The Brewers scored four runs in the top of the seventh, and earned a 4-3 comeback victory over the Cardinals last night. David Hamilton doubled home two runs, and Brice Turang plated two with a single. The outburst came just in time to secure the win for Shane Drohan, who allowed three runs on six hits over six innings. Only one of the runs was earned. Chad Patrick retired all six batters he faced in the seventh and eighth. Trevor Megill gave up a lead-off single in the ninth, then retired the side to claim the save.
Hamilton left the game after running out his double. He reported tightness in his left hamstring, and will be evaluated today.
The Brewers play a day-night doubleheader in Saint Louis today. The afternoon game makes up a rainout from May 5th. Jacob Misiorowski will start for the Crew. The Cards have not named a starter. Neither team has designated a starter for the night game.
