(The Sports Xchange) - A bad week at the end of a bad season got even worse for the Milwaukee Brewers as they dropped a 9-7 decision to the Cincinnati Reds and lost infielder Elian Herrera and outfielder Shane Peterson to injury on Saturday.

"It was a rough night," said manager Craig Counsell, whose team has lost eight successive games and dropped back into last place in the National League Central.

The Brewers had watched 2-0 and 6-3 leads disappear before outfielder Domingo Santana put them up 7-6 with an RBI single in the seventh inning.
