Astros Fall, 5-1, to Cruz, Brewers
In baseball, each game is unique. This one was no different.

Milwaukee right fielder Alex Cruz contributed to his team's 5-1 win over the Houston Astros. Cruz, who is tied for 5th in the NL in RBI with 84, went 3 for 4 with 1 run scored to lead the offensive attack for the Brewers. Seth Oltmans, the winning pitcher, improved to 5-5. He pitched 5.1 innings, giving up 6 hits and 1 run, while striking out 4 and walking 0.

In the top of the first of a scoreless game, Cruz hit a 3-run home run to put his team ahead.

"If you pitch well, you give yourself some opportunities," said Milwaukee manager Art Matlock.

The Brewers improve their record to 60-54 with the win over Houston.
