Swept in Milwaukee. An Off Day. Then the Cubs.

STL  0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 -- 1
MIL  0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 0 -- 2

Dustin May was dealing -- 7.0 IP, 2 H, 1 ER, 0 BB, 9 K -- and Bryan Torres's 4th-inning RBI triple (scoring Jordan Walker) staked the Cardinals to a 1-0 lead. The bullpen handed it back in the bottom of the 8th: Christian Yelich's RBI single tied the game, then a Masyn Winn fielding error on a Jackson Chourio grounder let Sal Frelick score the go-ahead run. The series result: swept 0-3 in Milwaukee, the fourth straight loss for St. Louis.
