Brewers take early lead, hold off Mets rally for 8-6 win

The Brewers are back on a little winning streak after a tough series in St. Louis.

The scoring started right away in the first inning. Lorenzo Cain led off with a single, then two batters later, Mike Moustakas came up in the #3 spot today. He hit a simple ground ball to third and was thrown out easily, but on the play, first baseman Pete Alonso was looking Cain back to second, and ended up throwing to second. It sailed high and went into left field, and Cain took off and scored easily, giving the Brewers a 1-0 lead.
