Maybe the Brewers should have told Ryan Braun to save a homer or two for the rest of this week's games.
Braun put on an amazing power display Monday night, becoming the first player ever to hit three homers in a game at Petco Park in San Diego, but the Brewers haven't hit a home run since. The streak is at three games and counting.
Tonight's game was the ninth time they've been held homerless in 2012, and the win improved them to 2-7 in those games. Tonight was the first time they've scored more than three runs without going deep:
Date | Opponent | Runs |
Tonight | Giants | 6* |
May 2 | Padres | 0 |
May 1 | Padres | 0 |
April 29 | Cardinals | 3* |
April 27 | Cardinals | 1 |
April 22 | Rockies | 1 |
April 19 | Dodgers | 3 |
April 14 | Braves | 1 |
April 12 | Cubs | 0 |

The Brewers were held homerless 60 times in 2011, and went 26-34 in those contests.
