The Brewers knocked around Matt Cain early and often, but it wasn’t enough to put away the Giants as San Francisco crawled back for a 6-4 victory Wednesday at Maryvale Baseball Park.
Jesus Aguilar’s incredible spring continued, as he homered for the fifth time to increase his Cactus League-leading 1.407 OPS. After going 2-for-3, he was replaced by Ryan Aguilar (no relation, probably), who singled in his first major league at bat of the spring.
Cain allowed four runs on seven hits, including Aguilar’s home run. Milwaukee’s starter Jimmy Nelson should have fared much better, as he allowed just three baserunners over 5.
