Brewers 8, Pirates 5: Milwaukee continues to roll

Win: Nelson (7-9)
Loss: Worley (3-5)
Save: Rodriguez (21)

HR: Lucroy (3), Ramirez (11), Davis (7)

Two Brewers' struggling to re-establish their value had big games on Saturday as Milwaukee took their second straight game against Pittsburgh, this time by an 8-5 score.

Aramis Ramirez had perhaps his best game of the year, going 3-3 with a solo home run, a walk, and a hit-by-pitch. He also drove in two runs and scored a pair himself. Scooter Gennett also had a nice game, going 3-5 with a run and an RBI.

Those two helped the Brewers come back from an early deficit as Jimmy Nelson gave up three runs to the Pirates in the first inning.
