MILWAUKEE — A concentrated dose of dominance from starter Sonny Gray and a steady stream of offense was not enough to firewall the Cardinals from their own generosity in the late innings.
Hit batters and walks plunged the Cardinals into extra innings against the Brewers, and the division leaders are ones to turn down the assistance.
Andruw Monasterio delivered a walk-off single in the 10th inning to complete Milwaukee’s comeback for a 9-8 victory Saturday night at American Family Field. Milwaukee’s 11th walk-off win of the season came hours after the Cardinals led by as many as five runs.
They’ve now lost five consecutive games.
Milwaukee loaded the bases before the Cardinals could get an out in the eighth inning, and in the ninth the Brewers got their first RBI base hit of the game. J
