Pirates Top Brewers

MILWAUKEE, WI (WSAU) — The Pittsburgh Pirates built a 5-0 lead and held off a Milwaukee rally to earn an 8-6 win over the Brewers on Monday night at American Family Field. Jake Bauers hit his 4th homer of the season and had 4 RBIs. Willy Adames drove in the other two Milwaukee runs. Colin Rea took the loss. It was a rare stinker for the Milwaukee bullpen as three pitchers gave up five runs. The Brewers also lost Rhys Hoskins who left the game after injuring his hamstring. The severity of the injury will be determined today. Milwaukee, now 24-17 and still in first place in the Central, will host the Pirates again tonight…pre game show at 6:05 on WSAU.
