Brewers Can’t Find Bats in Sunday’s Loss

Yovani Gallardo struggled Sunday afternoon picking up the loss.

The Milwaukee Brewers could not find an answer for the LA Dodgers on Sunday afternoon, losing 7-4. The Dodgers took the series two games to one and left the Brewers just two games over .500 at the all-star break, a far cry from the 12 over they had earlier this season.

Gallardo was only able to go 5.0 innings and gave up five earned runs in picking up his third consecutive loss.

The Dodgers put an early two runs on the board in the first inning then added four runs in the fourth through sixth innings.

The Brewers finally added runs in the seventh and eighth innings but then gave one right back when Orlando Hudson hit his second home run of the game in the eighth.

Ryan Braun continued to slump as well by going 0-5 in the game, only 1-17 in the last four games, and 8-44 with one walk in the last ten games.

Hopefully, the all-star break could help, but he’ll be there, too.

Let’s hope they can turn it around Thursday.

The Brewers and Dodgers meet again August 3-5 in LA.
