Brewers Earn 7-6 Win Versus Twins
The Milwaukee Brewers did just enough to secure a victory over the Minnesota Twins, 7-6, at Miller Park. Nobody did more than first baseman Alex Cruz. Milwaukee's record now stands at 46-56, placing them 4th in the National League Central Division.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the ninth. With one out, Cruz hit a cutter from Andres Martines for a run-scoring double. The Brewers, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"It's a good day to be a fan after a win like that," Cruz told the Milwaukee Herald.
