Last night's game was the definition of a horrible game for the Brewers. Let's start with the obvious: the Cardinals just destroyed them. Jimmy Nelson allowed four runs in two innings, and David Goforth allowed another two runs in four innings. The Brewers managed no runs and five hits through 8 2/3 innings of the game. They made the score look respectable with three straight hits in the ninth, the last a three-run home run from Jean Segura. However, this game was never close at all.
The bigger news of the game was what happened to Jimmy Nelson.
