The Brewers piled up eight runs in the third inning as they mauled the Cubs, 15-2, in Chicago. Hernan Perez homered and drove in five runs for Milwaukee. Travis Shaw and Orlando Arcia each had two-run doubles to highlight the breakout eighth inning. Chase Anderson pitched five shutout innings to earn the win.
Mike Montgomery got chased after two-plus innings and took the loss for the Cubs. Kyle Schwarber put them on the board with a solo shot in the eighth. Chicago needs a win Sunday to prevent the sweep.
Final game of the series is this afternoon at Wrigley Field.
