June 26- MIL 5 SF 1
39-34 EVEN with STL
Yovanni Bests Cain
Hooo RAY! Percentage points ahead of the Cards. It's .534 to .533, but it's still first. Matt Cain had only lost 1 game all season long and was on a 7 game winning streak, but tonight Milwaukee scored 5 runs off the righty in 6 innings, which stood up with the way Yovanni Gallardo was pitching. After giving up a dinger Pablo Sandoval in the first, Gallardo kept the Giants from scoring for the rest of his 7.2 innings. He struck out 9 and walked 3 to improve to 8-4. J.J. Hardy, still slowly turning things around, had a home run and 2 hits to add to the early Brewer's lead that was built with the help of Braun's 2-4, 2 RBI day. Didn't hear a lick of this game because I was in Logan for the MS Ride, but considering that the Crew tends to turn things up when I'm away from game involvement, I'm thinking my trip was well planned.
