 11th home run. Lorenzo Cain drove in two runs. Christian Yelich, Kolten Wong and Tyrone Taylor also had RBIs. The Brewers banged out 16 hits in the victory.
Milwaukee is now 69-46 and will go for the four game sweep this afternoon…pre game show at 12:45 on WSAU.
