McGehee, a goat turned hero in Brewers win

June 30, 2009 By WRN Contributor

Casey McGehee Casey McGehee dropped a routine pop fly in the 6th inning that led to a couple of Mets runs, but he made up for it in a big way by clubbing his first career grand slam in leading the Brewers to a 10-6 win over the New York Mets in their series opener at Miller Park on Monday night.

The Brewers also got a four hit night from J.J. Hardy, who went a triple shy of the cycle.  As a team, the Brewers collected 19 hits, the most they've had since 2005.  McGehee has been the teams hottest hitter since he because a regular.  He entered last night's game hitting .371 in his previous 28 games.

Braden Looper earned the win, his 6th of the season.  Trevor Hoffman had to come on to get a 1-pitch save in the 9th.  After Carlos Villanueva struggled in the 9th, Hoffman's only pitch turned into a double play that preserved the win and earned him his 572nd career save. 

The Mets have dropped 4-straight and have fallen a game under .500 (37-38).  Game two of the series is tonight.
