The Milwaukee Brewers dropped their 4th straight and 7th in the last 10 yesterday, falling 5-4 to the San Francisco Giants yesterday. The Brewers were swept in the series and remain 1 1/2 games behind the Chicago Cubs in the NL Central.
Yet, somehow, the Brewers aren't even close to being out of it. They'll open a 3-game series in Chicago against the Cubs starting Tuesday.
Rich Aurilia singled home the game winning run in the 8th for the Giants as the Brewers blew another lead. The loss goes to Scott Linebrink, who fell to 4-5.
Brewers starter Dave Bush gave up four runs and six hits in 6 1/3 innings, briking out four and walking only one.
Ryan Braun hit a three run homer in the loss.
