08/28/2010 - Milwaukee, WI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Lorenzo Cain's RBI single in the 11th inning lifted the Milwaukee Brewers to an 8-7 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates in the second contest of a three-game set.
With Wilfredo Ledezma (0-1) on the mound, Ryan Braun singled to start the frame and moved to second when Prince Fielder reached base on a Neil Walker error. After Casey McGehee flied out, Cain punched a single to left to score Braun for the win.
Fielder clubbed two home runs while Braun added two hits and scored twice for the Brewers, who have taken the first two games of this set. Chris Capuano lasted just three innings in the start as he was touched for six runs on six hits with three walks.
Six Milwaukee relievers combined to pitch the remaining eight innings and gave up just one run on five hits with Kameron Loe (3-3) getting the win.
Chris Snyder hit a three-run home run while Jose Tabata and Walker each added a solo shot for the Pirates, who have lost eight of their last 11. Zach Duke went 5 1/3 innings and was charged with four runs on nine hits.
Milwaukee plated three in the seventh to tie the game. Braun singled to start the frame and, after Brian Burres took the mound, Fielder crushed a pitch deep over the wall in right-center to make it a one-run game.
Chan Ho Park then took the mound and gave up a single to McGehee before Cain reached base on a fielder's choice that saw McGehee forced out at second. Cain then stole second and moved to third on a wild pitch before Jonathan Lucroy hit a sharp grounder to third that Pedro Alvarez misplayed, allowing Cain to score and tie the game at 7-7.
The Pirates got on board in the first on Tabata's one-out, solo homer, his fourth of the year.
Milwaukee answered with a pair of runs in the bottom of the frame. With the bases loaded and one out, McGehee hit into a fielder's choice that saw Rickie Weeks score. Cain followed with an RBI single for a 2-1 lead.
