SAN FRANCISCO, CA (WHBL) – Lorenzo Cain homered for the second straight day as the Milwaukee Brewers beat the San Francisco Giants 5-2 on Wednesday night.
Cain was 2 for 3 in the game with two runs scored and three RBIs. Jace Peterson and Willy Adames drove in the other runs. Peterson’s RBI single in the 7th inning gave the Brewers the lead, which they never relinquished.
Brewer starter Brett Anderson had to leave the game after two innings. He was hit in the shoulder by a line drive. Milwaukee used seven pitchers to get through the game with Daniel Norris picking up the win and Josh Hader getting his 29th save.
The Brewers and Giants will wrap up this 4-game series Thursday afternoon with the Crew going for the sweep. Pregame coverage on WHBL will begin at 2:10.
Milwaukee also made some roster moves on Wednesday.
They signed former Brewer Keon Broxton to a minor league deal. He gives the team some outfield depth and is eligible for postseason play if needed.
Daniel Vogelbach was re-instated from the 60 day IL. Angel Perdomo was moved from the 10 day to the 60 day IL and catcher Manny Pina went on the 10 day IL with left oblique tightness.
The Brewers also brought catcher Luke Maile and pitcher Justin Topa up from AAA Nashville
Injured infielder Eduardo Escobar is expected to come off the IL on Friday.
