Brewers give up five home runs in blowout loss to Astros

Entering Monday, the Brewers trailed just the New York Mets for the most home runs a National League team gave up. They had allowed 61 home runs, outpacing the offense who had hit 56 before tonight. Corbin Burnes had only given up given five long balls all season before tonight.

Two hours and forty minutes later, a new leader would be at the bottom of the home run count. It started early and often for the Astros, who teed off on the Brewers to win their 8th straight, 12-2.

The damage started in the 2nd.
