Brewers win streak stops at four

April 16, 2017 By Bill Scott

The Milwaukee Brewers saw their four game road winning streak come to an end on Saturday, falling to the Central Division leading Cincinnati Reds 7-5 at Great American Ballpark.

Zach Davies struggled again early and racked up a high pitch count (96) by the time he got through the fifth inning.  This time, the Brewers bullpen didn’t lend a helping hand, as Carlos Torres surrendered three runs in the sixth inning and Jared Hughes gave up a run in the 7th.

It was former Brewers infielder Scooter Gennett, who singled in a run in the sixth inning, delivered with a run scoring double in the 7th.

Reds starter Brandon Finnegan couldn’t find the strike zone in the first inning, walking three batters and giving up a two-run double to center off the bat of Hernan Perez.  Finnegan’s day would be finished after the first, leaving with a strained shoulder muscle.

Scott Schebler led off the second with a home run off of Davies.  Eugenio Suarez doubled and later scored on a triple by Zach Cozart, who then scored on a ground out.

The Brewers dropped to 6-6 with the loss.  They’ll send Wily Peralta (2-0 2.45) to the mound today against Cincinnati’s Sal Romano, who is making his Major League debut.
