Au Contreras: Brewers 5, Phillies 3

When I recapped Tuesday’s game, I mentioned that with Cristopher Sanchez on the mound, the Phillies would need to clean up their game if they wanted to extend their winning streak to five games. The Phillies did not clean things up. Thanks to another mistake-filled game, as well as a huge night by catcher William Contreras, the Phillies’ winning streak came to an end with a 5-3 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers.

After a scoreless first inning, Sanchez ran into trouble in the second. Some of it was not his fault (Edmundo Sosa committed an error), but some of it was (he allowed a single and two doubles in the inning), and the Brewers were out to a 3-0 lead.
