Miley exited the game with two outs in the
second inning with what the team called a lat strain. He allowed
one run on one hit -- Nolan Arenado's home run leading off the
second.
Relievers Elvis Peguero and Hoby Milner followed Miley and each
pitched 1 1/3 scoreless innings. Joel Payamps (2-0) blanked the
Cardinals for 1 2/3 innings, then Peter Strzelecki got four
outs.
Devin Williams pitched the final 1 2/3 innings to earn his sixth
save.
Cardinals starting pitcher Jordan Montgomery (2-6) allowed three
runs on eight hits in 5 1/3 innings. He struck out seven and
walked one.
Milwaukee took a 1-0 lead in the first inning when Owen Miller
hit a leadoff double and Willy Adames drove him in with a
one-out double.
Arenado tied the game 1-1 with his eighth homer of the season,
which ran his home run streak to five games.
The Cardinals moved ahead 2-1 in the fourth inning when Tommy
Edman hit a two-out double and scored on Brendan Donovan's
single.
Wiemer tied the game 2-2 with a fifth-inning homer. Miller and
William Contreras followed with singles and Adames walked, but
Montgomery struck out Mike Brosseau and got Darin Ruf to fly out
to leave the bases loaded.
Anderson hit a homer leading off the sixth inning to put the
Brewers up 3-2.
Nolan Gorman and Edman hit one-out singles in the bottom of the
sixth inning. Gorman advanced on a flyout and Edman stole second
base, but Andrew Knizner struck out to strand them.
With one out in the eighth inning, Gorman walked and raced to
third on Edman's single. But Williams relieved Strzelecki,
struck out Donovan and then retired Alec Burleson on comebacker.
