MILWAUKEE -- Ryan Braun came off the Brewers' bench Thursday in grand fashion.
No, Braun didn't hit a grand slam. But with a pinch-hit three-run homer in the Brewers' game-breaking seven-run sixth inning against the Marlins at Miller Park, Braun reached 1,000 career RBIs.
He's the 284th player in Major League history to get to that plateau, matching Darryl Strawberry's career mark. Braun was already second in Brewers history to Robin Yount's 1,406 career RBIs.
Braun was limited to bench duty for a second straight game on Thursday because of a sore calf, and he's also missed time recently with back stiffness.
