The Brewers got a fantastic outing from Jimmy Nelson, but couldn't hold on to the win.
Win: Soriano (2-0)
Loss: Smith (4-2)
Save: Rondon (14)
HR: Rizzo (18)
You could be forgiven if you forgot the Brewers actually had to play a game today. In the midst of huge news about Milwaukee trading Carlos Gomez and Mike Fiers to the Houston Astros, the Brewers took a loss to the Cubs as Chicago came from behind late to win.
Jimmy Nelson made a spectacular start for the Brewers, pitching seven innings of two-hit ball against what can be a tough Cubs offense.
