For this young Brewers team, an incredibly stringent test begins in Philadelphia with a four-game series with the Phillies.

Carpenter finished a home run short of the cycle, scored four runs and drove in three as the Cardinals combined for 14 hits.

ST. LOUIS (AP) – Saint Louis University officials say its law school is trying to redefine itself after it mo.

The difference between the Milwaukee Brewers pitching staff of May and the pitching staff of April deserves our attention.

Carpenter is feasting on Brewers pitching so far.

Afterward, the Cardinals could do little but tip their caps to Davies for carving them up with unbelievable ease. Entering Monday, Martinez had a 1.34 ERA in 15 career games, including four starts, against Milwaukee. Third-place hitter Matt Holliday was 3 for 4 with three RBIs, including a 466-foot homer in the seventh off Marinez that landed in the top row of the bleachers in left. Cardinals left fielder Matt Holliday homered among his three hits Monday and is 8-for-12 with a pair of blasts and four RBIs over the past three games.

“We’ve always thought highly of him”. The Cardinals are tough outs for opponents, ranking fifth in the NL with 9.7 hits per road game.

“Just something that caught us off guard”, Wong said. Pitcher Wily Peralta allowed the first four St. Louis batters on base as the Cardinals went up 2-0. Peralta tossed over 30 pitches in the first inning, but settled down for a while, as his teammates made it a 3-2 game through the sixth inning. “He’s got a good arm, battled some injuries”, Counsell said of Ramirez, who had a 1.44 ERA in 50 appearances as a rookie in 2014. Ben Zobrist extended his hitting streak to a career-high-tying 16 games. Backup catcher Martin Maldonado would cap the Brewers scoring in the sixth with a rare solo home run for his first of the season.

Ryan Braun got the Brewers on the board with an RBI single in the first inning, one of his two hits in the game, and Martin Maldonado hit his first home run since September 16 – which also came at the Cardinals’ expense. The result was a home run, which makes no sense and somehow makes ideal sense. RHP Matt Garza was slated to start for Class A Wisconsin, while RHP Corey Knebel was scheduled to pitch for Class A Brevard County and OF Domingo Santana was in the starting lineup for Double-A Biloxi.
