The Brewers escaped with a victory despite some shaky bullpen work after six strong innings from Brandon Woodruff, taking the rubber match against the Reds, 7-6.
After Woodruff struck out the side to start the game, the Brewers’ offense got off to a hot start themselves. Christian Yelich and Willy Adames both singled before Rowdy Tellez drove them in with a double to make it 2-0 quickly.
Woodruff allowed the Reds to knot it up at 2-2 in the top of the second on two doubles and two singles, but the Brewers answered back with two outs in the bottom of the inning.
