This was a bad day for the Brewers. Sometimes, that’s going to happen. Unfortunately, their troubles mostly came from two of the Cardinals rookies.
Adrian Houser got hit hard today. He started behind when the Cardinals’ second batter, rookie Nolan Gorman, hit a solo home run in the first to give the Cardinals a 1-0 lead. Gorman was a big problem for the Brewers today as he went 4-for-4 with 4 RBI, with three of those four hits scoring runs. The other problem for the Brewers today was Paul Goldschmidt, who was 3-for-4 with a home run and had the other 4 RBI for the Cardinals.
