ST. LOUIS (AP) — Brice Turang singled home Jackson Chourio in the 10th inning, and the Milwaukee Brewers beat the St. Louis Cardinals 3-2 on Saturday night.
Turang was 0 for 4 before lacing a two-out single to left off Jo Jo Romero (4-6), who pitched 1 2/3 innings.
Jared Koenig (6-1) pitched the final two innings to pick up the win.
Coupled with the Reds’ 6-3 win over the Cubs 6-3, the Brewers’ magic number to clinch the NL Central Division is one.
