Milwaukee Brewers
CHICAGO, IL (WSAU) — The Brewers mustered just four hits in a 6-5 extra-innings loss to the Cubs on Saturday.
Most of the offense came in unconventional ways including an RBI groundout by Andrew McCutchen which opened the scoring in the first. Willy Adames then homered to score Christian Yelich.
The game went to the 10th tied at 3. Milwaukee scored their placed runner on a base hit by Mike Brosseau, the Cubs matched in the bottom of the inning and the game went to the 11th.
Kolten Wong reached on a fielder’s choice to bring home McCutchen in the top of the frame, but the Cubs would get two to walk it off on a base hit by Wilson Contreras.
Adames finished the game 2-4 with two RBI and a run scored. Freddy Peralta got the start and went six innings, allowing four hits and two earned runs. He didn’t factor in the decision.
Devin Williams was charged with a blown save. Peter Strzelecki took the loss.
The same two teams will meet again this afternoon. Pregame coverage begins at 12:45 on WSAU.
