Brewers 3-game win streak is history

September 14, 2014 By Bill Scott

Cincinnati starter David Holmberg entered Saturday’s game at Miller Park with a 8.25 ERA in four major-league appearances this season.  Those are the types of pitchers that have hurt the Milwaukee Brewers this season.

Holmberg held the Brewers to a run and two hits over six innings to earn his first victory, 5-1 over the Brewers before a sold out (45,205) Miller Park crowd.

The Brewers saw their 3-game win streak come to an end and they missed out on a chance to gain ground on the Pittsburg Pirates in the wild card race after Pittsburgh lost at home, 6-4 to the Chicago Cubs.  The Pirates still hold a game and a half lead on the Brewers for the final wildcard spot.

The Brewers continue to struggle scoring runs.  In 13 games this month, they’ve scored just 36 runs (less than 3 a game).

Right-hander Yovani Gallardo allowed two runs and four hits in six solid innings, but falls to 8-10 on the season.

The Reds broke the game open in the 7th inning.  Leading 2-1 at the time, Billy Hamilton clubbed a two-run triple off of reliever Zach Duke to make it 4-1.

The final game of the series is today.  Matt Garza (7-8, 3.83) pitches for the Brewers and Mike Leake (11-11, 3.62) goes for the Reds.
