The party’s over. For now.
Ryan Braun launched two homers and five RBI and Chris Carter had a grand slam in the Milwaukee Brewers' 11-3 victory over the Cubs on Saturday afternoon at Wrigley Field.
Jake Arrieta threw six innings, four hits, four runs (three earned), four walks and five strikeouts on 102 pitches. He recorded the loss and is 17-7 on the season with a 2.96 ERA.
Arrieta had a solid outing through five innings but started to struggle in the sixth, which he believed changed the game.
"Really the turning point for me in that game was the two-run homer to Braun," Arrieta said.
