The host Brewers improved to 7-1 on this home stand and asserted their hold on the division lead with a 8-3 victory Monday afternoon at Miller Park. The Cardinals got two home runs, including Yairo Munoz's first in the majors, and were able to tighten the game down to a run before the Brewers pulled away late.
Cardinals starter Luke Weaver managed only four innings and allowed four runs on five hits and a couple walks. The Brewers got out to a 1-0 lead in the second inning when Ryan Braun doubled and scored on Manny Pina's single.
