Brent Suter picked up his first career win and Corey Knebel notched his first career save. Ryan Braun recorded two home runs and three RBIs in Wednesday’s 7-1 victory over Colorado, increasing his totals this month to 10 blasts and 28 RBIs. Boone Logan (2-3) then gave up a double to Villar to make it 4-3, struck out Scooter Gennett and intentionally walked Braun. “It’s a lottery when you face guys you’ve never seen”. Arenado said. “So I’m not going to say it doesn’t mean anything because I know I’ll be able to sleep a little better knowing I’m swinging the bat like I know I can but it’s tough knowing we got swept like this”.
It was a needed turnabout for Davies, who struggled mightily in his previous two starts (12 earned runs in nine innings).
“It’s always frustrating when you are winning late and don’t put the game away”, Colorado manager Walt Weiss said.
The Brewers extended the lead to 6-4 on a sacrifice fly by Domingo Santana off rookie Matt Carasiti in the eighth. Looking at video and making sure you are sequencing the right way, you can get guys out. The last time was when Donovan Hand got a win and Alfredo Figaro a save on September 28, 2013 at the New York Mets.
“I felt good”, Anderson said.
Miller Park ushers quickly called for medical assistance, and the woman was assisted for about 8 minutes before being carried out on a sitting stretcher.
NOTES: Rockies 2B D.J. LeMahieu sat out a second straight game with an inflamed left wrist. CF Charlie Blackmon returned to the lineup after not starting four games with a bruised right toe.
Kuhl twice has walked four batters in a game but has issued a total of just one in his other five starts.Peralta is 1-2 with a 3.50 ERA in three starts since returning to the Brewers after a almost two-month demotion to Triple-A Colorado Springs. Counsell said Guerra (right elbow inflammation) likely would make a rehab start Saturday for Triple-A Colorado Springs, and that Barnes (right forearm strain) and Middlebrooks (lower right leg strain) likely won’t return until September.
