Brewers put on a fireworks show in Labor Day rout of Cardinals

Box Score

It may have been a day game in Milwaukee, but the fireworks came out anyway. The Brewers scored nine runs, all off of three home runs. The end result was a 9-3 rout of the Cardinals.

All it took was five batters for the Brewers to take the lead. After Jackson Chourio and Jake Bauers drew walks, Willy Adames came up for the first time on his 29th birthday. Once again, three was his lucky number as he hit another three-run home run. It tied him with Ken Griffey Jr. for the most three-run home runs in an MLB season with 13.
