(WNFL) – The Milwaukee Brewers committed 2 errors and make other plays in the field, allowing the Chicago Cubs to come back from a 2-0 first-inning deficit in an 8-3 loss at American Family Field in Milwaukee last night.
Brewers starting pitcher Jason Alexander gave up 7 runs in 5 1/3 innings to take the loss but it wasn’t all his fault said Brewers manager Craig Counsell.
Alexander didn’t share that point of view completely, saying he may have become too predictable.
But Brewers first baseman Rowdy Tellez who hit a 2-run home run in the first inning said that the defense didn’t do its job.
Matt Swarmer got the win for the Cubs in relief of Kyle Hendricks who left after 3 innings with a sore shoulder.
The two teams meet in game 3 of the series this afternoon at American Family Field. It’s a 12:35 pre-game and 1:10 first pitch on 1440 and 101.9 WNFL.
