Breakdown

It was a full-blown West Coast trip last week, with the Brewers visiting Los Angeles to take on the Angels. They would drop game one but bounce back to take the next two, backed by the pitching staff only surrendering five combined runs. That staff would struggle over the next three games when the Brewers would head to San Diego. The Padres would get to Byrse Wilson, Colin Rea, and Carlos Rodriguez in the first three games, with neither man going more than five innings and each surrendering at least four runs. The offense would struggle to come behind in those three games as well. Game four would see the Brewers' offense jump to a lead early, scoring 5 in the second. Tobias Myers would deliver another fantastic start, and they'd avoid the sweep. 

Highlights

Brice Turang has a knack for the Grand Slam.

Robbing a game-tying home run with two outs in the 9th seems to be a requirement for Brewers’ center fielders.

Christain Yelich’s 200th career bomb.
