Having split their games on Monday and Tuesday, the Milwaukee Brewers and St. Louis Cardinals needed to decide a series winner tonight at American Family Field. After Brewers starter Colin Rea got off to a shaky start, it looked like it might be a high-scoring affair, but after that first inning, the game settled in as a pitcher’s duel between Rea (and later DL Hall) and Cardinals starter Sonny Gray. But while the Milwaukee offense was just able to muster enough to tie the game and send it to extra innings, for the second straight night they were unable to pick up an overtime victory.
