Milwaukee Brewers (41-66) 0 0 7 1 0 1 0 1 0 10 11 2

Brewers Turn Back Kansas City, 10-8
The Milwaukee Brewers bested the Kansas City Royals by a score of 10-8, with designated hitter Jim Bottomley getting the main credit. On the day, Bottomley went 4-5 with a triple, a double, and 2 singles, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2 for the Brewers. Milwaukee reliever Jim Kaat picked up the win, upping his record to 6-8. Russ Kemmerer shouldered the loss. Jose A Nunez, credited with the save, is now 4 for 6 in save opportunities.

It could have been a different outcome for Milwaukee, had it not been for Rafael Furcal, the 29-year old second baseman . Furcal contributed a run-scoring ground out in the top of the fourth inning to put Milwaukee up, 8-6.

Furcal told the Milwaukee Gazette: "I was born for the big stage."

Milwaukee now has a 3-game win streak.
