Milwaukee could have had a real ugly weekend if the offense didn't come through in the sixth inning. A sweep to the Philadelphia Phillies at home isn't good, but it's even worse when the next series is at Chicago versus the red-hot Cubs. Thankfully, Milwaukee found a way to win one game out of the series before visiting the Northsiders on Tuesday.
Sunday
Milwaukee 8 Philadelphia 5: Ryan Braun and Chris Carter are what make the Brewers click with their lineup. When both players are running hot, this offense can put up five or six runs. I'm curious whether Jonathan Lucroy will be moved to fifth in order to pair Braun and Carter back-to-back. Both players are red hot to begin the season. Good to see Kirk Niewenhuis, Jonathan Villar and Alex Presley all get in the mix as well. Wily Peralta pitched okay which is his second straight average outing. Peralta still had some issues yet he worked around those problems.
Saturday
Philadelphia 10 Milwaukee 6: Chase Anderson had another rough start on the mound as Maikel Franco took him to town as well as Osdual Herrera. Milwaukee came very close to stealing this one. Aaron Hill hit a sacrifice fly very deep into left which would have been a three-run homer and a Brewers lead if it carries a little bit more. Additionally, Milwaukee went from trailing by one to four in the ninth with a Cesar Hernandez double off Jeremy Jeffress then a Herrera home run. Braun and Carter both went deep in this game as well.
