The Milwaukee Brewers’ bullpen and defense were poor enough today to allow the Colorado Rockies to squeeze out a 7-5 win in the Brewers’ opener at Miller Park.
Brewers’ starter Junior Guerra went just three innings, allowing two runs on a second inning two run shot by ex-Brewer Mark Reynolds on a hanging split finger fastball. Guerra pulled a calf muscle after laying down a sacrifice bunt in the bottom of the third and limped off the field. He allowed just the one hit, hit a batter, walked a batter, and fanned four.
