Brewers starter Seth McClung gave up a couple of first inning runs, but held St. Louis scoreless through five innings. Rickie Weeks gave Milwaukee the lead with a 3-run blast in the 5 th and that's how it stayed until the 9 th as Guillermo Mota, Eric Gagne, and David Riske threw scoreless frames.
St. Louis touched closer Salomon Torres for a run in the 9 th to send the game into extra innings. Bill Hall then led off the 10 th with a solo homer as Milwaukee scored 3 runs off of Ryan Franklin in the inning. Torres pitched a scoreless 10 th for the win.
