McGehee leads Brewers over D'Backs
Baseball Betting Lines
08/12/2010 - Milwaukee, WI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Casey McGehee finished 4-for-4 with a homer, three RBI and scored three times as Milwaukee snuffed out Arizona, 8-4, in the finale of a four-game set from Miller Park.
Craig Counsell had a pair of hits and also knocked in three runs for the Brewers, who snapped a three-game slide and salvaged a tilt in the series.
Randy Wolf (9-9) got the win after allowing seven hits and four runs with eight strikeouts and four walks in six innings.
Stephen Drew hit a three-run shot and Rusty Ryal added an RBI single for the D-Backs, who saw their three-game win streak ended.
Rodrigo Lopez (5-11) was torched in defeat for seven hits and seven runs with three walks over five full frames.
McGehee hit a one-out solo homer in the fifth for a 7-4 Brewers edge, then with runners on first and second with two out in the seventh, Lorenzo Cain's infield single compounded by a Mark Reynolds fielding error plated Prince Fielder for an 8-4 game.
In the eighth, Zach Braddock walked three D-Backs batters and recorded one out, leaving John Axford to clean up the mess. He wound up stranding the sacks full by retiring the next two batters.
Axford created another mess in the ninth before recording his 17th save, walking Adam LaRoche, Reynolds and Ryal with one out. Drew helped him escape trouble by grounding into a game-ending 4-6-3 double play.
Milwaukee tallied three times in the first inning on back-to-back RBI singles from McGehee and Counsell, followed by a passed ball from Arizona's catcher allowing McGehee to score.
It was 6-0 in the second as McGehee doubled in Corey Hart and Counsell followed with a two-run single, but the D-Backs stung for four runs in the fourth on Ryal's RBI single and a three-run blast from Drew.
After issuing two walks and a single following the homer, Wolf left the bases loaded in the frame by getting LaRoche on a flyout to left.
