The Milwaukee Brewers are back in first place all by themselves today after pounding the Cincinnati Reds 10-5 on Sunday.

The Brewers started the game by clubbing three straight home runs, back-to-back-to-back off of the bats of Rickie Weeks, J.J. Hardy and Ryan Braun, all part of a six home run day for the Brewers in the win.

Ben Sheets picked up the win, improving to 12-4 on the season and 2-0 since his return to the lineup from a hand injury. 

The Brewers moved a full game in front of the Cubs and three games up on St. Louis in the Central after both those teams lost yesterday.

The Brewers open a series in Pittsburgh against the Pirates tonight.
