Brewers Score 7-1 Win Against Chicago
Austin Brice pitched a gem to lead Milwaukee to victory over the Chicago Cubs, 7-1. Brice, now 1-0, was the winner. In 5 innings, he gave up 4 hits, while striking out 3, walking 2, and allowing 1 run. The National League Central Division-leading Brewers have a record of 31-15.

Billy Wood had a big 2-run triple for the Brewers in the top of the second inning. With Milwaukee leading 3-0 and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he got a curveball from 29-year old right-handed pitcher Mariano Ortega and swatted a triple to right-center. It was his 1st triple of the season, and more importantly, it put the Brewers ahead, 5-0.

"Austin just settled in and did what he does," said Milwaukee manager Doug Dascenzo.
