It was a back and forth battle on Easter Sunday, but in the end, the Brewers came out ahead as they took a series tie with a 6-5 win.
In his first start of the season, Aaron Ashby got into trouble early when he loaded the bases in the first inning. However, he came back strong with two strikeouts to end the first and keep the Cardinals off the board. That let the Brewers get the early lead. The first three Brewers batters reached base on two walks and a hit by pitch. They would all come around to score.
