Brewers salvage final game against Cubs

April 9, 2007 By WRN Contributor

After dropping the first two games in the series, the Milwaukee Brewers finally go to the Cubs, winning yesterday on Easter Sunday, beating Chicago 9-4 at Miller Park.

The Brewers finally got to their longtime nemesis, scoring six runs off of Cubs right hander Wade Miller, avoiding a 3-game sweep. Miller entered Sunday's game with a 6-0 record at Miller Park and a 11-1 mark against the Brewers overall. 

Miller allowed back to back home runs by Geoff Jenkins and Gabe Gross as a part of a four-run second inning.  Starting and winning pitcher Chris Capuano contributed an rbi single as well.  Capuano retired the first 11 Cubs in order and ended up allowing 2 runs and scattering 4-hits in 5 1/3 innings of work. 

Craig Counsell had 3 hits and drove in three runs with a bases loaded triple in the 8th. 

The Brewers begin a 8-game road trip with the Florida Marlins tonight in Miami.
