After struggling at the plate for the better part of their current homestand, the Brewer bats came alive Saturday night.
Ryan Braun snapped an 0-16 dry spell with a home run in the 6th, adding a triple in the 7th which, along with a 3-run homer by Alex Gonzalez, powered the Brewers to a 9-4 win over the Rockies.
Marco Estrada started for the Brewers, in place of the injured Chris Narveson. He pitched very well, allowing just one run on two hits in five innings.
Milwaukee and Colorado will wrap up their three-game series tomorrow afternoon. First pitch will be delayed to 1:25 P.M. There will be a ceremony prior to the game that will see Ryan Braun accept his 2011 National League Most Valuable Player award.
