The Milwaukee Brewers defeated the St. Louis Cardinals 8-3 on Monday night to beat the Cardinals three games to one in their four game series.  The Brewers are now 19-19 on the season and four games behind the league leading Chicago Cubs.

Ryan Braun led the Brewers on Monday night with two solo home runs in the game as he finished with two rbi.  Bill Hall also had a solo home run in the game to account for his one rbi.  Corey Hart finished with two rbi as he had a two run single in the third inning.  Mike Cameron also had a rbi ground rule double in the third inning.

Dave Bush finally picked up his first win of the season as he improved to 1-4.  Bush tossed six innings of four hit baseball while only letting one run score.  Eric Gagne pitched two innings of relief after Bush exited the game and he was his normal self as he gave up two walks and let one run score.  Mitch Stetter then walked four batters to let another run score.  So the Brewers bullpen really didn’t pitch well, it was a good thing that Bush only gave up one run before turning the game over to the bullpen.

The Brewers now welcome the Los Angeles Dodgers into town as they will play a three game series.  Brewers Blog
