Brewers get shut out, 2-0

Brewers drop game three to Marlins

MLB: Miami Marlins at Milwaukee Brewers Jeff Hanisch-USA TODAY Sports

With a slim lead in the NL Central, the Brewers looked poised for a sweep of the Marlins, with Trevor Megill opening for Colin Rea and Braxton Garrett starting for Miami.

Both pitchers were dealing through four innings, but the Marlins were able to get on the board in the top of the fifth when Xavier Edwards hit an RBI single and then was thrown out at second trying to stretch it into a double, ending the inning with a 1-0 lead.

Milwaukee’s offense struggled against Garrett, and Miami tacked on another run late in the top of the seventh when Garrett Hampson doubled to left and scored Bryan De La Cruz.

The Marlins were able to hang onto their slim 2-0 lead and take the win over the Crew. Game four of the series is on Thursday at 1:10 p.m. CDT and features Adrian Houser against Eury Perez on Bally Sports Wisconsin and 620 WTMJ.
